The stakes are high from the start. According to the official season page, “Homelander controls America through fascist terror, imprisoning dissidents in Freedom Camps. Butcher, Hughie, Annie and The Boys mount a desperate resistance against insurmountable dangers to stop his tyrannical rule.” The provided material adds another main line from Amazon MGM Studios: “It sets in motion a chain of events that will change the world and everyone in it forever. It’s the best, people. Big things are going to happen.” Karl Urban also hinted at how brutal the final season is. He said: “Every season, but especially this season, from episode 1, you’re like, ‘Oh wow.’ Like, nobody’s safe. Like, deaths, from the very beginning. Come on, last season, everything’s on.” Returning actors include Antony Starr, Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Erin Moriarty, Chace Crawford, Jessie T. Usher, Karen Fukuhara, Laz Alonso, Nathan Mitchell and Tomer Capone. The season also features Jensen Ackles, and Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins join the show for the final round.
