Why Soldier Boy Is Returning In The Boys Season 5 Revealed By Eric Kripke: "Really Driven To Kill [Him]"
Soldier Boy's return in The Boys season 5 is due to his relationship with Homelander and unresolved issues with Billy Butcher. The focus will be on exploring the father-son dynamic between Homelander and Soldier Boy. Soldier Boy's pursuit of revenge against Butcher makes him a compelling antagonist for season 5.
The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke explains why Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles) is returning in a prominent role for the series' final season. Soldier Boy was absent from all of season 4 until the finale's mid-credits scene, when his biological son, Homelander, learned from President Calhoun where the supe's body was stored.
While speaking with GamesRadar, Kripke explained that it is because of Soldier Boy's relationship with Homelander (Antony Starr) and because of Soldier Boy's unresolved business with Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) that he wanted the character to return in a major way for season 5. Check out Kripke's explanation below:
