Antony Starr (Outrageous Fortune) previously spoke with Comicbook about the future of The Boys and said, “Hopefully we won’t outstay our welcome and we’ll go out when the time is right, when we’re in a good place. I think everyone’s astute enough, the powers that be are astute enough to make that call,” Starr told us. “That said, I think we’ve got a good few seasons in us yet. I think we’ve got a great cast of characters and really interesting premise, and I think, like you said, we can really go anywhere with this. I think it’s a pretty healthy show and I think there’s a good life for it coming up.”
The Boys is based on a comic book series by Garth Ennis (Constantine) and Darick Robertson (Happy!). The series follows a team of vigilantes as they face off against superpowered individuals who claim to be superheroes although they are corrupted by their celebrity status.
According to Comicbook, when the series was renewed for another season, Vernon Sanders, head of global television, Amazon Studios, wrote, “From our first conversation with Eric Kripke and the creative team about Season three of The Boys, we knew the show was continuing to get even bolder-an impressive feat considering the wild success of the Emmy-nominated second season. The Boys continues to push boundaries in storytelling while also being relentlessly entertaining and threading the needle on social satire that feels all too real. This stylized world of the series has incredible global reach and the viewership for opening weekend is proof of that. We are immensely proud of the cast and crew that has spawned a franchise for Prime Video, but and we look forward to bringing more of The Boys to our customers.”
Kripe had also stated, “Speaking for the cast and crew, we’re so grateful to Sony, Amazon, and most of all the fans for embracing the show and allowing us to make more. We’re thrilled to continue Butcher and the Boys’ fight against Homelander and the Seven, as well as comment on the insane world we’re living in. Also, this is the first time in history that exploding genitalia has led to further success.”
The Boys season four is scheduled to premiere sometime this year.
