The Boys Season 5 Cast: Every New And Returning Actor Confirmed So Far

The Boys kicks off its endgame with a two-part Season 5 premiere on April 8. 

In the final season, Homelander is at the peak of his powers after gaining control of the U.S. government. Meanwhile, Butcher returns more vengeful and unhinged than ever.

However, they are far from the only players who will determine the outcome of the final battle. From Vought employees to newcomers, anyone could change the game.

Here are all the key cast members confirmed for Season 5. 

The Main Cast 

Antony Starr as Homelander

The maniacal leader of The Seven now controls the U.S. government. With no one left to keep him in check, Homelander is more dangerous than ever and poses a threat to not only the Boys but the entire world.

Karl Urban as Billy Butcher

The de facto leader of the Boys returns despite losing his team’s trust. The last time fans saw Butcher, he had gained new powers but was slowly d*ing from them. With a dangerous virus at his disposal, he will try to eradicate Supes before his time runs out. 

Jensen Ackles as Soldier Boy

Following his introduction in season 3, Ackles returns as a series regular in the final season. As the original leader of The Seven and Homelander’s biological father, he becomes the ultimate wildcard in the final battle.

Jack Quaid as Hughie Campbell

The group’s moral and emotional compass, Hughie, will undoubtedly play a major role in the final battle. Given his newfound confidence, he may be the only person capable of bringing Butcher back from the dark side.
