‘the Boys’ Nathan Mitchell Says Season 5 Has Things That Aren’t on ‘Your Bingo Card’

It’s far from uncommon to hear actors build up the upcoming season of a show by tossing out a bold teaser or two. While the added hype will sometimes prove to be legitimate and other times falls short, if there’s any show worth jumping on the hype train with, it’s probably The Boys.

Very few shows have avoided pulling punches the way the Amazon Prime Video series does, and that's one of the reasons it's become so beloved since premiering in 2019.

However, heading into Season 5, it's an entirely different ballgame for the show that flips the script on the portrayal of superheroes. The Boys creator Eric Kripke and company decided to end things on their terms and have made Season 5 the last of the series.

Between the insane plot twists and outrageous personalities in the show, the first four seasons left fans in disbelief on far too many occasions to count. And from the sound of it, Season 5 could take all of it to an entirely new level.

During an interview with Deadline, Nathan Mitchell, who plays Black Noir in the show, had a one-liner that teased just how off-the-wall things will be.

“...There are some things that are coming in Season 5 that you’re not going to have in your bingo card," Mitchell said.

A similar sentiment was echoed by virtually the entire rest of the cast at some point during the nearly 20-minute interview, just not in quite as cryptic a fashion.

Along with a few storylines that the show is well-positioned to tie up, other significant situations are expected to unfold that are entirely up in the air. Among those topics where it's anyone's guess how they'll play out is the back-and-forth between Homelander (Antony Starr) and Billy Butcher (Karl Urban), which has been ongoing since Season 1.
