“The Boys” may have ended with its fifth and final season this week, but there’s still more left to explore in the Vought Cinematic Universe.

Prime Video’s prequel series, “Vought Rising,” released its first trailer Friday morning, going back to 1950s New York City to show the evil origins of Vought and Jensens Ackles’ Soldier Boy. The trailer shows Soldier Boy suiting up for the first time in a retro costume as scientists at the evil psychiatric hospital Sage Grove Center, seen in “The Boys,” experiment on giving people powers. It also shows Soldier Boy teaming up with Aya Cash’s Stormfront for the first time. As “The Boys” fans know, Stormfront was one of the main villains in Season 2 and was revealed to be a Nazi before she was killed by the Boys.
