The highly anticipated fifth and final season of The Boys has finally received a release date. The teaser trailer, unveiled at the CCXP in São Paulo, offers a glimpse into the chaos that has engulfed Billy Butcher's team as they live under the tyrannical rule of Homelander. The Boys Season 5 is set to premiere on Prime Video in April 2026, with the first episode dropping on April 8 and the season finale airing on May 20. The show will pick up where the fourth installment left off, incorporating elements from Gen V Season 2. The teaser trailer showcases Karl Urban's Butcher rallying his team to resist Homelander's (Anthony Starr) brutal regime. Jensen Ackles' Soldier Boy is once again frozen, with Homelander keeping a watchful eye on him. The trailer also hints at the return of Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins, both of whom will appear in undisclosed roles. The final season promises to be a bloody and intense showdown between Homelander and Butcher's team. The official synopsis reads: 'In the fifth and final season, it's Homelander's world, completely subject to his erratic, egomaniacal whims.' The season will see Hughie, Mother's Milk, and Frenchie imprisoned in a 'Freedom Camp,' while Annie struggles to mount a resistance against the Supe force. Kimiko's whereabouts are unknown, but when Butcher reappears, ready to unleash a virus that could wipe out all Supes, the stage is set for a catastrophic confrontation. The Boys Season 5 will not be the last we've seen of the Prime Video franchise. A prequel series, Vought Rising, is in the works, focusing on Soldier Boy and Stormfront in the 1950s. The Boys prequel promises to delve into the origins of the Vought International universe, providing a fresh perspective on the characters and the world they inhabit.
