While waiting for The Boys season 4 ending and the season 5 premiere go faster, though, by distracting themselves with a replacement TV show.

The Boys season 5 is estimated to premiere sometime in 2026.

Most of The Boys main season 4 cast are expected to reprise their roles in season 5, including Karl Urban as Billy, Jack Quaid as Hughie, Antony Starr as Homelander, Erin Moriarty as Starlight, Jessie T. Usher as A-Train, and Jensen Ackles as Soldier Boy. They (along with many other actors) will all return to close out their characters' stories, hopefully, giving them satisfying endings. Consequently, the anticipation for The Boys season 5 is high, making the wait all the more excruciating. The good news is that Amazon Prime Video has the perfect distraction.
