The fifth season of The Boys will debut on Prime Video on Wednesday, 8 April 2026, and will consist of eight episodes, arriving weekly on the service.

The new season will also introduce new characters, including Daveed Diggs, known from the Snowpiercer series, and Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins, who will join the cast in guest roles. The plot of season 5 will follow Homelander’s erratic behaviour as he takes control of the world, and the Boys’ attempts to stop him.
