The fifth season of The Boys will start filming without finishing the script, but for a good reason

The production of the fifth and final season of The Boys is about to begin, generating great anticipation among the fans of the series. However, the script is not yet completely finished, which has led the showrunner Eric Kripke to adopt an agile approach to writing, adapting the content as real-world events unfold.

During a recent interview with Forbes, Kripke revealed that he is preparing to write the script throughout the filming, a practice he considers usual in the creative process of the series. “It’s quite normal. You’re always rewriting these things until the day before they are filmed, and sometimes even the same day,” he explained. This dynamic method allows the creatives of The Boys to keep the series relevant and accurately and satirically reflect current situations.

One of the elements that Kripke plans to include in the script are political events in the United States, which could lead to a satirical treatment of Donald Trump’s return to the political scene. The recent presidential inauguration, which was marked by unusual moments, is a clear indicator that the series will address these aspects incisively and with its characteristic biting style.

The Boys is not only entertaining: it also speaks about our present

With this approach, The Boys not only aims to entertain but also to comment on the sociopolitical reality, which has been a hallmark in previous seasons. With production about to begin and a constantly evolving script, fans of the series can expect a very special conclusion that surely will not disappoint.
