The Boys Season 5 teaser trailer confirms a release date and hints at a major Supernatural reunion

After four bloody and brutal seasons, The Boys is ready to go out with a bang in 2026 for the show’s fifth and final season. On Saturday evening, during a CCXP Brazil panel in São Paulo, Prime Video unleashed a teaser trailer for The Boys Season 5 and confirmed the show’s return on Wednesday, April 8, 2026.

In The Boys Season 5 teaser trailer, Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) rallies his team – Hughie Campbell (Jack Quaid), Starlight (Erin Moriarty), Mother’s Milk (Laz Alonso), Frenchie (Tomer Capone), and Kimiki Miyashiro (Karen Fukuhara) for one last confrontation against Homelander (Anthony Starr) and others who would see the world go to ruin. The footage offers a first look at Jared Padalecki’s character, setting up a Supernatural reunion with Jensen Ackles, who returns for the final season as Soldier Boy. The nature of Padalecki’s character remains a mystery, although he looks rather stylish in his tracksuit. In addition to Padalecki and Ackles, Misha Collins is also a part of the upcoming events, adding more Supernatural goodness to the mix.

What’s The Boys Season 5 about?

Per the description for “The Boys” Season 5, “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.”

What can you watch after The Boys ends?

If you’re upset about The Boys coming to an end, don’t be; there’s plenty of ultra-violent superhero action in the pipeline with the spinoff Gen V, the animated series The Boys Presents: Diabolical, the upcoming Jensen Ackles-led prequel Vought Rising, and a Mexico-set series still in the works.
