Antony Starr who plays Homelander and the leader of Seven on The Boys made a cameo in the spin-off series Gen V’s finale episode Guardian of Godolkin along with Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher making a mid-credit scene appearance to set up the events for season four of The Boys. It was reported that The Boys is going to pick up its storyline a month after Gen V.
Antony Starr as Homelander in Gen V season one had set up the whole storyline of how Starr’s character was more unhinged than he had been in the previous seasons. Homelander takes an even darker turn after Starlight exposes his toxic behavior on social media in season three and becomes the focus of the audience.

Jeffery Dean Morgan joins the cast of The Boys
One of the highly awaited faces that the audience will get to see in the trailer of season four of The Boys is Jeffery Dean Morgan who will be reuniting with his The Supernatural creator Erick Kripke. His appearance on the show was confirmed back in 2022 along with reports that he really loves the show.
Ahead of season three, Jensen Ackles who plays Soldier Boy (was missing from the first look of season four) had shared with EW,
“I know that there were some preliminary conversations of how and what and when and why that just didn’t work out with Jeff’s schedule. He’s a busy man, and everybody wants him to come on their show.”
The Supernatural actor was seen towards the end of the first look having a conversation with Billy Butcher who has a few months to live, hinting that they might team up to take down the Vought. It’s however unclear how well they know each other but it’s something that the audience will be interested to look forward to.
