The season 5 finale was really just the beginning

The Boys is over. “Over” in the “major IP owned by Prime Video” sense. Meaning... The Boys is not over. While the superhero satire aired its finale on May 20, the era of exploding bodies and bleak political commentary has much more life in it — including in-person events.

Case in point: This week, Prime Video announced The Boys: Glory Hall, a two-day immersive museum experience taking over Hollywood Legion Post 43 in Los Angeles, Calfornia next week. The event, slated for June 6 and 7, is essentially a victory lap for creator Eric Kripke’s blockbuster adaptation dressed up in Vought branding. Fans will have the chance to walk through exhibition wings packed with props, costumes, Easter eggs, and timeline exhibits. (To anyone attending: Don’t over think the last five seasons of The Boys making fun of corporate entertainment culture and just enjoy it.)

The finale itself landed with the kind of messy discourse The Boys has always set out to provoke from viewers and onlookesr alike. Showrunner Eric Kripke’s take veered away from Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson’s comic in huge ways, but preserved the comic’s core idea that Billy Butcher is incapable of stopping his own crusade.

“What I really took from the finale of the comic was that Butcher is a shark who will not stop,” Kripke told Polygon earlier in May. “It doesn't matter if Homelander's dead. It doesn't matter if his goals are fulfilled.”

The show also managed one final culture war victory lap when Elon Musk got angry about Homelander’s humiliating death scene. His one word X response: “Pathetic.” That’s how Kripke knew he achieved exactly what he wanted: “OMG this is his review of what @TheBoysTV did to Homelander, I’ll never get a better review ever. #TheBoys” he posted in response.

Despite the “final season” marketing, Prime Video is very clearly treating The Boys as a forever-franchise ecosystem. The prequel series, Vought Rising, is already written and expected in 2027 with Jensen Ackles returning as Soldier Boy and Aya Cash back as Stormfront. Even if Gen V is toast, expect even more in the future to fill the, um, halls of the next iteration of The Boys: Glory Hall.
