The final episode of The Boys Season 5 premiered at theaters in Los Angeles, followed by an exclusive screening of the first teaser trailer for Vought Rising, the spin-off of The Boys, for attendees. The trailer has now leaked online.
The series will reportedly explore Soldier Boy’s backstory, the early success of Compound V, and Stormfront’s hidden history. The story is expected to feature romance, betrayal, and the rise of Vought during the post-World War II and Cold War era.
In the trailer, Soldier Boy appears saying, “If you’re working on something, maybe I can help. I want to fight for the flag. I want to be a hero.”
One laboratory scene features a scientist handling what appear to be biological samples or Compound V-related materials, teasing the dark origins of Vought’s superhuman experiments. There are also references to murder accusations and the first successful Compound V injection.
The trailer ends with a conversation between Soldier Boy and Stormfront. Watch the trailer below.
In other brief shots from the Vought Rising teaser, several costumed heroes appear, all of whom are reportedly injected with V1 before the events of The Boys Season 5. Soldier Boy is shown wearing a retro-style superhero suit while speaking about wanting to “fight for the flag” and become a hero. Aya Cash also appears as Stormfront, alongside quick glimpses of Mason Dye as Bombsight, Will Hochman as Torpedo, and Elizabeth Posey as Private Angel. Watch it below.
