Even before the release of ‘The Boys‘ Season 5, fans received a surprising renewal update from Amazon Prime Video. Yes, ‘The Boys’ has been renewed for Season 5.
The show, created by Eric Kripke for Amazon, is based on the comic book series of the same name written by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. Kripke said, “‘The Boys’ could be the best job I’ll ever have. What other show allows me to write about politics, capitalism, family, and exploding genitalia, though not in that order. The cast and crew are deeply grateful to Sony Pictures Television and Amazon MGM Studios for the opportunity to tell this story for another season. My only problem is that since this year promises to be free of any conflict or misinformation, we’re not sure what to write about.” (Watch the footage released by Prime Video)
Katherine Pope, president of Sony Pictures Television Studios, said, “Since its premiere, devoted fans across the globe have been down with ‘The Boys’ for this unapologetically wild ride.” Pope added, “And we couldn’t be more proud of our producers, writers, cast, and crew who bring this genius insanity to life. Now, with a fifth chapter to their story, we can’t wait to see where Eric Kripke and ‘The Boys’ go next.”
