New Promo Spot for THE BOYS Puts a Focus on the Badass Women in the Series and Premiere Date
While we wait for The Boys Season 2 to drop, Amazon has shared a new promo spot for the series. This promo highlights the badass and crazy woman of The Boys. These are a group of characters that you don’t want to find yourself at odds with!
It was also announced that The Boys will premiere the first three episodes of its second season on Friday, September 4th. New episodes will be available to watch each Friday until the season finale on October 9th.
Showrunner Eric Kripke recently talked about the upcoming season, saying:
“I always try to write the season finale as a pilot for the following season and make sure that whatever we’re talking about in that finale are issues we’re going to be interested in exploring next year.
“So far, we’ve been doing that and it’s been turning out well. We have this real quirk of the show that it keeps reflecting reality. Now people are scared of people coming over the border and people are feeling like we might have to go to war, and suddenly the world is so much more of an intense place than it used to be — and so is our season 2.”
Here’s the synopsis:
In a world where superheroes embrace the darker side of their massive celebrity and fame, The Boys centers on a group of vigilantes known informally as “The Boys,” who set out to take down corrupt superheroes with no more than their blue-collar grit and a willingness to fight dirty. The Boys is a fun and irreverent take on what happens when superheroes – who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods – abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It’s the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about “The Seven,” and Vought – the multi-billion dollar conglomerate that manages these superheroes.
The cast of the series includes Karl Urban as Billy Butcher, Jack Quaid as Hugh Campbell, Laz Alonso as Mother's Milk, Tomer Capon as Frenchie, Karen Fkuhara as Kimiko, Jennifer Esposito as CIA agent Susan L. Rayner, Elisabeth Shue, Erin Moriarty, Antony Starr, Dominique McElligott, Jessie T. Usher, Chace Crawford, and Nathan Mitchell.
The series was created by Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen and Supernatural creator Eric Kripke.
