Eric Kripke On ‘The Boys’ Finale, Giving Homelander The “Ultimate Punishment” & The Scene He’s “Been Planting For Seven Years”: “So Satisfying”
SPOILERS: This post contains details about The Boys series finale ‘Blood and Bone’
After five seasons and multiple bloody battles, The Boys wrapped up its biggest conflict with Wednesday’s highly-anticipated series finale.
But series creator and showrunner Eric Kripke noted to Deadline that Jack Quaid’s Hughie and Karl Urban’s Butcher were “the secret conflict of the show,” which made the final moments of the episode ‘Blood and Bone’, which sees the pair in a fight to the death, “so satisfying” to write.
“Yeah, that was just about the only thing we knew we were gonna do from the very, very beginning,” he explained. “It’s helpful that, outside of Robin getting run over in the first episode, it’s about as faithful to the comics as we get.”
