Excitement for The Boys Season 5 is electric, with a central question crackling among fans: will Soldier Boy return? Jensen Ackles‘ impactful portrayal of the character in Season 3 left a lasting impression, and his conspicuous absence in Season 4 has only sparked a firestorm of speculation about Soldier Boy‘s comeback. The Soldier Boy’s return and the potential clash with Homelander are poised to be major plot points in Season 5.
Here’s everything you need to know the possibilities of Soldier Boy’s return and his potential alliances.
Will Jensen Ackles’ Soldier Boy Return in The Boys Season 5?
There is no official confirmation about Jensen Ackles’ Solder Boy return in The Boys season 5.
In the wake of The Boys’ Season 3 finale, showrunner Eric Kripke discussed Soldier Boy’s possible return in an interaction with Entertainment Weekly. He emphasized the importance of reintroducing the character before the series concludes.
Kripke said, “The old TV adage is like, never kill anyone unless you really, really have to. Never close a door, open a window.” He added, “We’ll all have to wait and see, but I can’t imagine the series ending without Soldier Boy making another appearance.”
In Season 3, Soldier Boy’s complex history and powerful abilities added depth to the series. His interactions with Billy Butcher and Homelander created intense drama and conflict. Bringing Soldier Boy back in Season 5 could reignite these storylines and add new layers to the plot.
Will Soldier Boy Join Homelander in The Boys Season 5?
There is no official confirmation if Soldier Boy will join Homelander in The Boys.
Both Billy Butcher and Homelander have fought against him, making his allegiance unpredictable. Homelander’s recent takeover of America adds complexity to this situation. Soldier Boy might join Homelander, seeing him as a strong, emotionless leader, which aligns with Soldier Boy’s values.
However, Soldier Boy is also a proud and independent character. He might team up with Butcher to thwart Homelander’s success and dethrone him as the top supe in America. This potential alliance with Butcher could be driven by Soldier Boy’s desire to challenge Homelander’s dominance and settle old scores.
In conclusion, the potential return of Soldier Boy in Season 5 of The Boys is filled with exciting possibilities. Whether he allies with Homelander or Butcher, his presence will undoubtedly shake things up and bring new dynamics to the series. Fans can only wait and see how the story unfolds in the upcoming season.
