Watch THE BOYS Season 2 Comic-Con@Home Virtual Panel with Insane Clip and Season 3 Announcement
The full panel for the highly anticipated second season of Amazon’s The Boys Season 2. Executive producer Eric Kripke joins the panel to talk about the series and he’s joined by cast members Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capon, Karen Fukuhara, and Aya Cash, with moderator Aisha Tyler.
The cast and crew offer some insight on the craziness of Season 2, their characters, and they share some fun stories of shooting the series. The video also features an insane clip from the film involving a boat and a whale. I won’t spoil it for you but it starts at the 6:10 mark if you want to skip to the clip. Also, apparently the whale used in the scene is a practical effect!
Season 3 was also announced along with an aftershow! Seth Rogan came in to make the announcement and Kripke said:
"Amazon, in a bold and historic push to expand their ‘weirdo’ demographic, has greenlit Season 3 of The Boys! The writers and I are hard at work in the (virtual) writer’s room and we’re sad to say, the world has given us way too much material. We hope to be shooting in early 2021, but that’s up to a microscopic virus. As if that wasn’t enough, we’re bringing you a Season 2 after show, Prime Rewind: Inside The Boys. Double entendre intended. Hosted by the incomparable Aisha Tyler and guest starring the cast and crew, it’s a deep dive into how we make this insane thing. Seriously, thanks to Sony, Amazon and the fans. We love making this show so much, and we’re thrilled we get to make more."
The Boys Season 2 hits Amazon on September 4th. Now, enjoy the panel!
In Season 2, the Boys are on the run from the law, hunted by the Supes, and desperately trying to regroup and fight back against Vought. In hiding, Hughie (Jack Quaid), Mother’s Milk (Laz Alonso), Frenchie (Tomer Capon), and Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara) try to adjust to a new normal, with Butcher (Karl Urban) nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Starlight (Erin Moriarty) must navigate her place in The Seven as Homelander (Antony Starr) sets his sights on taking complete control. His power is threatened with the addition of Stormfront (Aya Cash), a social-media-savvy new Supe, who has an agenda of her own. On top of that, the Supervillain threat takes center stage and makes waves as Vought seeks to capitalize on the nation’s paranoia.
Series co-creator Eric Kripke previously refered to the second season as “crazier, stranger, more intense, more emotional. In fact, it’s too much, so the Surgeon General has insisted we air the first three episodes on September 4, then air the remaining five episodes weekly after that. We wanted to give you time to freak out, digest, discuss, come down from the high before we give you another dose.”
