Prior to Thursday’s big three episode Season 4 premiere, showrunner Eric Kripke confirms Season 5 will be the last for The Boys.
“Season 5 will be the Final Season!,” Kripke tweeted. “Always my plan, I just had to be cagey till I got the final OK from Vought. Thrilled to bring the story to a gory, epic, moist climax. Watch Season 4 in 2 DAYS, cause the end has begun!”

Back in 2020, since Kripke’s Supernatural lasted 15 seasons, he was asked how many seasons did he think The Boys would have, which at the time he didn’t bank on but said five.
Q: @TheBoysTV @therealKripke #AskTheBoys how many more seasons of the boys do you guys have planned?

What is The Boys Season 4 about?
Season 4 premiers Thursday, June 13 featuring the first three episodes, with one per week after that through July 18.
In Season Four, 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.
Butcher, with only months to live, has lost Becca’s son and 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.
The Boys stars 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. Season Four will welcome Susan Heyward, Valorie Curry, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
