Prime Video is yet to tell us when we can expect to see Season 4 of the highly popular seriesThe Boyson our screens, but while we wait, we can all count on the streamer tokeep teasing usuntil it’s finally time to dig in. Today, they asked us to consider watching a video that they promise will be the best five minutes of our day.
If you are a fan ofThe Boys, it definitely will be, since the video consists of five minutes straight of cast membersKarl Urban,Antony Starr,Jack Quaid,Laz Alonso,Jessie T. Usher,Chace Crawford,Nathan Mitchell,andJensen Acklesjust kicking back and reminiscing about their favorite scenes and what they love about their characters. During the five-minute clip, the cast also discusses favorite movies, whatThe Boysrepresents to them, andsuperhero culturein general.
The video also has a fair degree of camaraderie, since it consists of the actors interviewing each other. This means they get to talk about each other’s techniques and some fun facts end up getting revealed, like the fact that Quaid’s performance is inspired byJim Carrey(The Mask) and Alonso has watched theRockymovies “400 times.” Usher also reveals that he was cast in the series before there was even a script to read. Relatively new cast member Ackles caps it off by giving a brief nod to his one-season stint inSmallvilleand how the Superman series paved the way for superheroes on television.

Will The Writers' Strike AffectThe Boys' Season 4?
We still don’t know when Season 4 ofThe Boyswill premiere, but we do know it will be sooner rather than later since the cast and crewwrapped filming just last month. So, even though there’s a country-widewriters' strike in place, the new season ofThe Boyswas practically done when it started. For this show, the real impact will hit if and when Prime Video renews it for Season 5. Similarly, the spin-off seriesGen Vwas already done and it’sexpected to premiere this Fall, which in turn could suggest that Prime Video will push Season 4 ofThe Boysto late 2023 or early 2024 so that both series aren’t too close together.
The next season ofThe Boysis still helmed by showrunnerEric Kripke(Supernatural), and it will welcome new cast membersValorie Curry(The Tick),Susan Heyward(Orange is The New Black),Rosemarie DeWitt(Little Fires Everywhere),Rob Benedict(Lucifer) andElliot Knight(Animal Kingdom).Back in August, it was announced that recurrent cast memberCameron Crovettihad been upped to series regular, which suggests we’ll get to see more ofHomelander(Starr) and son dynamics, and whether the young boy grows up to be a successor to his father or the mega-superhero’s downfall.
