Eric Kripke, the creator and showrunner of The Boys, has shared news about The Boys: Mexico. This spinoff series was first announced in 2023, and development is now moving forward. Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer, known for his work on DC’s Blue Beetle, delivered the script to Amazon last week, and Kripke recently discussed it with them, calling it “downright hilarious.” Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal have joined the project as executive producers. Dunnet-Alcocer’s cultural insights are expected to bring authenticity to the Mexico City-based story. In a recent interview with EW, Kripke confirmed that Amazon approved the complete script for the first season with only minor revisions requested. Since the series will take place after Season 5 of The Boys, the script approval indicates the project is moving forward. However, the need for script adjustments, casting, and production suggests a premiere is unlikely before 2028. Kripke has not revealed specific plot details, only confirming that the series will be set in Mexico and follow the events of the fifth and final season of The Boys.
The Boys Universe Expands with Vought Rising and Gen V in Development
The Boys: Mexico is not the only confirmed spinoff. Vought Rising, a prequel set before the events of The Boys and Gen V (the first franchise spinoff, taking place between seasons three and four), is also in development. Vought Rising will take place in the 1950s and feature Soldier Boy (played by Jensen Ackles) and Stormfront (Aya Cash). The fifth and final season of The Boys recently premiered on Prime Video with two episodes that have been well-received.
