With a little over a month until the fourth season of The Boys premieres, Prime Video has released a new trailer. The trailer shows a chaotic world filled with political tension and violence.
The season 4 trailer opens with Billy Butcher showing his vulnerable side, expressing regret for his choices throughout his life, hoping to rectify all his wrongdoings by saving the world. We also see Homelander, who provides a voiceover in the trailer, expressing to The Seven that they are pivoting from being “beloved celebrities” and rebranding themselves as gods.

We also briefly see Sam Riordan and Cate Dunlap, two characters originally appearing in The Boys spinoff show Gen V. In addition, Jeffrey Dean Morgan makes another appearance, talking to Butcher and asking for his help in taking down supes, and Butcher discovers a virus that can kill supes.
As previously depicted in the marketing for the upcoming season, The Boys’ fourth season will occur during an election year, with political tension leading to violent encounters. Beyond the usual gore and violence we have come to expect from Prime Video’s hit TV series, we also see political tension from the upcoming election resulting in violence.
In our review of The Boys’ third season, IGN wrote, “The Boys’ third Season achieves a balance between impactful storytelling and extreme violence that cements itself as one of the best shows on streaming, no matter the year or genre.”
The Boys’ season 4 premieres on June 14. For more, check out our ending explanations for season 3 and our breakdown of the season 1 finale for Gen V and how it will likely tie into The Boys’ upcoming season.
