News The Boys The Boys Season Five Trailer Teases Its Supernatural Reunion They’re in fear for their lives and I don’t think the long arm of the law is the problem here By Molly Templeton | Published on December 8, 2025 Screenshot: Prime Video Comment 0 Share New Share Screenshot: Prime Video The end is coming for The Boys, Prime Video’s adaptation of the comic by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. It feels as if this show has been on forever, but this final season is only its fifth—though of course there’s the Gen V spinoff, the upcoming Vought Rising spinoff, the animated The Boys Presents: Diabolical anthology series, and a yet-to-come series set in Mexico. But first, Butcher (Karl Urban) and company need to save the world. That is the primary focus of this trailer—saving the world, what it costs, how it’s worth it even if everybody dies—and to that end, said trailer involves a lot of shots of individual characters looking angry and/or worried. The synopsis says: In the fifth and final season, it’s Homelander’s world, completely subject to his erratic, egomaniacal whims. Hughie, Mother’s Milk, and Frenchie are imprisoned in a “Freedom Camp.” Annie struggles to mount a resistance against the overwhelming Supe force. Kimiko is nowhere to be found. But when Butcher reappears, ready and willing to use a virus that will wipe all Supes off the map, he sets in motion a chain of events that will forever change the world and everyone in it. It’s the climax, people. Big stuff’s gonna happen. But the secondary focus—or the primary focus, depending on your feeling about a certain long-running CW series—is that this season includes a Supernatural reunion. Jensen Ackles has been on The Boys for a while now, playing Soldier Boy (who will be central in Vought Rising). But now here comes Jared Padalecki to join him! Padalecki, whose character is still a mystery, appears to walk into a room where Soldier Boy looks mighty confused by his arrival. (This could be tricky editing; it’s not entirely clear if Padalecki’s arrival is what Ackles’ expression is about.) In Soldier Boy’s defense, Padalecki kind of looks like a serial killer who stole Michael Sheen’s wig from the Underworld movies. To underscore this momentous occasion, the trailer is set to a vamped-up version of Styx’s “Renegade,” a song which memorably appeared in a second-season episode of Supernatural. The Boys is created by Eric Kripke, and along with everyone mentioned above, it also stars Antony Starr, Jack Quaid, Erin Moriarty, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capone, Giancarlo Esposito, Karen Fukuhara, Colby Minifie, Cameron Crovetti, Susan Heyward, and Valorie Curry. The final season begins April 18, 2026.[end-mark] The post <i>The Boys</i> Season Five Trailer Teases Its <i>Supernatural</i> Reunion appeared first on Reactor.
