The Boys creator Eric Kripke says there won't be any epic Avengers: Endgame-style battles in the fifth and final season because they just don't have the budget.
"It's just a totally transformed world. It’s Homelander’s world and, unfortunately, we’re all living in it," Kripke says in the latest issue of SFX. "Starlight is mounting a desperate resistance, but The Boys are scattered. Frenchie, Mother’s Milk, and Hughie have been captured. We talked a lot about the French Resistance and prison camp breaks. We were really working our way through that kind of season. I mean, there are not full battle scenes because we still don’t have Game of Thrones' budget, but there are a lot of very direct confrontations; a lot of the people that you want to see smashing into each other smash into each other. I hope it’s cathartic and emotionally satisfying, but I’m a tiny bit terrified."
