The third season of The Boys is coming to Prime Video in June and the streaming service has now released a trailer.

Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capon, Karen Fukuhara, Nathan Mitchell, Elisabeth Shue, Colby Minifie, and Aya Cash, the series is based on the New York Times best-selling comic by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. The story follows superheroes who abuse their power and a group of vigilantes who try to hold them accountable.
Prime Video revealed more about the return of the series in a press release.
“Prime Video revealed the first teaser from the highly anticipated third season of the Emmy-nominated drama The Boys during their panel at South by Southwest (SXSW). During the panel – moderated by Christian Slater, who voices a character in the animated anthology series The Boys Presents: Diabolical – cast members and showrunner Eric Kripke revealed details about the next installment of the fan-favorite superhero series.
The teaser showcases just some of the truly diabolical moments ahead, and offers a glimpse at all of the fan-favorite characters and fresh faces from the upcoming season of The Boys. It is also set to the song “Bones,” the first new music from Grammy-winning band Imagine Dragons’ forthcoming releaseMercury – Act 2 (KIDinaKORNER/Interscope Records).
The series will debut on Prime Video with three episodes on Friday, June 3. New episodes will be available each Friday following, leading up to the epic season finale on July 8. The eight-episode season will stream exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
The Boys is a fun and irreverent take on what happens when superheroes – who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians, and as revered as gods – abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. Intent on stopping the corrupt superheroes, The Boys, a group of vigilantes, continue their heroic quest to expose the truth about The Seven and Vought – the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages the superheroes and covers up their dirty secrets. It’s the seemingly powerless against the super powerful.”

I can’t wait for June! Just a shame that they have ONLY 8 Episodes! Will this then be the end of THE BOYS! Or why are we only getting 8 Episodes of something so different to other super Hero films!?
