Since its debut, The Boys has been synonymous with provocation, social satire, and ruthless action.
Its fourth season, released on June 13, 2024, left its mark both with its narrative and its emotional depth. Today, a year later, the series' universe continues to expand.
Although the fifth season has yet to premiere, 2025 offers a vibrant landscape of new productions and developments that will keep the spirit of The Boys alive until its conclusion.
Fourth season review:
between praise and criticism
Season 4 was met with mixed reviews. Many fans applauded the development of characters like Butcher and Homelander, as well as the moral tension that permeated each episode. However, some critics noted that it was a less chaotic and transgressive season than previous seasons, something that divided viewers.
The ending, however, generated a consensus: it was powerful and set everything up for a definitive climax. The relationship between Butcher and Homelander reached a new point of no return, consolidating the conflict that has been the central axis of the entire story.
Season 5:
in production and with estimated date
The fifth and final season of The Boys is officially in production. Filming began in November 2024 and is scheduled to run through mid-2025.
The premiere, as confirmed by Prime Video, is scheduled for sometime in 2026, consisting of eight chapters that will bring this story to a close.
Series creator Eric Kripke has stated that this season will be the story's "emotional climax" and has promised an intense conclusion, filled with deaths and irreversible decisions. "We're going to say goodbye with a bang. It's time for everything to explode," he commented in a recent interview.
The cast also shared their impressions. Karl Urban (Billy Butcher) said this was the "most emotionally demanding" shoot of the entire series. Antony Starr (Homelander) hinted that his character "still has a lot to show... and to fear."
Additionally, the return of characters such as Soldier Boy is expected, as well as the possible appearance of Jared Padalecki, (an actor recognized for his role as Sam Winchester in the Supernatural series), in a new role.
The universe is expanding:
projects in 2025
Although the end is approaching, The Boys isn't going away quietly. 2025 is shaping up to be a key year in the consolidation of the narrative universe, with several projects related to The Boys universe in development:
- Gen V – Season 2: The spin-off centered on young superheroes is in full production. Its premiere is scheduled for late 2025.
- Vought Rising: A 1950s-set prequel exploring the origins of Vought and starring Soldier Boy and Stormfront. Filming is set to begin in August 2025.
- The Boys: Mexico: This new spin-off will be set in Mexico. Although still in development, it's already generating high expectations for its regional focus and narrative potential.
A year after its fourth season, The Boys not only remains relevant, but also strengthens its position as one of the most daring and talked-about franchises on television today.
With its fifth and final season in full swing and several spin-offs on the way, 2025 will be a pivotal year for fans who closely follow this brutal, provocative, and, above all, unforgettable story.
