There is a big update from Jensen Ackles for fans of The Boys series. The prequel series Vought Rising Season 1 has wrapped filming, as confirmed by Ackles on his social media.
On Instagram, Ackles shared a video of himself preparing to suit up as Soldier Boy. He said that wearing the Soldier Boy costume is no small task and requires a team of three to five people to help him get fully dressed.
Ackles wrote, “Finishing out with a bang! It’s been an absolute thrill ride. Thanks to the crew and cast, and all those who gave so much time and energy to make this happen. You’re all a bunch of psychos… and I love you for it.”
Vought Rising is a twisted murder mystery about the origins of Vought in the 1950s, the early exploits of Soldier Boy, and the diabolical maneuvers of a Supe known as Stormfront (Aya Cash), who was then going by the name Klara Vought.
