Prime Video delivered one of the biggest moments of CCXP Brazil as more than 3,000 fans packed the Thunder Stage for the news they’ve been waiting for: the fifth and final season of The Boys will premiere on 8 April 2026. The announcement set the crowd alight as showrunner Eric Kripke appeared alongside cast members Erin Moriarty, Laz Alonso, Karen Fukuhara, Tomer Capone, and Colby Minifie for an explosive celebration of the hit series.
The panel revisited the most shocking and beloved moments from across the show’s run before dropping an electrifying first look at the final chapter with the official teaser. Fans can expect a brutal, unfiltered send-off worthy of one of TV’s most talked-about series.
When Does The Boys Season 5 Release?
Season Five of the multi-Emmy Award-winning series will debut on 8 April 2026 with a special two-episode premiere. New episodes will launch weekly, building to a massive series finale on 20 May 2026. Like previous seasons, the series will stream exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
What to Expect in the Final Season
The endgame is here – and it’s darker than ever. In Season 5, “It’s Homelander’s world,” as the Supe dictator’s erratic whims dominate society.
Here’s how the final season shapes up:
-
Hughie, Mother’s Milk, and Frenchie are imprisoned in a terrifying “Freedom Camp.”
-
Annie January/Starlight leads a resistance that’s outnumbered and outpowered.
-
Kimiko is missing without a trace.
-
And Butcher, armed with a virus capable of wiping out every Supe alive, returns to set a world-changing plan in motion.
The stakes could not be higher. Expect major turns, major losses, and the full-scale showdown fans have been waiting for.
The Team Behind the Phenomenon
The Boys is based on the New York Times best-selling comic by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, who both serve as executive producers. The series is developed by executive producer and showrunner Eric Kripke – best known for Supernatural – and produced by Sony Pictures Television, Amazon MGM Studios, Kripke Enterprises, Original Film, and Point Grey Pictures.
