The Boys Season 4 Trailer Gives Jeffrey Dean Morgan the Coolest, Sassiest Line
Amazon Prime Video has released the first official trailer for the fourth season of The Boys, giving fans a taste of the mayhem to come. The trailer features the first look at Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s mysterious new character, who has an amusing exchange with Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher.
What is Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s Role?
The action-packed footage teases a tumultuous new season, with Homelander (Antony Starr) consolidating his power over the Seven as his supporters grow increasingly extreme. Meanwhile, Starlight (Erin Moriarty) suits up once more to stand against him.
The trailer’s biggest reveal is the first glimpse of Jeffrey Dean Morgan‘s new character. In his brief scene, he asks Karl Urban‘s character,
“Your team, what’s your code name again?”
When Butcher replies “The Boys,”
Morgan fires back with the trailer’s sassiest line: “Oof. Who came up with that sh*t?”

Fans are eager to discover more details about Morgan’s role in the new season. His character’s identity and motives remain a mystery for now. As an iconic star of The Walking Dead and Supernatural, Morgan brings plenty of genre cred to the fan-favorite series.
How Will Gen V Connect?
The trailer also hints at connections to the recent Gen V spinoff series, which focuses on a college for young superheroes. Urban’s Butcher appears next to a cardboard standee of Sean Patrick Thomas’ character from the spinoff, suggesting closer ties between the two shows.
With the first season of Gen V wrapping up on a cliffhanger, the main series could reveal the fates of those student heroes. Fans are hopeful the expanding superhero universe will weave an intricate, interconnected story across multiple seasons.
While an exact release date remains unannounced, Amazon confirms The Boys season 4 will debut at some point in 2023. With filming having wrapped in September 2022, the new season should arrive in late summer or fall.
