The show depicts a world where superheroes are corporate backed celebrities rather than self-motivated do-gooders. When their behavior threatens the world’s safety, the squad known as “The Boys” attempts to check them.

Amazon has given an early Season 2 renewal, making the announcement at San Diego Comic-Con. Additionally, Amazon confirmed that You’re the Worst alum Aya Cash will join the Season 2 cast as Stormfront.

The show’s executive producers are Seth Rogen and Kripke, and the series stars Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capon, Karen Fukuhara, and Elisabeth Shue.

Based on the comic book by Garth Ennis (Preacher) and Darrick Robertson and created by Supernatural creator and Timeless co-creator Kripke, The Boys are Hughie (Quaid), Billy Butcher (Urban), Mother’s Milk (Alonso), Frenchie (Capon), and The Female (Fukuhara). Simon Pegg guest stars as Hughie’s father.

The Supes of The Seven are led by Homelander (Starr), who is joined by Starlight (Moriarty), Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott), A-Train (Usher), The Deep (Crawford) and Black Noir (Nathan Mitchell).

The Boys hails from Sony Pictures TV Studios, which co-produces with Amazon and Neal H. Moritz’s studio-based Original Film
