When The Boys debuted in 2019, the world was more than ready for how the show skewered superheroes in manner of Garth Ennis comic books. This themes and the series’ tone felt timely despite Ennis beginning to publish the source material in 2005, and nowadays, it’s incredible to behold that Amazon is doing hero-villain stories in a more enduring manner than those former juggernauts known as the MCU and the DC(E)U. Some audience members like a little bite, you know And as it turns out, there’s a lot of those viewers.
Likewise, The Boys is thankfully addicted to the momentum and shows no signs of running out of debauched tales to tell. Going into 2024, we have witnessed how Gen V is also harnessing that energy for the younger generation of Supes, and a certain set of cameos suggests a few directions that The Boys will go during their fourth outing.
Now, let’s talk more about what to expect from The Boys‘ next season.
We gotta discuss stories, but first, obviously, we should expect some “crazy sh*t” to happen in the way that only The Boys brand can pull off. Prosthetic penis guru (and VFX wizard) Stephan Fleet has teased this telltale aspect because of course: “I’m excited for the cast of @TheBoysTV to see the crazy sh*t I’m cooking up in VFX! They really put a lot of trust in me.” Uh oh.
