Everything to know about The Boys Season 5: From official title to release timeline of the final chapter!

After successful four seasons since 2019, The Boys has gained a massive fan following throughout these seven years due to its quirky plotline, thrilling action sequences, sarcastic and dark comedy elements. Recently, Amazon Prime Video dropped the disappointing news that the satirical superhero series is finally wrapping up with Season 5. The streamer shared some sneak-peeks, motion posters, and a potential release timeline of The Boy Season 5. Check out all the details below!

When to watch The Boys Season 5

Amazon Prime Video hinted that the fifth and final chapter of the superhero series is arriving in 2026, but the exact release date is yet to be confirmed. Showrunner Eric Kripke teased that Season 5 is coming "reasonably" soon. Although The Boys is ending, it doesn't mean the franchise is ending as well, as the spin-off Gen V will continue to release.

The Boys Season 5 what to expect

Prime Video revealed that the fifth season is titled 'Scorched Earth'. For now, fans can expect a massive war with Homelander becoming the global dictator. Meanwhile, Butcher's rogue mission and the Gen V characters are joining a growing superhero resistance against Vought, hinting at a thrilling summary of an epic finale for the anti-hero series.

Karl Urban recently gave some shocking hints to Screen Rant that Season 5 might see some unexpected deaths already from Epsiode 1, which might make fans' jaw dropped. The actor said, “I think the real thing to look out for in Season 5 on an emotional level, as far as the characters go, and your attachments to characters, there's going to be some big hits early on in the very first episode.”

One of the most exciting part of the final chapter is it will see crossovers with Gen V as its Season 2 finale saw Starlight and A-Train recruiting the students as part of their resistance group in 2025.

The Boys Season 5 motion posters

Along with the season title and expected release timeline, Amazon Prime Video also dropped two motion posters from The Boys Season 5. In their first picture we get to see Anthony Starr’s Homelander floating high in the space watching deadly explosions on Earth with a stern expression.

The other picture exhibits Karl Urban's Butcher holding a crowbar in his right hand while walking away from Vought's demolished headquarter, the powerful pharmaceutical and media conglomerate.
