A new spin-off series of ‘The Boys’ is announced at San Diego Comic-Con.
This new show will be called ‘Vought Rising,’ and it’s a prequel that tells the story of Vought. The show will take place in the 1950s and will focus on the early days of Soldier Boy and Stormfront. Jensen Ackles and Aya Cash will return to play these roles.
The Boys’ official account recently tweeted about the new series, saying:
“Introducing the next deranged entry into the world of ‘The Boys’: ‘Vought Rising,’ starring Jensen Ackles and Aya Cash. Set in the 1950s, exploring the early exploits of Soldier Boy and a supe you know as Stormfront. Only advice for now is to keep your hands off the f*cking shield.”
