This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.The Boys season 5 first look confirms Homelander is a harbinger of the apocalypse, teasing the destructive events that will unfold in the final episodes. The Boys season 5 will end the main series in the superhero franchise, with the group fighting Homelander and Vought one last time. Butcher's fight with the Seven's leader seems poised to take center stage.
Now, The Boys has released the first two posters for season 5, featuring Homelander and Billy Butcher. The first poster sees Butcher standing next to what looks like a wrecked Vought tower, a crowbar in hand. The second shows Homelander looking down at a burning Earth from space, with flaming, apocalyptic explosions erupting below. Check out the posters here:
The posters promise a final showdown between The Boys' core characters, who have been at each other's throats since season 1. Butcher is now in possession of a virus that could wipe out all of Supekind, while also having uncontrollable powers of his own from misusing V. Homelander, meanwhile, has the US government's backing, who've declared Supe-led martial law.
The Boys season 4 ended with every member of the team, aside from Butcher and Starlight, getting captured by Vought. A post-credits scene for the finale also confirmed Homelander's plans to wake Soldier Boy up. While it's unclear how all these puzzle pieces will fit together, it teases an explosive eight-episode finale for the Prime Video series.
More to come...
