If you followed the first two episodes of the latest season of The Boys, you may have noticed Soldier Boy’s (Jensen Ackles) surprising resistance to the virus developed by Billy Bruto (Karl Urban) and his team. While the plan seemed to ensure the defeat of Homelander (Antony Starr) and the Supers, Ackles’ character remained intact, sparking a frantic race for a possible cure.
The series creator, Eric Kripke, told TV Insider that this immunity was designed to generate the season’s biggest twist, putting all sides in a contest: if Homelander obtains the solution, the end is near; if The Boys manage to get it, there is still hope for those they love. This dynamic fuels the engine of the plot, which revolves around the fight for survival amid a biological war. The premiere of the new episodes takes place on Wednesdays at 4 a.m. (Brasília time) on Prime Video. Stay tuned for upcoming updates and don’t miss any detail of the series that has been shaking pop culture.
