The creator and showrunner of The Boys is providing an update on the spinoff The Boys: Mexico!
If you missed it, it was revealed in November that a second spinoff, set in Mexico, was in the works, with actors Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal signing on as executive producers, and possibly taking on acting roles.
“I’m very excited about what we can do, because we can do something very interesting in Latin America,” Gael told Variety in December.
While promoting the upcoming The Boys season four, creator Eric Kripke shared an update on the status of the spinoff.

“They are still making the deal with the writer for the pilot,” Eric told EW. “He has an amazing pitch, and we all giggle and think about how fun it would be. But there are a lot of hurdles for that show before it’s a real show. He’s got to write an amazing pilot, he’s probably got to write an amazing episode 2. I think he can and he will, but we’re a while away from truly starting to drop in the Easter eggs and the setups and stuff.”
Eric notes that in order for a The Boys spinoff to work, it has to be able to stand alone on it’s own, separate from the original series.
“I really don’t want people to feel they have to watch one [show] to understand the other,” he shared. “I never want it to feel like homework or mandatory viewing. I think that’s hurt Marvel in a certain amount of ways, and I don’t want to do that. I want you to watch both shows. It certainly expands your enjoyment and experience of both shows because you understand some of the backstory of where things came from, but by no means do you have to.”
In addition to The Boys, there’s also Gen V, which is set in college, and is returning for a second season.

EXCLUSIVE: Tomer Capone has long been a household name on Israeli screens, having worked on a number of successfully exported TV shows such as Hostages, political thriller Fauda and When Heroes Fly. He won an Ophir (equivalent to an Oscar in Israel) after he was handpicked by Natalie Portman for the romantic lead in her directorial debut A Tale of Love and Darkness. But when he was cast as series regular Frenchie (or Serge) in Amazon’s hit series The Boys, he was catapulted into the mainstream. His depiction of Frenchie, a former assassin with a murky past who is mired by deep childhood trauma, and the character’s heartfelt relationship with Kimiko (played by Karen Fukuhara) has offered audiences moments of respite from the superhero satire’s often dark, violent and lewd storyline.

We just found out that “The Boys” is ending with Season 5 on Prime Video, but that doesn’t mean the universe that has been established in that show is going anywhere. If anything, it’s only just begun.
Today (June 11), just two days before The Boys season four debuts on Prime Video, showrunner Eric Kripke announced that the upcoming fifth season would be the show’s last.
Since its debut several years ago, “The Boys” has consistently been one of the biggest shows for Prime Video. Now, as the series enters its fourth season later this week, it appears now is the best time to announce when the show will be coming to an end.
It has been a high-profile 12 months for Mediawan Kids & Family thanks to subsidiary Method Animation’s involvement in the Ladybug & Cat Noir franchise, which has been enjoying box office success worldwide with a first feature film adaptation.
It’s rare for a show that appears to be running out of ideas to return two years later with the creative force that courses through the fourth season of Prime Video’s “The Boys.” After a couple of seasons of arguable wheel-spinning, seasons that seemed desperate to top the shock value of the first but didn’t do much with the complex themes or dense potential world-building in its abundance of ideas, “The Boys” oozes creative confidence with this outing and sets the table in a manner that bodes well for the future of this massive streaming hit.
While the premise of “The Boys” is fairly simple to convey–a group of people aim to take down self-obsessed celebrity superheroes–there is a lot more going on in the show, especially in more recent seasons. The show never pulls its punches when it comes to social messaging.
