What the Future Looks Like for The Boys Franchise
While the comics concluded years ago, The Boys franchise has never been bigger thanks to the ongoing streaming series and numerous spin-offs from Amazon MGM Studios. Currently, the mainline The Boys series is quickly approaching its fifth and final season on Prime Video, which will premiere on April 8.
Fortunately, fans still have plenty of The Boys to look forward to in the near future, thanks to its numerous spin-off series, such as Gen V and the upcoming Vought Rising. Sreaming series creator and showrunner Eric Kripke opened up about the future of the franchise, explaining, "We have a plan for Gen V Season 3, and we're psyched about it, but we need enough viewers to watch Season 2 to justify Season 3."
Similar sentiments apply to The Boys' expanded live-action universe. "[The] same applies to Vought Rising Season 1," Kripke continued. "We have plans for a Season 2, if we can. They've been nothing but supportive, and they're giving us our opportunities. But it's a business, and we also have to deliver. So hopefully the audience shows up. As long as there's an interesting story to tell and new facets to reveal, I'm in. Without spoiling anything, I think the universe post-The Boys Season 5 is such a fascinating universe, there's a lot to explore."
The Boys Bloody Blind Bags from Dynamite Entertainment are set to make their way into comic book stores everywhere this April.
