Although the series has yet to be officially renewed for a fourth season, it sounds like development is already in motion. Given the massive popularity of “The Boys,” this comes as no surprise: Prime Video has offered a clear vote of confidence by green-lighting a live-action spin-off series, in addition to “The Boys: Diabolical,” the animated anthology that premiered earlier this month. Even in our superhero-saturated reality, the mothership series has managed to make a major splash, so why shouldn’t they traumatize us with yet another season?
For the sitdown, Urban was joined by fellow returning cast members Laz Alonso, Karen Fukuhara, Jessie T. Usher, Chace Crawford, showrunner Eric Kripke, and newcomer Jensen Ackles, the “Supernatural” alum who made his “The Boys” debut in the trailer. Teasing the upcoming season, Urban also said:
But while the duration of the interview hinted at plot details, specifics were unsurprisingly kept under lockdown. When pressed about the musical sequence starring Kimiko (Fukuhara), Kripke cryptically offered: “All I’ll say is that it’s a classic Hollywood number.”
“The fun thing about this season is that it really challenges all the characters with ‘how far are you willing to go? Are you willing to become the monster in order to defeat the monster?’ Every character comes to that precipice and has to make a choice about whether they’re gonna leap or not.”
Damn it, Jim. I’m a doctor, not a Butcher!

Since the fourth season of “The Boys” remains unconfirmed and the production schedule isn’t yet official, it’s unclear whether those “Star Trek”: cameras are still set to roll this year. Even after the February announcement, much of the cast seemed out of the loop and Urban’s latest update indicates not much has changed in that regard. In the same conversation, Urban told Variety: “I haven’t seen a script, I know nothing. But I would love to work with those guys again, so much fun, the best hang. We’ll see.”
