The Boys is likely to be wrapping issues up after its fifth season, however Amazon clearly would not need that success to finish, so a Soldier Boy prequel is now on the way in which.
Bear in mind when The Boys was imagined to be a satire of contemporary superhero media? Me too! However, cash talks, and what it is telling Amazon is to make one more spinoff of The Boys, this time targeted on Jensen Ackles’ character Soldier Boy. The present was introduced at a presentation targeted on the collection at San Diego Comedian-Con this week, the place showrunner Eric Kripke introduced Ackles on stage to hitch the opposite foremost solid, the place he initially revealed that Soldier Boy was going to be a collection common within the upcoming fifth season.
Ackles then went on to share a press release, saying: “We’re excited to announce the following unhinged chapter of The Boys Universe referred to as Vought Rising. The producers are writing the scripts proper now. It will likely be a lurid pulp saga prequel set in New York Metropolis on the daybreak of the Fifties concerning the humble but diabolical beginnings of the Vought Company. I will probably be starring as Soldier Boy.”
This was then adopted up with a message from Aya Money, who portrayed Stormfront on The Boys, a personality that may even seem within the prequel: “I believe this factor goes to be unimaginable. We’ve acquired all the pieces from Judy Garland to Joe McCarthy. How, I don’t know, I didn’t write it. However I’ve learn it, and it’s actually, actually good. I hope you’ll include us on this journey and luxuriate in your Comedian-Con.”
A launch date wasn’t introduced, although it is most likely a secure wager to imagine it can air a while after The Boys season 5 – which suggests it is seemingly fairly some time away, as Karl City not too long ago shared that the ultimate season is a couple of years away but.
