The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke has offered up guessing when the Prime Video series will conclude, but he does have an ending in thoughts.

Eric Kripke had initially stated that he envisioned The Boys lasting “five seasons total,” but the Prime Video series was renewed for a fifth season final month, with no indication it would be the final. Plans certainly modify, and whilst Kripke may well not know when The Boys will conclude, he does have an ending in thoughts for when that day comes.

“You can’t build a show that’s about these two forces of Homelander and Butcher slowly closing in on each other without bringing that to a head,” Kripke told Empire. “Whenever that last episode occurs, I know what happens.” The Boys has been a huge accomplishment for Prime Video, turning into a complete-on franchise with numerous spin-offs, like Gen V, The Boys: Diabolical, and the upcoming The Boys: Mexico. As the franchise expands, Kripke says he knows how significant it is “that we do not f***ing sell out.“

In a separate interview with Inverse, Kripke acknowledged that he really should quit attempting to guess how quite a few seasons his shows will final. The most noteworthy instance is Supernatural. Kripke had a 5-season strategy for the series, but it wound up lasting a whopping fifteen seasons. “I have learned since then to not try to call the seasons as the person who, and this is without hyperbole, is literally the most wrong in entertainment history of how many seasons their show should go,” Kripke stated. “Someone pointed that out to me and I was like, ‘You’re proper. That’s ridiculous. I want to retain my mouth shut.’ And so I will.“

The official synopsis for The Boys season 4: “The world is on the brink. Victoria Neuman is closer than ever to the Oval Office and under the muscly thumb of Homelander, who is consolidating his power. Butcher, with only months to live, has lost Becca’s son and the rest of The Boys are fed up with his lies. With the stakes higher than ever, they have to find a way to work together and save the world before it’s too late.” The new season will premiere on Prime Video on June 13th.
