Black Noir will be back…but different

Other things we know about season 4:

  • Black Noir will return as a whole new character. Though he technically was killed in Season 3, showrunning Eric Kripke confirmed he will be back in the new season and played by the same actor, Nathan Mitchell. Apparently death has changed him though so expect some major shake ups.
  • Carnage will be even crazier. Known for it’s gory, bloody scenes, season 4 is going to change things around a bit – though weather it will be more or less carnage has not been verified. VFX supervision Stephan Fleet tweeted that he can’t unsee what he saw during Season 4’s production which makes us expect something nasty in the works.
  • Butcher (Karl Urban) is going to have to fix things in the last 12-18 months of his life. The effects of Temp V took their tole and at the end of Season 3, Butcher’s doctor gave him the grim prognosis. Season 4 will see him trying to make amends including mending things with Homelander’s son, Ryan, after blowing up at him.
  • Starlight (Erin Moriarty) is going to fight her own way….by working with the Boys instead of trying to take them down. She threw away her uniform and walked away from the Seven at the end of Season 3 and we will see her figuring things out as she works towards real justice instead of the Seven’s version of it.
  • Ryan gets caught between Homelander and Butcher. After Butcher’s outburst at the boy, Ryan has been bonding more with his biological father Homelander which might tip the balance of power in favor of the Seven if Butcher cannot make amends with the boy.
  • Gen V will tie into Season 4. The Boys: Gen V spinoff will have major links that will affect Season 4. The series is set at a superhero college training new Supes and putting them to the test.

No release date has been announced.
