The Boys recently wrapped filming on its highly anticipated fifth and final season, so it was only a matter of time before more details about the plot surfaced. However, it came as a major surprise when the first teaser for the final installment of Eric Kripke‘s satirical superhero series dropped behind closed doors at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) on July 25. The footage was shared during Prime Video‘s Gen V panel in Hall H, marking the first look at the action that is to come when the show takes its final bow on screens next year.
Judging by the details of the sneak peek, as reported by Deadline, The Boys will be going out with a bang. The sneak peek offered a glimpse of some new and returning cast members, including Antony Starr’s Homelander, who was shown delivering a powerful declaration, as he proclaimed that the country will be a “safer, God-fearing nation” under his command — but it might not be so safe for him, as Kripke has already confirmed that there will be an epic final showdown between Homelander and Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher in Season 5.
