Prime Video just dropped a trailer for the fifth and final season of its dark satirical superhero series The Boys, which premieres on Wednesday, April 8. The season 5 trailer offers a lengthy look at what’s to come after four Boys seasons and two seasons of the spin-off show Gen V.
The trailer presents a huge problem for the show’s protagonists fighting Homelander (Antony Starr) — he could become immortal. Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) seems willing to wipe out every supe on the planet to prevent it.
The trailer also includes a humorous reunion between Homelander and his dad, Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles).
“I need you, father,” Homelander says.
“Is this some kind of incest thing?” a confused Soldier Boy replies.
The trailer reminds us that a variety of Boys characters’ fates are up in the air, including Starlight (Erin Moriarty), Hughie (Jack Quaid), A-Train (Jessie T. Usher), The Deep (Chace Crawford), Mother’s Milk (Laz Alonso), Frenchie (Tomer Capone), Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara) and more.
The preview also includes Gen V actors Jaz Sinclair and London Thor, who play Marie Moreau and Jordan Li, and teases a reunion between Supernatural alums Jared Padalecki, Misha Collins — who are joining the season 5 cast in unknown roles — and Ackles.
