**Prepare Your Emotional Support Couch: “The Boys” Season 5 Is About to Blow Your Mind (and Possibly Your Favorite Characters to Smithereens)**

The creator of “The Boys,” Eric Kripke, has just dropped a bombshell bigger than a Vought PR scandal: The upcoming fifth (and final!) season is going to be an absolute bloodbath. That’s right, the show where exploding heads are just another Tuesday is cranking up the carnage.

Kripke, probably laughing maniacally over a cauldron of plot twists, told Total Film that β€œthere will probably be lots of death.” You heard himβ€”LOTS. And if you thought your favorite characters were safe, think again. β€œThere’s no guarantee of who’s gonna survive,” Kripke teased, with the subtlety of a sledgehammer to the face. β€œWe don’t have to keep them for another season, so you can have really shocking, big things happen all the time.”

Translation: Don’t get too attached, because your faves might not make it past the opening credits. The writers’ room is apparently like a Hunger Games arena right now, with everyone gleefully concocting the most outrageous ways to send characters to the great beyond.

But wait, there’s more! Kripke also confirmed that ending the show after five seasons was always the plan. Why? Because he’s a masochist who loves the challenge of trying not to crash the plane in the final episode. β€œSo many series finales suck,” Kripke admitted, undoubtedly while clutching a stress ball shaped like Homelander’s head.

β€œI am very grateful to Amazon for giving me the opportunity to end it on our own terms,” he continued, clearly forgetting that his terms seem to involve emotionally scarring fans worldwide. The pressure’s on to stick the landing, though. Kripke knows the stakes: β€œIf we can stick the landing, then people will be like, β€˜That’s a great show!’ But if we sβ€” the bed, people will say, β€˜Oh, it was a good show, but they sβ€” the bed.’”

Stock up on tissues, avoid becoming too emotionally invested, and maybe invest in some wine for the inevitable emotional rollercoaster that Season 5 promises to be. If you survive, that is.
