The Boys are back and will drop three episodes on Premiere Day

The Boys will premiere the first three episodes of its second season Friday, September 4, 2020. New episodes will be available each Friday until the season finale on October 9. The news comes with the cast coming together for a virtual event, hosted by season two guest star Patton Oswalt. The event looks back on season one and also dropped hints for the upcoming season. “The Boys F**king Reunited” event also contained a sneak preview of the new season.

The Boys is a fun and irreverent take on what happens when superheroes abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. The heroes are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods.

It’s powerless against the super powerful as The Boys continue on a heroic quest to expose the truth about The Seven, and Vought – the multi-billion dollar conglomerate that manages these superheroes and covers up all of their dirty secrets.

Season Two of The Boys

Season two finds The Boys on the run from the law, hunted by the Supes, and desperately trying to regroup and fight back against Vought. In hiding, Hughie (Jack Quaid), Mother’s Milk (Laz Alonso), Frenchie (Tomer Capon), and Kimiko (Karen Fukuhara) try to adjust to a new normal. Butcher (Karl Urban) is nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Starlight (Erin Moriarty) must navigate her place in The Seven as Homelander (Antony Starr) sets his sights on taking complete control. His power is threatened with the addition of Stormfront (Aya Cash), a social-media-savvy new Supe, who has an agenda of her own. On top of that, the Supervillain threat takes center stage and makes waves as Vought seeks to capitalize on the nation’s paranoia.

The Supes of The Seven also includes Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott), A-Train (Jessie T. Usher), The Deep (Chace Crawford), and Black Noir (Nathan Mitchell).

Recurring stars in season two include Claudia Doumit, Goran Visnijc, Malcolm Barrett, Colby Minifie, Shantel VanSanten, Cameron Crovetti, PJ Byrne, Laila Robbins and Giancarlo Esposito returning as Vought boss Stan Edgar, among others.
