The Boys season 3: Everything we know so far New supes, new mysteries, Herogasm, and more.
By Nick Romano January 25, 2021 at 01:28 PM EST
Premiere date? A premiere date is not currently known at this time. First things first, the cast and crew have to get through filming. The stars are quarantining in Toronto for two weeks in early January before commencing with a full-on production with safety measures to contain any potential spread of COVID-19. Many live-action productions have experienced delays in trying to get back to work during the pandemic, while others found what you would call success in this new normal. Depending on how the schedule proceeds from here could determine whether we will see season 3 before the end of the year.
The Boys — and the Seven — are back in town. That means Karl Urban (Billy Butcher), Jack Quaid (Hughie Campbell), Karen Fukuhara (Kimiko), Laz Alonso (Mother's Milk), and Tomer Capon (Frenchie) will return as the covert militia group fighting to keep supes in check with their woman on the inside, Erin Moriarty (Starlight). It also means Antony Starr (Homelander), Jessie T. Usher (A-Train), Chace Crawford (The Deep), Dominique McElligott (Queen Maeve), and Nathan Mitchell (Black Noir) — nut allergy be damned — are also returning as members of the Seven, the world's premiere team of superheroes.
Claudia Doumit, who appeared as Congresswoman Victoria Neuman in season 2, will have an expanded role in season 3. Doumit and Colby Minifie, who plays Vought's frazzled head of Hero Management, Ashley Barrett, have been upped to series regulars.
While it seems Aya Cash's Stormfront was defeated in the season 2 finale, losing your limbs doesn't necessarily mean death these days. Cash teased to EW, "I think they've left the door open, but I also feel like there's not much left of her. She's not technically dead, but I think you'll just have to see season 3 to find out what happened to her, [or] if she's going to be around at all in her smaller form."
Among the cast's newcomers is Supernatural star Jensen Ackles. With the CW drama past its series finale, Ackles moves on over to The Boys in the role of Soldier Boy, dubbed the original superhero who was active during World War II. Another Supernatural veteran, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, was supposed to have some kind of role in season 3, but the pandemic is making that seem less and less likely. Actors must quarantine before interacting with the rest of the crew on set.
Kripke confirmed to EW that someone in the writers room "successfully pitched, not an extended return but a return of Love Sausage in season 3. So, there's more Love Sausage on the horizon." Actor Andrew Jackson played the supe with the super-extendable... ahem... love sausage in season 2, episode 6.
We can probably expect other actors to appear, like Giancarlo Esposito's head of Vought International, Stan Edgar, and Laila Robbins as Boys founder Grace Mallory, but that is the confirmed casting.
If Soldier Boy arrives on the scene, then certain other supes aren't far behind. Kripke confirmed to EW that the superhero team Payback will be a major part of the season 3 story.
In the original Boys comics from writer Garth Ennis and artist Darick Robertson, Payback was the world's second most popular team, operating at the same time as the Seven. Soldier Boy, a Captain America-esque character, was technically team leader, but he was constantly disrespected and overpowered by teammate Stormfront, the electrical-powered Nazi supe who's male in the comics but female in the show. Soldier Boy was kind of a weakling in comparison and spent all his time pining for a spot on the Seven.
In season 3 of the show, Payback fills a different function. "[Payback] was the Seven before the Seven," Kripke said. In other words, they were the world's first premiere superhero team during WWII. "We will be exploring the history of that team and all the members in it." Those members from the comics included Stormfront, Eagle the Archer, Crimson Countess, Tek Knight, Swatto, and Mind-Droid. Already we've seen how some of these characters have taken on various roles in the show. Season 2 saw Eagle the Archer (Langston Kerman) in the present day as a member of the Church of the Collective who recruited The Deep. Stormfront, who married Vought founder Frederick Vought, was active during WWII when she received the first successful Compound V injection. With her supe powers and extremely long lifespan, she became known as the superhero Liberty during the '70s, but then disappeared from the public. She reappeared decades later under the name Stormfront when she became the latest member of the Seven.
Tek Knight was also name-dropped by Ashley when she referred to a Tek Knight movie premiere. It's unclear how or if these same characters will be depicted as members of Payback in season 3. Soldier Boy himself was said to have lived till 1982 fighting Nazis in Germany, according to a memorial statue spotted in the second season. Flashbacks seem like the way to go, but as we've learned from Stormfront, supes can sometimes live much longer than we might expect.
The season 3 premiere episode, written by Craig Robertson, takes its name from Payback.
Through Stormfront, The Boys season 2 tackled the current climate in America with the public resurgence of white supremacy and alt-right extremism. Through Payback and Soldier Boy, season 3 will explore how the world got to this point.
"There's always been systemic racism and conflict and a lot of ugliness, yet always a fight to make things better," Kripke said. "Certain politicians like to pitch this somehow idyllic 'good old days' where everything was perfect and calm. That is complete and utter bulls---. It was never that way. So, by exploring the history of Vought in the history of America, we get to make some of those points. There was never an America when they say 'Make America Great Again.' It was always a struggle. That's the point. It's a struggle to make things better."
Aside from Soldier Boy, the big twist in the season 2 finale will give way to the main plot for season 3.
In a scene that saw the assassination of Church of the Collective leader Alastair Adana (Goran Višnjić), Victoria was revealed to be a supe. And not just any supe. She was the one who killed C.I.A. Deputy Director Susan Raynor (Jennifer Esposito), as well as all those people in court when their heads spontaneously exploded. She's now in a greater position of power as the appointed czar for the government's Office of Supe Affairs, and she's sneaking funds to Grace to create a task force designed to keep tabs on the supes. So, what the Boys were already doing, just with more government support.
"I don't want to say too much because there's a certain mystery in season 3 about exactly why Victoria is doing what she's doing," Kripke said. "But, yeah, I think the overall theme of the show is you need to have a healthy suspicion of your authority figures, and that goes for all of them."
The Boys, meanwhile, have since gone their separate ways since all of their crimes were pardoned. Hughie went off to work for Victoria, not knowing her true supe nature; MM reunited with his wife and daughter; Frenchie was determined to take Kimiko out dancing; and Billy is "on the edge as a really fraught character," Kripke teased.
The Seven is also a much different team. Starlight was publicly exonerated and welcomed back after Queen Maeve blackmailed Homelander with a recording from the Flight 37 tragedy. A-Train was brought back, too, but The Deep is still on the outs. With Stormfront gone, Vought will likely look to fill some spots.
"[Homelander's] totally betrayed, insecure, and emasculated," Starr said. "He's been opened up emotionally and burned." Heading into season 3, the only words Kripke gave Starr were "homicidal maniac." "[Homelander's] a homicidal maniac anyway, so I'm not sure what that means," the actor joked.
Herogasm The Boys cultivated a reputation for bringing some pretty extreme stuff to the screen. Season 1 went inside a club for supes where one Ant-Man-esque hero shrunk down to size and jumped between a woman's legs, while off in the corner a supe with extendable limbs partook in a hot and heavy make-out session with multiple other guys. But nothing compares to what awaits us in season 3 with Herogasm.
Writer Jessica Chou penned the script for the sixth episode, which will adapt the provocative miniseries from the Boys comics.
In Herogasm, Homelander announces to the world that earth's teams of superheroes are joining forces to take on an alien invasion in space. In actuality, they all fly to a remote island for a days-long orgy and drug-fueled party. The Boys must infiltrate this sex haven on a mission. It's unclear how exactly this will translate to the screen, but Kripke feels confident that they pulled it off.
"I've really wanted to do it, but needed to figure out our twist on it, so it's not just an hour of hardcore porn," Kripke wrote on Reddit back in 2019. "But I think we got it!! Super excited about that."

The first two promo teasers have been launched for the Paramount+ service, the upcoming rebranding, expansion and relaunching of the CBS All Access service.
Narrated by Patrick Stewart, the two thirty-second spots feature characters like Anson Mount’s Captain Pike from “Star Trek: Discovery,” Dora the Explorer, Beavis & Butthead, and people like talk show host James Corden, reality host Jeff Probst and Snooki from “Jersey Shore”.
Paramount+ will not only feature original content as well as shows from CBS like before, but is also expanding to include library content from networks such as MTV, Comedy Central, BET, Paramount Network and Nickelodeon. While Showtime will continue to operate separately, some of its content will jump to the new service.
Further details on what to expect will arrive in mid-February. CBS All Access and Showtime together have 13.5 million subscribers at present, up by 50% from the same quarter last year.

New Star Trek shows: every future series, from Strange New Worlds to Lower Decks By Samuel Roberts
In April 2019, overseer Alex Kurtzman told THR that "The idea is to always have something" Star Trek-related on TV. "Two years from now, a show will end, there will be a little breath and then another show will begin."
Star Trek: Lower Decks Release date: August 6
Getting Rick and Morty writer Mike McMahan was quite a win for this first adult animated Star Trek series, which takes place on the lower decks of the Cerritos, a less important Starfleet vessel. It's the first Star Trek animated series in decades, and features a pretty big name voice cast, including The Boys' Jack Quaid.
Star Trek Discovery season 3 Expected release date: late 2020
A third season of CBS All Access' flagship show Star Trek: Discovery finished filming a while back, and post-production has been ongoing. Season 3 has a killer hook, taking viewers 1,000 years into the future of the Star Trek timeline, which will presumably give the writers a lot of scope to tell big stories without any lore-based restrictions.
Star Trek: Picard season 2 Expected release date: 2021
Star Trek: Picard season 2 is officially happening, but where the story will go is something of a mystery after the series' eventful finale, as Picard survived (sort of) the Romulans' attack on the synthetic world of Coppelius. In season 2, expect the show to deal with the fact that (spoiler alert!) Picard now has a synthetic body, as he found a way to cheat death. We're expecting more TNG cameos in season 2, after season 1 gave fans all-too-brief glimpses of Riker and Troi. We also know Whoopi Goldberg will be reprising her role as Guinan from that series.
Section 31 (working title) Expected release date: 2021
The most intriguing spin-off in this list, and reportedly the next one in line for filming after Discovery season 3. Michelle Yeoh will reprise her memorable role as the Mirror Universe's version of Philippa Georgiou, who joined the titular mysterious Federation organization in Discovery. Section 31 operates autonomously in protection of the Federation, and is commonly known as an extreme group that works for what it perceives as the greater good. This should show a side of the Star Trek universe we haven't seen yet.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Expected release date: 2021 (or later)
Star Trek Discovery season 2's versions of Captain Pike, Spock and Number One were evidently popular enough that they're getting their own spin-off. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds features Anson Mount, Ethan Peck and Rebecca Romijn reprising their roles in what's been described as a 'classic' Star Trek series with an angle of optimism, which should sit nicely alongside the more densely serialized likes of Discovery and Picard. As a more direct prequel to the Original Series, it'll be about the crew of the Enterprise in the pre-Kirk days.
Nickelodeon Star Trek animated series Expected release date: 2022
Star Trek has so far lacked a counterpart to Star Wars' Rebels and The Clone Wars animated series, but that's set to change. A so-far untitled Star Trek CG TV series is coming to Nickelodeon in the US, and as of July 2019, it had a writers' team in place. Dan and Kevin Hageman, who worked on the excellent Netflix series Trollhunters, are the key creatives behind the show, suggesting that something of a high quality that doesn't talk down to its audience is in the works here.
Untitled live-action shows (possibly Star Trek: Starfleet Academy)
Back in January, series overseer Alex Kurtzman explained that two more live-action Star Trek series were yet to be revealed.

Amazon Studios’ forthcoming series brings to screens for the very first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth’s history.
This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and the greatest villain that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness. Beginning in a time of relative peace, the series follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elf-capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone.

CBS All Access will soon transform into Paramount+ and the latter has reportedly begun circling the long-gestating revival of classic 1990s sitcom “Frasier”.
The series will see Kelsey Grammer reprising his iconic role of Dr. Frasier Crane who has arrived in a different city. The property is owned by Paramount and produced by CBS TV Studios.
The hope is that former co-stars David Hyde Pierce, Jane Leeves and Peri Gilpin would all be involved in the revival in some capacity. Filming could begin as early as this summer should the project be greenlit.
CBS All Access is set to be rebranded as Paramount+ on March 4th.

Speaking with The Live Feed yesterday right before Paramount’s Investors Day presentation that afternoon, producers Alex Kurtzman and Julie McNamara discussed what lies beyond both ‘Prodigy’ and “Strange New Worlds” which sees Anson Mount’s Christoper Pike return and lead the original Enterprise prior to Kirk’s tenure:
“McNamara: We are in discussions about the next phase of the Trek universe beyond those five shows that Alex has built. We are invested in growing the universe of Star Trek. That said, it’s important to make sure that we are curating these properly.
We’re always incubating a number of things together and then working out what the right cadence is and what the right next show is. Those are active and constant conversations. There are multiple things in the hopper right now that represent that next phase but we don’t want to expand it too much, too fast to where anyone is ever saying, “It’s just another Trek show.” We don’t want that.
Kurtzman: Yes, we’ve thought beyond the five [shows]. Yes, we’re having conversations about what happens beyond the five. But we have to make sure we’re staying true to the way we’ve built the first five. Each show is incredibly different, offers a specific thing, they’re not all targeted at the same audiences – but interestingly enough, they tend to bring in the same audience. It’s difficult to make something for everyone. You end up making something for no one when you take that approach.
