‘The Boys’ Creator Has “An Ending In Mind” For The Show After Initially Planning Five Seasons

The Boys are back in town, and they might be here to stay for a while.

As Season 4 of the Prime Video superhero series soars back to the streamer this month, showrunner Eric Kripke revealed his plans for the future of the series, which is based on the comic book of the same name.

“I am – without hyperbole – literally the worst person in history at predicting how long their show should go,” he said in the latest issue of SFX Magazine after his last show, Supernatural, lasted for 15 seasons.

“No one in the entire history of the entertainment business has been more wrong than me, giving interview after interview on how I thought Supernatural should end after five years,” added Kripke.

He reasoned, “So I would be crazy to speculate on how many seasons any show should go. I’m not going to make that same mistake again. But, yes, I do have an ending in mind.”

In 2020, Kripke told fans that his “rough idea” for The Boys was “five seasons total,” acknowledging at the time, “But I also know better than to say how many seasons a show is gonna have.”

The Boys received an early renewal for Season 5 last month ahead of this month’s Season 4 release.

Following Supernatural‘s 15-season run on The WB and CW from 2005 to 2020, star Kripke reunited with star Jensen Ackles for Season 3 of The Boys. Jeffrey Dean Morgan also joins the cast for Season 4.

The Boys Season 5 premieres June 13 on Amazon Prime Video.
