Prime Video’s The Boys is coming back in a few months, and the show’s fourth season, if the trailer is any indication, hints that democracy is about to come crashing down in a way that I’m sure isn’t meant to reflect anything happening in the real world.
If you were wondering when, exactly, we’ll once again be able to enter the world of The Boys—the series where those with superpowers bequeathed upon them by Vaught Industries are far from virtuous (and also tend to murder and maim in varying, gory ways)—you’re in luck. Today, Prime Video announced the show would start streaming the first three episodes on their platform on June 13, 2024. The remaining episodes will drop weekly, with the season finale releasing on July 18, 2024.
Need more of a teaser on what we’ll see in the upcoming episodes? We got a new poster today, which you can see a snippet of above. In it, it looks like Homelander and Congresswoman Victoria Neuman are still chummy, which isn’t that great for humanity.
If you’re still hankering for more, here’s the official synopsis for 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 as well as 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.
I’m sure everything will go totally fine and no one will get killed or maimed in incredibly graphic ways! That red stuff on Homelander’s face in the trailer is just ketchup, right?
