In season 5 of The Boys, we expect to find America under the thumb of Homelander as he remakes the country in his twisted image. The supremacy of Supes will be bad news for humans, something that's evident from these newly released set photos.

We see that internment camps have been built across the country, with this one dubbed "Freedom Camp 47." Likely inspired by real-life concentration camps like Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen, it's an unsettling piece of imagery, particularly as they're located in modern-day America.

This camp also declares that "Freedom Sets You Free."

We'd imagine this is where Hughie and the rest of The Boys are being kept after their capture in the season 4 finale, and the design of the signage appears to be heavily inspired by both the American flag and Homelander's costume.

The series has never shied away from making its political leanings clear and season 5 promises double down on the idea of Homelander being a far-right icon.

"I clearly have a perspective, and I’m not shy about putting that perspective in the show," showrunner Eric Kripke said earlier this year. "Anyone who wants to call the show 'woke' or whatever, that’s OK. Go watch something else. But I’m certainly not going to pull any punches or apologize for what we’re doing."

"Some people who watch it think Homelander is the hero. What do you say to that? The show’s many things. Subtle isn’t one of them," he continued. "So if that’s the message you’re getting from it, I just throw up my hands."

You can check out these new photos from the set of The Boys season 5 in the Reddit posts below.

The Boys is based on The New York Times best-selling comic by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, who also serve as executive producers, and developed by executive producer and showrunner Eric Kripke.

Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, Neal H. Moritz, Pavun Shetty, Phil Sgriccia, Michaela Starr, Paul Grellong, David Reed, Meredith Glynn, Judalina Neira, Ken F. Levin, and Jason Netter also serve as executive producers.

In season 4, 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 and 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.

Season 4 of The Boys stars 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. Season Four also welcomed Susan Heyward, Valorie Curry, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

The Boys season 5 doesn't currently have a confirmed premiere date.

I love the show simply because of Butcher. However, the political sh1t is getting old ... realm fast.
I'm generally not too into politics; I watch superhero shows for escapism.

The country just showed that they are sick of the far left by voting in a terrible human being ... again. The left had control of the government for 12 of the last 16 years and the country is a complete mess.

This article (and I don't blame the author} is the perfect example of the extreme leftish not having a f***ing clue about our normal people's thoughts in this country.

@lazlodaytona - I get what you're saying. And while US is in its own league of politics, if you think that the american capitalist status-quo defendind democrats are a left wing party, you're mistaken. They just assume that left-wing people will always vote for them, because, on the scale, they are still technically more left than the republicans.
Looking from the outside, the problem in the US politics seems to be that people don't actually have a true pro-working class left-wing option. If I lived in US, I'd join the Peace and Freedom party.

Odin - 12/13/2024, 6:44 AM

@lazlodaytona - And sorry about the rant. I know that's not what this website is for, but I am just so sick of hearing about the US election all the time when I don't even live there.

elgaz - 12/13/2024, 6:54 AM

@Odin - I feel your pain dude. I live in Ireland. But 95 of the big TV shows are American and whilst I have little interest in USA politics (we have enough of that on our own soil to contend with), it seems that USA politics permeate through almost everything I watch or read. It's sometimes blatant references, other times it's more subtle, but no matter whether it's a TV show or a youtube channel or whatever, it seems like everyone has to get their point across. I miss the good old days of the 80s/90s when storylines in shows didn't have to mirror or amplify this red/blue divide in the country and people could simply agree to disagree on politics and still go out and have a beer together.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 7:05 AM

@Odin - use to... Thats what he is saying.. The left has gotten too far left and now original normal democrats (kennedy, gabbard, Hell, Trump himself!) are warmongering wokes as opposed to social democrats. People forget Trump was a democrat his entire life until the year before he decided to run the first time. Elon Musk was the same. People are waking up. I was always a middle road guy. Now I feel no choice but to identify as right because of our shit bag 2 party system.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 7:06 AM

@lazlodaytona - Completely agree. Trump as a human is not good but he does know how to operate a business or run a country. When normal, original democrats like Kennedy, Gabbard and others turn to the right, thats a huge indicator of where that side is going.

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 7:48 AM

@lazlodaytona - The country is a mess because of Trump, man. He turned the economy into a nightmare for the working class. The worst thing you can say about the Biden administration is that it wasn't able to clean up Trump's mess fast enough. And because the media, half the government and a corrupt supreme court carry Trump's water, that's why so many people are tricked into thinking that they would be better of with a depraved, corrupt, senile, incurrectionist billionaire class sexpest.

Kamala had only three and a half months and came within 1% of winning. That tells me way more about what America actually wants.

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 7:56 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - So you prefer one-party authoritarian system instead? How does that make sense?

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 8:06 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - Trump ran every business he ever had into the ground and lost most of his inherited wealth. And that's also what he did to the US economy and the job market last time he had control of it, which is why he was voted out. Gabbard is corrupt and opportunistic and Kennedy is literally insane and loves to play with animal carcasses. These are not normal original democrats, they are fringe weirdos who unsurprisingly fit better into the maga cult of weirdos, sexpests, pedophiles, human traffickers, puppy killers, conspiracy theorists and insurrectionists.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:07 AM

@Drace24 - umm no. Please re-read or have someone read the comment to you, and think more.
use some interpretation.
2 part system. you have 2 choices. This way, or that way. When both suck, what happens?
I do not like party systems. Its lessens your available choices. Which, btw is part of the reason Harris lost. The ACTUAL democrat voters were not presented a choice. They were told this is your candidate. Hows that for authoritarian?
At least the Republicans went through the proper channels.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:10 AM

@Drace24 - Well. you are very much confused.
Our economy was amazing from 2016 to 2020. Prices were lower and people were happier.
Lets talk about weirds, sexpests, pedophiles and that such.. Clintons? Obamas? Bidens? (hey kid, rub my leg hair in this pool after i smell your face)
OoooOO I have an idea!!! lets push sex books on kids/ children (anyone under 18, legally* Federal law) and offer to change their sex on taxpayer money!!! Hey!! lets get transgender and dragqueens to introduce themselves to children and talk about how great it is to have sex with the same gender.

Sexpest?

captainwalker - 12/13/2024, 8:11 AM

@Drace24 - Math much bro ?

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:11 AM

@Drace24 - BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Please do not pass go, and do not collect 200.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:13 AM

@Drace24 - wait wait . I forgot one.
Human traffickers:
What do you call someone who takes people across a boarder illegally, flies or busses them to different places in the dark of night and attempts to hide it from everyone else?

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 8:16 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - I call them Matt Gaetz. Who Trump recently tried and failed to give position in his cabinet.
Or Jeffrey Epstein, who was best buds with Trump and whose rape plane Trump used for campaign events.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:18 AM

@Drace24 - lmao. Ok yeah so Democrats and a Matt Gaetz.
What about Clinton? didnt he hang with ol' Epstein? yep. sure did. OH! and vouched for him... a lot...
Hey do you remember that male prostitute that Pelosi's husband picked up and tried to not pay?

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:27 AM

@captainwalker - is your name from madmax

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 8:30 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - Trump inherited the roaring Obama Economy but left the White House with a record high deficit, several lost trade wars, a negative job growth and deeply mishandled pandemic response that left millions threw into poverty and deregulated companies that were now free to do as much price gouging as they want, which created the inflation we are still dealing with. That's why he was thrown out. Meanwhile Trump still has no healthcare plan and no economic plan, beyond more trade wars and tariffs (aka price increases that you will have to pay.)
A common strategy of the GOP to throw America into chaos and blame the left for it in order to run on it next time, trusting that you will be dumb enough to fall for it.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:34 AM

@Drace24 - God you are really really wrong. Im sorry. Id love to correct you but its not worth it. Please do more research with an open mind. You will thank yourself later.
But while we are talking about stuff, do you want to rub my leg hair?

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:38 AM

@Drace24 - I do have to say though, how wrong you are.
Roaring Obama economy? you mean all his borrowed china money that he made Stimulus because his economy crashed our housing market? Drove up our gas prices (trump fix). Hey what was the borrow rate under trump? 2.4% something like that? where are we now? barely under 8%?
umm
pandemic response? really? he did a fine job dealing with a situation never before seen in our modern history. do not even go there. Youre probably one of those [frick]s who rides around in their car with gloves and a face shield on.

How was their price gouging with cheaper prices? Im confused on that one.. we paid less for everything under trumps first term...? you lost me. sorry.

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 8:38 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - Okay. Not sure what argument that's supposed to be. We didn't nominate Clinton or Pelosis husband recently. If these two are beneath you for that reason, why not pedophile sex trafficker Matt Gaetz? Or Trump who, again, was Epsteins closest associate according to his own files and who cheated on his wife with a pornstar. And then he used your donations to keep her quiet about it. Seriously! The passion with which you weirdos throw yourselfs at the boots of these people must be some kind of degradation fetish. XD

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:41 AM

@Drace24 - says the hardcore lib-tard who wants to turn a blind eye to his liberal gods doing way worse than other politicians ever did. Ever. I do not like Matt Gaetz so I will not defend him. But you need better shade to throw at Trump other than sex. Because you lib tards are the crazy sex people. How can you even make those arguments against 1 person of a political party when the opposite party has done EXACTLY the same thing you are saying but worse?
are you literally that [frick]ing confused? do you even know how to read for gods sakes?

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 8:58 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - The housing market crash did happen under Obama... and he also got us out of it before the end of his second term. And it largely happened in the first place because, surprise, banking deregulations by George Bush. Almost as if, I dunno, conservatives have a hard on for giving rich people more money and power at your cost. Weird how that works. (Also, fun fact about the housing crash: Trump thought it would be the best time to open a real estate company... which predictably crashed shortly after. I believe his sixth bankruptcy. The economic genius, everybody! lol)

Trump didn't fix gas prices. They went down on their own because millions of people stopped driving and working from home, because it was a pandemic. That's how supply and demand works.

I assume with "borrow rate" you mean the stock loan rate. Yeah that certainly came in handy for all the average working class hedgefund managers out there. (Maybe read your comments through before posting?)

Trump's covid response was nothing short of a nightmare. America had the highest percentual covid death rate in the world, even more than China. 1.22 million americans died on his watch. That's a higher american death count than all wars America has ever take part in combined. No other president in history oversaw such mass casualties. Sure, it was unique situation, but the entire rest of the world did a better job, while Trump went golfing, made daily briefing all about himself, waged war against his Surgeon General, gave bitterly needed masks and testing machines to Putin and told people to drink bleach and horse dewormer and that it will all magically go away in the summer, which it REALLY didn't.

Drace24 - 12/13/2024, 9:14 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - Do you have anything else to say except "No you!". Your inability to say anything beyond ad hominems, false equivalences and desperate whataboutisms is really telling. None of that addresses the fact that you made that [frick]ing weirdo president and defend his onslaught of bullshit, so forgive me for not believing that you actually care about any of this faux outrage of yours except to feel better in your own depravity. No matter what Pizzagate/Qanon/jewish spacelaser-bullshit you have heard on InfoWars or whatever, you do not have the moral high ground. You have successfully dug through rock bottom and you are either to spineless to admit it or too deeply entranched in this alt-right bubble to realize it.

And I successfully got you to reveal it. Bye.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 10:14 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - Drace blocked me

SonOfAGif - 12/13/2024, 12:29 PM

@lazlodaytona - I think you are misunderstanding the context of the show. Homelander will align with any industry that will help his agenda. He has hated regular humans since the show started and has always had moments where he wanted to enslave or murder countless people who disagree with him. He couldn't achieve that with Vought alone and aligned with politicians and used fear and murder to establish dominance for his vision of human enslavement and a Kingdom of his own.

TheOtherOn - 12/13/2024, 4:45 PM

@lazlodaytona - Only if majority of the population understood the real devil is "two-party system". Those who actually control and run America, will keep doing it behind the scenes. People think their "vote" means something but in reality they always vote for "the lesser devil" in this well constructed delusionary voting system.

TheOtherOn - 12/13/2024, 4:48 PM

@TheOtherOn -

captainwalker - 12/19/2024, 5:49 PM

@AgentofSH1ELD - Correct.

TheVisionary25 - 12/13/2024, 6:16 AM

I mean , this isn’t surprising since they mentioned last season that Homelander wanted to use Tek Knight’s prisons as internment camps for dissenters but still chilling to see nonetheless.

Anyway , been a fan of the show thus far so hopefully this season wraps it up well!!.

TheVandalore - 12/13/2024, 6:53 AM

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a professional wrestler. My in ring name was to be "The Butcher Matt Murdock" and my finisher was to be called "Butcher's Hook" which was a Powerbomb into the Lion Tamer.

Every time I watch the Boys and hear Butcher, it makes me feel a special tinge of pride lol pride I don't deserve lol but none the less...

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 7:12 AM

It sucks that they cant use source material to create a show. They have to instill a misguided sense of political self righteousness into it so the filmmaker feels like he has done something to make himself feel better.
He is a shit filmmaker if he cant use the vast amounts of material to create this show. I stopped watching halfway through 4 and wont be watching 5. too much bullshit.

captainwalker - 12/13/2024, 8:15 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - This show is going the way of CNN, the propaganda is just insulting at this point. Hollywood has really exposed themselves as nothing but useful whores by their handlers in return for wealth and " stardom ". Nothing short of selling their souls.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:21 AM

@captainwalker - I hope amazon cancels it. It started so good, but like all the crazy liberals now (they are not democrats) if they dont get their way they turn to crying and lying.
Its just really really sad that there is so much source material and this [frick]ing guy couldnt come up with a better story than shitaly attempting to insult half of American population because he doesnt like something politically.
Stick to the [frick]ing show bro.

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 8:30 AM

@captainwalker - Was thinking about this and people selling their souls for stardom.. Ever wonder if Bieber actually sucked off Diddy? I bet is was the other way around...

SATW42 - 12/13/2024, 9:21 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - "I hope amazon cancels it."

pssst, this is the last season, and it was announced as the last season before season 4 even started airing. You ask people if they know how to read but you don't even have full comprehension of the shit you are railing against.

SATW42 - 12/13/2024, 9:23 AM

@AgentofSH1ELD - "It sucks that they cant use source material to create a show."

You know the source material has Homelander end up in the white house, right?

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 10:10 AM

@SATW42 - comprehension and railing...
I DO know how to read and comprehend, though that does not mean I keep up with every tidbit of info across the medium. Thank you though! great information that this sad show wont continue...

AgentofSH1ELD - 12/13/2024, 10:12 AM

@SATW42 - si comrade.
It also had black noir in an entirely different role, not as a fool.
BUT what the source material didnt have is terrible comparisons between Homelander and Trump. That is forced dumb shit material that the writers/director wanted in there because waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
