Following the show’s Emmy nomination for best drama series for its sophomore run, “The Boys” showrunner Eric Kripke spoke with EW about the upcoming third season and once again he’s teasing how insane it’s about to get.
The Amazon series went pretty far with the second season, but the new run will feature arguably the craziest sequence from the comics in an episode titled “Herogasm” which involves a ‘superheroes gone wild’ style party.
Even that however is NOT the craziest thing they get up to, rather it’s something that happens during the season premiere:
“I still think the craziest thing we’ve ever done is in Episode 1. That said, ‘Herogasm,’ the dailies are bananas. I’ve been around the block a few times. I’m a seasoned producer. Every single day on those dailies, my jaw was on the floor. I just could not believe how insane those dailies were. It’s just crazy. I can tell you that for anybody who is a fan of the comic and is expecting to see Herogasm, we are delivering it. That is happening.”
The third season is still very much in production and won’t wrap filming until September. The past two seasons have generally aired 9-10 months after the season wraps so don’t expect the new season until late Spring/early summer next year.
