The official trailer for The Boys season 3 has landed online – and it seems like we should prepare ourselves for the Supe-d up showdown of the century. Sorry, Marvel.
Released on Prime Video’s various social media channels on Monday, May 16, the new teaser gives us our first look at Jensen Ackles’ Soldier Boy and Payback – the superhero team that he leads – in all of their action and gore-filled glory in The Boys’ third season. Given the footage on show, too, The Seven and The Boys should be very wary of crossing Payback’s path in the R-rated superhero Prime Video series. Although, the trailer suggests that Homelander and Billy Butcher will be able to more than hold their own, with the duo mirroring each other more and more with each passing season.

Fans had been gearing up for a new trailer to drop, what with The Boys’ official Twitter account confirming (on Friday, May 13) that one would arrive on May 16. A new poster for The Boys season 3 accompanied the trailer’s release date announcement, following in the footsteps of a new one-sheet, which teased a superpowered makeover for Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher, before the first trailer’s arrival in mid-March.

The new trailer follows the release of two teasers – released in January and March – that hinted at the hyperviolence, sex and comedy-fuelled antics, and dark, thematic undercurrents to come in the show’s next outing. Clearly, showrunner Eric Kripke and everyone involved in the live-action adaptation are pushing the boundaries of The Boys’ TV series far beyond what most (if not all) other shows would.
The Boys season 3 will launch exclusively on Prime Video on Friday, June 3. The season’s first three episodes will debut on Amazon’s streaming service on release day, with its other five entries releasing weekly after that.
