Amazon Prime announced in September 2021 that The Boys had been renewed for a fourth season. The Boys fans are anxiously waiting for the fourth season of the Amazon Prime show. The third season left fans on the edge of their seats with the shocking cliffhanger of Homelander’s son, Ryan, killing his mother, Becca.
The fourth season is expected to be even more intense and action-packed than the previous seasons. The announcement came just a few weeks after the show’s third season premiere, which has been receiving rave reviews from fans and critics alike. But what should fans expect for the upcoming season? Here are some ideas.
1. Release Date
Amazon Prime has not officially announced the release date for The Boys season four. However, fans can expect the season to premiere in the latter half of 2022. While this may seem like a long wait for fans, it’s important to remember that creating a show as complex and visually stunning as The Boys takes time and effort.
The previous seasons were released in July, but the fourth season will likely be released later than usual due to the pandemic-related delays. Of course, there is always the possibility that Amazon Prime could surprise us with an earlier release date for season four. Fans of the show will have to exercise a bit of patience, but we’re sure it will be worth the wait.
2. The Boys Spin-Off Show
The streaming giant has just announced a new spin-off show set in the same universe titled Gen V. It will explore the origins of the supes, focusing on the first-ever generation of superheroes. The Boys has already given us a glimpse into the corrupt and twisted world of supes, but Gen V promises to take us even deeper into their history and shed some light on how they came to be. However, fans can expect the launch in 2024, possibly after the fourth season of The Boys ends.
3. The Boys Crossover
The Boys’ creator, Eric Kripke, has teased a potential crossover between the current and past seasons of the same show. He hinted that the upcoming season might feature some characters from the past seasons, which could lead to some interesting storylines.
Kripke’s comments have sparked much speculation among fans, with many wondering which characters from the past seasons could make a comeback. Some have speculated that Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher, a significant character in the first two seasons, could return.
4. Victoria Neuman Storyline
The third season of The Boys introduced the character of Victoria Neuman, played by Claudia Doumit. Neuman is a congresswoman revealed to have superpowers and is responsible for the heads of state exploding. The character’s story arc is expected to continue in the fourth season, where she will likely face repercussions for her actions.
5. Who is Butcher?
Billy Butcher, played by Karl Urban, is one of the central characters of The Boys. Butcher is a former SAS soldier who leads the titular group, The Boys, in their mission to take down corrupt superheroes. Butcher is a complex character driven by his hatred for superheroes but also has a softer side that he rarely shows.
In the third season, Butcher’s story arc takes a surprising turn when he discovers that his wife, who he believed to be dead, is alive and raising Homelander’s son. Butcher’s character is expected to continue to evolve in the fourth season as he navigates his conflicting emotions towards his wife and son.
Conclusion
The Boys season four is expected to be another thrilling ride for show fans. There is much to look forward to with the spin-off show, potential crossovers, and the continuation of the Victoria Neuman and Butcher storylines. Although the release date is currently unknown, fans can rest assured that it will be worth the wait when The Boys season four does arrive.
