“How do you spank a superhero?” Latest trailer for the small screen take on Garth Ennis’ black-ops superhero comic, coming to Amazon Prime on July 26th. Starring Karl Urban, Karen Fukuhara, Laz Alonso, Tomer Kapon, Anthony Starr, Irish actress Dominique McElligott (‘The Guard,’ ‘Hell on Wheels’), Jesse T. Usher, Chance Crawford, Simon Pegg and Jack Quaid, the series is set in a world where superheroes embrace the darker side of their massive celebrity and fame.
THE BOYS is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It’s the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about “The Seven,” and their formidable Vought backing.
