The Boys Season 5: The Final Season Announcement
The Farewell Message
A month ago, Amazon Prime Video gave the signal that “The Boys”, one of its most successful series, was about to last, announcing that the fifth season had received the green light to go ahead, even before the premiere of the fourth, scheduled for June 13. The ‘showrunner’ revealed that the fifth season will indeed be a farewell to the subversive (anti) superheroes.
Exclusive Statement
In exclusive statements to The Hollywood Reporter magazine, Eric Kripke said that he always imagined “The Boys” ending with the fifth season. Referring to the characters of Karl Urban and Antony Starr, he explained that “the series is a serialized story about Butcher and Homelander clashing slowly, and the series doesn’t work without either of them.” The series is inspired by the comic book of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, originally published in 2006 by Wildstorm (DC Comics), before being released by Dynamite Entertainment.
Plot Summary
Praised for its subversion of superhero adventure codes, “The Boys” follows a team with distorted versions of members of the Justice League, The Seven, and a group of renegades, The Boys, who try to demolish it. The fourth season arrives with the simultaneous premiere of three episodes, with the rest being released at the rate of one per week until the end on July 18th.
Official Synopsis
“The world is on the brink of the abyss”, says the official Amazon Prime Video synopsis. “Victoria Neuman is ever closer to the Oval Office, under the muscular wing of Homelander, who is consolidating his power. With just a few months to live, Butcher lost Becca’s son and his job as leader of The Boys. The rest of the team is fed up with his lies. Taking risks like never before, they will have to find a way to work together and save the world before it’s too late”, concludes the platform.
