Fans of Prime Video’s The Boys, a superhero series, have been waiting anxiously for news of the show’s confirmed fourth season since the end of season three at the beginning of July. Series showrunner Eric Kripke has hinted at a return to Canada, where all three previous seasons were shot, suggesting that the cast and crew are reuniting. A tweet from Kripke just before he boards a trip to Toronto, Canada, serves as the tease. After this, The Boys’ official Twitter account tweeted, “Just some folks flyin’, nothin’ else to see here.” The post included a photo of Kripke’s flight, as well as photos of Antony Starr and Chace Crawford, who played Seven members Homelander and The Deep, respectively, as well as photos of Karen Fukuhara, who plays Kimiko, and Jack Quaid, who plays Hughie.
Some have extrapolated this to mean that production on season 4 of the critically acclaimed show is soon to begin. Karl Urban, who plays Billy Butcher on the show, spoke with Steven Weintraub at the end of June, and at the time, he claimed that production for season four of The Boys will begin in roughly two months. “Yeah, I believe the 22nd of August is when we’ll begin airing Season 4. So, I’m coming back and turning on Butcher again, and I can’t wait. It’s a great group of people to hang out with; we work hard but still have a lot of fun, and I’m excited to see where the writers go with the characters next season. In addition to the previously stated performers, Tomer Capon, Jessie Usher, Colby Minifie, Erin Moriarty, and Laz Alonso will all be back for the upcoming fourth season of The Boys.
Fans are still holding out hope that Jensen Ackles and Dominique McElligott will return for Season 4, despite the cliffhanger ending of Season 3. Cameron Crovetti, who played Homelander’s son Ryan in seasons 2 and 3, has been promoted to a series regular, while Valorie Curry and Susan Heyward have also been revealed as joining the cast as the superheroes Firecracker and Sister Sage, respectively. The animated spin-off The Boys Presents: Diabolical premiered in March, and a young adult series centred on superheroes attending a college controlled by Vought, Gen V, is set to premiere in the near future.
Season 4 of The Boys have not yet had any more information revealed.
