Amazon Prime Video released the third season of their hit comic book series The Boys and it was arguably the best season of the series. Season 3 introduces fans to some new characters from an old superhero team known as Payback, and the leader of the team, Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles), is out to get revenge after they attempted to kill him. Soldier Boy returns after The Boys wake him up from a Russian camp, and he has a surprising new ability that allows him to de-power superheroes. During The Boys Season 3 we see the deaths of a bunch of heroes that we won’t spoil in this article, but the official Twitter account released an in memoriam for the heroes we lost this past year. You can check it out below.

“From our first conversation with Eric Kripke and the creative team about Season 3 ofย The Boys, we knew the show was continuing to get even bolder-an impressive feat considering the wild success of the Emmy-nominated second season,” Vernon Sanders, head of global television, Amazon Studios, shared in a statement. “The Boysย continues to push boundaries in storytelling while also being relentlessly entertaining and threading the needle on social satire that feels all too real. This stylized world of the series has incredible global reach and the viewership for opening weekend is proof of that. We are immensely proud of the cast and crew that has spawned a franchise for Prime Video, but andย we look forward to bringing more of The Boys to our customers.”
“Speaking for the cast and crew, we’re so grateful to Sony, Amazon, and most of all the fans for embracing the show and allowing us to make more,”ย The Boysย showrunner, added. “We’re thrilled to continue Butcher and the Boys’ fight against Homelander and the Seven, as well as comment on the insane world we’re living in. Also, this is the first time in history that exploding genitalia has led to further success.”
Jeff Frost, President, Sony Pictures Television and Jason Clodfelter, co-President, Sony Pictures Television said in a statements, “The Boysย producers and cast have proven year after year that there is no bar they can’t jump over. We are incredibly proud of this brilliant and subversive genre-bending series. Our relationship with Prime Video is much more than a partnership, it’s more like extended family.
