The satirical comedy, The Boys season 4 is all set to premier this June with no remorse. The script gets brutal as the creators and viewers are on the same wavelength for satirization of dominant superhero culture and real-world connections with the military-industrial complex.
Before the release of season 4 of The Boys, it is best to catch up on Gen V. The spinoff has some story that continues in a crossover in The Boys season 4.
The news about Chance Perdomo’s unfortunate death rattled the series producers and creators. He was an amazing human, and everyone on the set feels shocked by his unfortunate and early demise.
Besides the loss, The Boys season 4 is predicted to be the best so far, and here is what we know about the upcoming series.

What to Expect from The Boys Season 4
The character we all thought was dead, Black Noir, looks very alive in the trailer unless it’s a flashback or something new cooking.
Nathan Mitchell will also be back with a new twist. But the characters that would keep you entertained are Sister Sage and Firecracker.
There is some shift in the story which seems vague. I suggest you watch the spin-off, Gen V, before the release of The Boy season 4 because there is a confirmed crossover in the series.
The series starts with Butcher assembling his team to attack Homelander and the supes community. There would be Hughie and Butcher’s action for the path of redemption.
Ryan, Starlight, Mother’s Milk, Kimiko, and Serge weren’t a significant part of season three, but now have more depth to their characters. There will be major character development for Ryan, who is half Homelander, and half Becca.
Black Noir’s story will get a major shift. Kirpke has mentioned, the changes will make your stomach lurch and drop, then everything will be okay.
Eric Kripke hints this season is the best one yet!
The series creators do not intend to hold back on the satire. Fortunately, the viewers enjoy the social satire and can relate to it.
