Starring Karl Urban as Billy Butcher and Antony Starr as Homelander, among other notable actors, ‘The Boys’ is set to return in 2024 with its fourth season. This season promises not only the return of its beloved characters but also introduces a new Hollywood heavyweight, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, in a yet-to-be-disclosed role.
How many episodes does ‘The Boys’, Prime Video’s flagship series, have?
Fans of the wildest superhero series in history, adapted from the comics by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson and developed by Eric Kripke, are in for a treat this year with the fourth installment. After a two-year wait, the devotion of ‘The Boys’ fans, who were introduced to Tek-Knight in the 2023 spin-off ‘Gen V’, has been well rewarded.
The fourth season is expected to maintain the eight-episode format seen in the first three seasons. However, the release schedule will differ from the first season, which dropped all episodes at once. For the second and third seasons, released in 2020 and 2022, the first three episodes premiered simultaneously, followed by weekly releases for the remaining five episodes.
