As a die-hard fan of The Boys, I must admit that my heart skipped a beat when Eric Kripke dropped those bombshells about Soldier Boy at San Diego Comic-Con! Ever since his debut, Soldier Boy has been one of the most intriguing characters in the series, and I can’t wait to see how his story unfolds in Season 5.
In the television landscape, the highly acclaimed superhero series, often referred to as “The Boys“, wrapped up its fourth season on July 18, 2024. Initially, opinions about this season were divided, but over time, the show has been garnering more attention and is now recognized as “Certified Fresh” with outstanding ratings.
In this article on Fiction Horizon, we’ve covered most of the captivating and unexpected events from the fourth season of The Boys. However, one significant appearance – that of Soldier Boy – continues to spark curiosity among fans. The fourth season hinted at a larger part for this cherished character in the upcoming finale of The Boys, set for release in 2026.
Currently at San Diego Comic-Con, where the show was initially unveiled, Eric Kripke, the mastermind behind The Boys’ fictional world, shared some intriguing insights about the final season and hinted at what lies ahead regarding the character of Soldier Boy.
Soldier Boy has been a popular and fascinating character ever since his debut in The Boys. He had one of the strongest character arcs in the series and was a supe who worked with the Boys against Homelander, even if everything completely changed in the end, and he turned out to be as bad as the current supes. As we’ve already discussed, Kripke and Ackles had both said that Soldier Boy’s story would continue, despite the fact that he seemingly died in Season 3, and this has finally been confirmed in Season 4 of the show.
During an interview at the 2024 San Diego Comic-Con, Eric Kripke shared insights into the upcoming developments for Soldier Boy. He also explained their reasons for reintroducing him, and this was his statement:
“It struck us that we hadn’t delved deeply into the complex father-son relationship between Homelander and Soldier Boy. There’s a wealth of potential in examining how each character feels about the other, so we’re eager to explore this dynamic further. (…) Soldier Boy harbors intense hatred towards Butcher for his betrayal in season 3, making him an ideal adversary. In essence, he has switched allegiances and now stands alongside the superheroes.”

In the upcoming Season 5, it’s clear that Soldier Boy is set to play a larger part, making it intriguing to follow his storyline. Given his recent unexpected alliance with Homelander, we can anticipate some exciting developments between them. Moreover, Kripke has officially announced that Soldier Boy will be a permanent cast member in the final season.
“It’s with great pleasure that we share the news with everyone at Comic Con: Soldier Boy is returning as a series regular in season 5! Yes, you heard it right, Soldier Boy is making a comeback!”
