The Boys returns for its fourth season next month, and if star Jack Quaid (Hughie) is to be believed, fans are in for the most batshit insane batch of episodes yet - which really is saying something when you consider some of the things we've witnessed over the course of the previous three seasons.

During an interview with Collider, Quaid said this latest season is his favourite yet, and while he didn't share any specifics when it comes to what viewers can expect from the finale, it sounds like we might be in store for quite a shocker.

"They always find a way to somehow find new beats, and they never repeat themselves," Quaid of the new season. "It’s been really cool. This is my favorite season that we’ve ever done. The writers have topped themselves." He went on to add that there were several moments that shocked him when he first got the scripts too, especially towards the end of the season."

"There are certain things in this season when I read them that I audibly gasped," he continued. "I really didn’t see a lot of the beats coming, and that’s very hard to do for a person who’s been on the show for four seasons. The writers just really outdid themselves. The ending is awesome. The ending is f*cking nuts. It’s insane. I’m talking about The Boys, so I can swear."

Having had an early look at season 4, we can say... nothing! But things do indeed get bloody diabolical.

The Boys was recently renewed for a fifth run, and the working of the announcement indicated that there will be at least one more after that.

"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," reads the official season 4 synopsis. "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."

Returning cast members include 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, along with new recruits Susan Heyward, Valorie Curry, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

The first three episodes of The Boys season 4 will be available to stream from June 13th, with new instalments dropping weekly through to the season finale on July 18.

I've not read the comics it's based on, but Hughie in the series seems to be the most annoying and least interesting character.

As the main character I get that the audience kinda needs to follow him to buy into everything else that's going on, so i really hope season 4 delivers on him.

@bobevanz - a whole 9 weeks (and a bit depending on your region) before it comes out? i'm use to them going on presale 4 to 6 weeks before but is 9 weeks normal? I'm asking honestly.

Duly noted, mate. 👍🏼 Don't have the luxury of IMAX over here, so I'm waiting for two weeks prior to order the DCP for our open-air summer screen.

@UniqNo - Probably because the summer movie list is light, and they're desperate for a win lol

@bobevanz - That's what i was thinking....getting a head start on those opening weekend number. Less competition is good. Maybe it will get close to the 1 Billi, i doubt it though.

@UniqNo - yeah. Having ur girlfriend who u were going to propose to then see her slaughtered by a speedster, who didn't stop but for 3 seconds to say he was sorry, then zoom on (pun intended), is not interesting at all 🤔😐
I love Hughie, his relationship with starlight, and his sudden use of V like Butcher's, that interests the heck outta me.

@lazlodaytona - what happened to him got my attention, but him as a character is boooooring.

@UniqNo - I can respect that. And agree he gets too far off to the side too often.
Since he's the first human to see the awful effects of the Supes, I hope they can redeem his arc.

Hope they tighten things up with the dialogue/humor. IT just feels like they've been getting too relaxed and getting into a bit of cocksure cruise control. Season 3 was pretty awesome, but as of now I still feel like the show is losing its charm.

@IAmAHoot - I guess that would happen once the show gets “older” and isn’t as fresh anymore as it was back when it first came out

Plus , if part of the charm was the crazy shit they got away with and they tried to outdo that every season then it would lose it a bit because you just become desensitized to it after a point.

"[frick]ing nuts"? Sounds like some nuts were "a-salted".

I'm sure it will be something disgusting, violent and/or sexual for shock value as well as political but only aimed at str8 white people.

This review sums the show up pretty well, IMO:

Cool , looking forward to it as someone who has been a big fan of the show thus far!!.

However I’m still hoping they end the show in the next season or maybe 2 because just going by the trailers , it seems like the story is building to its climax so makes sense to end it sooner then later otherwise it could be unnecessarily stretched if isn’t for some already.

@TheVisionary25 - Yeah I agree. The show has been fantastic thus far but it needs to end on a finite note where the story isn’t stretched out for too long. Another two seasons is more then enough to end it soundly. Looking all the more forward to this season.

Either Jack Quaid is just adding to the hyperbole to promote this upcoming season or maybe it’s about time one of the boys takes one for the team and bites the bullet…. If it were up to me I’d sacrifice Frenchie and or Kimiko. The two supporting characters with least amount of value story-wise. They can afford to kill them off which will intensify the stakes whilst keeping things tight. A character death is due now. We shall see.

@TheMetaMan - I suppose Butcher's going to bite it

Every season is just build-up for the next. Repetitive.

I’ve loved each season (season two was the weakest though) so I’m sure this will be no different.
