We are more eager than ever to return to the harsh world of the superhero series The Boys after its creator released a fresh update.
“As of today, #TheBoys #Season4 is completely, totally, absolutely DONE,” tweeted Eric Kripke on April 10. I’m incredibly appreciative and proud of the actors and crew. Possibly the greatest we’ve done thus far. eager to share it with the world.”
The greatest to date? Very thrilling. On June 13, The Boys’ fourth season debuts with two episodes. The remaining episodes of the season are then broadcast weekly. Thanks to a graphic trailer that was shown during CCXP last year, we’ve also seen a preview of the upcoming season.
As well as debuting the first major look at Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s character, it also confirmed the storyline of the new show. The series begins when “the world is on the brink”, as the official synopsis reads: “Victoria Neuman is closer than ever to the Oval Office and under the muscly thumb of Homelander, who is consolidating his power. Butcher, with only months to live, has lost Becca’s son as well as his job as The Boys’ leader. The rest of the team are fed up with his lies. With the stakes higher than ever, they have to find a way to work together and save the world before it’s too late.”
We also know that the new season will pick up in the aftermath of the spin-off Gen V season 1 ending. However, it’s unclear whether the sad loss of actor Chance Perdomo will impact that at all, as filming on Gen V has been put on hold indefinitely.
