The fourth season of The Boys is almost here, and Hughie actor Jack Quaid says it’s his best yet. Speaking ahead of the premiere of the vicious and brutal superhero program, the actor hinted some clues about the ending, which was just extended for a fifth season.
“They always find a way to somehow find new beats, and they never repeat themselves,” Quaid said of the new season. “It has been pretty cool. This is my favorite season we have ever done. “The writers have outdone themselves.” He went on to say that there were several times that stunned him when he initially received the scripts, particularly at the end of the season.
“When I read certain things in this season, I audibly gasped,” he told the outlet. “I didn’t see a lot of the beats coming, which is difficult to do for someone who has been on the show for four seasons. The writers truly outdid themselves. The finale is spectacular. The finale is utterly ridiculous. This is ridiculous. I’m talking about The Boys, I swear.”
The Boys has already been renewed for new episodes after season 4 too, with showrunner Eric Kripke confirming that writing was underway. As for when the series will come to its conclusion, that’s still up in the air, but if Quaid has his way, it won’t be for a long time yet. “Ideally, it lasts for as long as it possibly can,” he added. “I definitely do think that I would like the show to go out on its own terms, when that happens.”
