The jam-packed video, which was released during the show’s South by Southwest panel on Saturday, gives fans their first look at Supernatural vet Jensen Ackles in butt-kicking action as the original supe, Soldier Boy. (We recommend pausing at the 1:20 mark for an especially good shot of the new addition. Then make sure to watch all the way to the end for a far more shaggy version of Soldier Boy.)
Elsewhere in the teaser, which is set to Imagine Dragons’ upcoming single “Bones,” Kimiko causes some serious bodily harm to Hughie; Homelander milks a cow (so maybe it’s not just breast milk that turns him on?); A-Train gets on Homelander’s bad side; The Deep gets it on while a sea pal watches; and Frenchie and Kimiko engage in… a musical dance number. But the biggest twist is the sight of Butcher shooting laser beams out of his eyes just like Homelander! Did Butcher take Compound V to level the playing field with his arch enemy?
The Boys has been one of the most unique and gritty superhero shows to debut on streaming in recent years. Despite Butcher and the gang being the shows protagonists, the series has done an amazing job of depicting the Seven giving fans a warped mashup of Zack Snyder’s Justice League meets Deadpool.
Season 3 of The Boys arrives on the 3rd of June, only on Prime Video.
In the meantime, The Boys animated spin-off, Diabolical, is now streaming on Prime.
