The upcoming season continues from the dramatic events of Season 4, which ended in July 2024 with a political shift in the US.

The newly elected president imposed martial law, effectively giving Homelander control.

In the aftermath, most members of the vigilante group known as The Boys were captured, except for Billy Butcher, who escaped and now has tentacle-like powers.
