The Boys Fans Would Do Anything to See This Spinoff Come True
If there's anyone who should get their own spinoff, it has to be Soldier Boy.
The Boys, Amazon’s acclaimed superhero satire, has a knack for making us root for controversial characters.
A recent Reddit discussion brought up an interesting idea for a spinoff for the beloved series. Fans are practically begging for a Soldier Boy spinoff. The thread is buzzing with excitement, and honestly, who can blame them?
Soldier Boy, portrayed by Jensen Ackles, debuted in season 3 and certainly was a hit. And it's true, there's much potential for a prequel about his early days at Vought.
Imagine a series set in the 80s, with a vibe reminiscent of the A-team. The nostalgia factor alone would be a huge draw. How cool would that be?
It would be interesting to see him being manipulated, taken advantage of, and given the wrong advice from the wrong people, leading him to become the character we know today.
This storyline could provide a deeper look into Soldier Boy's transformation and the factors that led him down his current path.
Fans are also excited about the possibility of a show about Soldier Boy leading a new group of supes, the possibilities are literally endless. All fans want is more of Jensen Ackles, who has done an incredible job bringing Soldier Boy to life.
His portrayal of the character has been so compelling that it's hard to imagine anyone else in the role.
There's also a fascinating idea about Soldier Boy trying to act like a good role model, similar to Captain America. But as we know from season 3, things don't exactly go as planned.
Some fans even joked suggesting a variety show with Soldier Boy, featuring at least one musical number in every episode because of Soldier Boy’s great rendition of Blondie's Rapture. That's something you'd definitely tune in for.
Fans are ready for more Soldier Boy. Whether it's a prequel, a variety show, or a series about him leading a new team, we're all eager to see what's next for this beloved character.
While fans are dreaming about potential spinoffs, the actual spinoff of The Boys, Gen V, finally has a release date. Mark your calendars for September 29, 2023.
