SPOILERS FOR THE BOYS!!!
The best show on television's fourth season ended last week, and in 2026, we get the fifth, and final season of Amazon Prime's "The Boys".
To quickly recap the final few moments of season four, Homelander is essentially in control of the United States, most of the boys are captured, Ryan killed Mallory, Butcher has chosen the evil path, A-Train is somewhere out in the universe, Stralight got her powers back, Ashley took the V, and Soldier Boy is on his way back.
The stage is now set for an epic conclusion to this series, and with that in mind, here is what I want to see happen in the final season.
As much as it will hurt, Billy Butcher, I believe will end up killing almost everyone we have gotten to know over the first four seasons. I think he kills all the boys besides Hughie, Starlight, and Kimiko, and will kill characters in the Seven like the Deep & Black Noir.
All this will lead to a final battle between Billy, Ryan, Homelander, and Soldier Boy.
I hope that in that final battle, Butcher pays for his sins and is forced to sacrifice himself, likely protecting his wife's son. After being saved by Butcher, Ryan turns to the good side instead of following in the footsteps of his father. I think Soldier Boy is put on ice again, and with Homelander, I do not want to see him die, Homelander should have a much more cruel faith than death.
I would love it if Homelander is stripped of his powers somehow, and instead of dying, he is forced to live out his remaining days in prison as a normal human instead of the most powerful man on earth.
Lastly, I hope Annie & Hughie get their happily ever after, and they begin to find the good heroes across the earth to form a Justice League-type squad that is out there to protect civilization from super-powered threats.
God, I cannot believe I must wait for 2026 for peak to return, but I promise I will be seated at my TV at midnight on release night.
