Prime Video has released the first trailer for The Boys season 4 and it certainly looks as if the epic struggle between Homelander and Butcher is showing no signs of slowing down.
Created by Eric Kripke in 2019, The Boys has become one of the streamer's most important programs, with two successful spinoffs under its belt including Gen V and The Boys Presents: Diabolical. A third spinoff, The Boys: Mexico, was also just announced a few days ago.
In season 4, it seems Butcher doesn't have long to live but we're guessing that's only going to make him all the more desperate to take Homelander down, once and for all.
As usual, Hughie and Starlight will be caught in the crossfire, torn between going along with Butcher's "by any means necessary" tactics and the ever-present danger of Homelander deciding to throw caution to the wind.
The teaser also reveals that the Homelander-controlled Victoria Neuman is dangerously close to gaining the top seat in the Oval Office.
Joining the show in supporting roles in season 4 are Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Rosemarie DeWitt, Rob Benedict, and Elliot Knight.
There's no exact premiere date for season 4 just yet but Prime Video is committing to a 2024 release. Previously, Kripke told Variety, "...most of the editing is done, we're now deep into the music and visual effects. Marketing is starting to taxi their planes on the runway. There's a lot happening behind the scenes of The Boys Season 4, I can say that."
The Boys Season 4 Official Synopsis:
The world is on the brink. 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.
Starring Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capone, Karen Fukuhara, Colby Minifie, Claudia Doumit, and Cameron Crovetti, and welcoming Susan Heyward, Valorie Curry, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, The Boys Season 4 premieres 2024.
The boys is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It's the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about “The Seven,” and their formidable Vought backing.
