Butcher Goes All Homelander in ‘The Boys’ Season 3 Trailer

Amazon has revealed a new teaser trailer for the third season of The Boys during its panel at SXSW 2022. The Boys Season 3 will release on June 3, 2022, on Prime Video. The first three episodes will drop on Friday, June 3 followed by one episode every Friday leading up to the season finale (episode 8) on 8th July.

The trailer (watch above) features the new single “Bones” by Imagine Dragons. It shows Billy Butcher getting superpowers like Homelander. Butcher can be seen making yellow lasers through his eyes. The full extent of his power is not shown in the trailer, but it certainly seems to be massive.

The trailer is full of blood as we see multiple heads bursting into small pieces of flesh and blood. We also get to see the first look at Crimson Countess played by Laurie Holden, and Soldier Boy played by Jensen Ackles. In the trailer, we see multiple scenes which tease the conflict between the Supes at Vought. Also, for the first time Homelander (Antony Starr) is milking a cow, which is quite a progress from his previous addiction.

The trailer teases Season 3 to be the most bloody and brutal season ever. In Season 3, the team of Boys is all set to break their main principle to go all out on the supes as it is time to level the playing field.

Eric Kripke, the showrunner, previewed the Herogasm episode in an interview a few months ago, saying that if the version they filmed makes it to the final edit, it will most likely make the following season of "The Boys," X-Rated. Later, confirming that he has to self-censor the episode to make it to the final cut suitable for Amazon audiences.

Season 3 of The Boys stars Karl Urban, Erin Moriarty, Dominique McElligott, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Laz Alonso, Jessie T. Usher, Chace Crawford, Claudia Doumit, Tomer Capon, Karen Fukuhara, Nathan Mitchell, Colby Minifie, and Jensen Ackles. Ackles who will play "Soldier Boy" is riding the hype of season 3. The third will also see some new faces in Sean Patrick Flanery as Gunpowder, Miles Gaston Villanueva as Supersonic, Katia Winter as Little Nina, Laurie Holden as Crimson Countess, and Nick Wechsler as Blue Hawk. 

“The Boys” is a humorous take at what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as powerful as politicians, and as revered as gods, abuse their superpowers rather than using them for good. As “The Boys” go on a heroic quest to uncover the truth about the supergroup known as "The Seven," it's powerless against the super powerful. The show preserves the bulk of the comic's boundary-pushing violence and sexuality while also delving into the dark side of superhero stardom and fame.
