Get your popcorn ready because The Boys is coming back for one last chaotic ride! The 5th and final season premieres April 8, 2026, with two episodes, then the rest of the series drops weekly until the grand finale on May 20. Amazon Prime Video revealed the big news at CCXP Brazil, where the cast and creator Eric Kripke also shared the first look trailer. Fans immediately felt hyped when they saw the reunion between Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, a surprise treat for everyone who grew up watching them as the Winchester brothers.

This hints at a messy storyline that will have viewers glued to their screens.
