«Supernatural» debuted in 2005 and ran for 15 (!) seasons before ending in 2020. Padalecki and Ackles played Dean and Sam Winchester, while Collins embodied the role of the angel Castiel, who helped the brothers fight various mystical creatures. And yes, the series was directed by «The Boys» creator Eric Kripke.
Considering that the fifth season will be final for «The Boys», It is quite clear that the showrunners are preparing interesting and large-scale moves for the audience. Ackles will reprise his role as the Soldier in the sequel, while Padalecki and Collins’ characters have not yet been announced.
«The Boys» — is a satirical series about a world where superheroes have become corporate products and media stars. Behind the scenes of their public gloss lies cruelty, corruption and cynicism. Opposing them is a team of ordinary people led by Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) who are trying to expose the dark side of the superhero industry.
The series will return to Prime Video with a new season around 2026, although the official date has not yet been announced. Previously, Urban shared a few behind-the-scenes shots, but they didn’t provide any meaningful information about the renewal — except that the show will definitely be quite bloody.
«I’ve read a little bit of the season script, and it’s not only bigger, but also deeper», — said Anthony Starr, who plays the role of Homelander, in an interview. «We can expect a real increase in stakes and emotions, and the Boys will really have to work hard».
