No, there isn't a new episode of The Boys today (and it won't likely return in 2025)

A lot went down in the most recent episode of The Boys. Characters died, characters were captured, and there’s a hint that a character is returning.

Of course, with the way things ended, we have a lot of questions. The bad news is we won’t get some answers for some time. That was The Boys Season 4 finale. There is not a new episode today, Thursday, July 25, and we will need to wait much longer than we’d like for the next episodes.

The Boys Season 5 is the final season of the series

In some good news, we already know that there will be a fifth season of the series. Amazon confirmed that ahead of the Season 4 premiere. In some bad news, it will be the final season of the series. At least we’ll get to see the series come to a suitable end—and I have a lot of faith in Eric Kripke being able to deliver a finale.

However, it takes time to create a season of a TV series. Kripke already mentioned that it is a two-year process, which hints that we won’t get The Boys Season 5 until 2026.

Gen V Season 2 will arrive on Prime Video first

In some good news, there is a second season of the spin-off series, Gen V. The first season included cameos from the likes of Ashley and Homelander. In fact, The Boys Season 4 brought us Cate and Sam, as they worked with Vought to take down The Boys at the very end of the season. This does suggest that we’ll get more of The Boys storyline in the college-set spin-off series.

There are questions about characters in the Gen V world, though. The series ended with Marie, Jordan, Emma, and Andre all captured. Chance Perdomo’s Andre will be honored in the season rather than the show recasting the character, which could suggest some sort of death for everyone to say goodbye. Maybe Marie, Emma, and Jordan will come across Hughie, Frenchie, and MM, though.

Gen V Season 2 is likely to arrive in 2025, helping to ease that wait for The Boys Season 5.
