‘The Boys’ Season 2 Trailer Sees the Superheroes Back in Action
And a lot more gore.
Amazon Prime Video has shared the first trailer for the second season of its hit comedy series The Boys.
The one-and-a-half-minute clip sees the return of Karl Urban as Billy Butcher, along with other familiar faces from season 1 including Jack Quaid, Laz Alonso, Antony Starr, Karen Fukuhara, Tomer Capon, Chace Crawford, Erin Moriarty, Dominique McElligott, and Jessie T. Additionally it looks like the second season will include more Terror the bulldog. The short visual also promises viewers they will be getting a lot more gore and action in the new season.
Series show runner Eric Kripke teased what fans can expect in the second season during an interview with Entertainment Weekly. “Once you end up on that season 1 cliffhanger, you know that’s going to be a big part of season 2, you know that Stillwell’s death is going to be a big part of season 2, and superheroes being in the military,” Kripke shared. “I always try to write the season finale as a pilot for the following season and make sure that whatever we’re talking about in that finale are issues we’re going to be interested in exploring next year.”
“So far, we’ve been doing that and it’s been turning out well,” Kripke continued. “We have this real quirk of the show that it keeps reflecting reality. Now people are scared of people coming over the border and people are feeling like we might have to go to war, and suddenly the world is so much more of an intense place than it used to be — and so is our season 2.”
Amazon originally shared the trailer via YouTube, but quickly pulled it. You can watch the full thing below.
