“The Boys,” Amazon Prime Video’s epic superhero satire series, will end with its fifth season.

The show’s creator and showrunner, Eric Kripke, announced “the end has begun” while promoting the series’ fourth season, now streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

“Season 4 Premiere Week is a good time to announce: Season 5 will be the Final Season! Always my plan, I just had to be cagey till I got the final OK from Vought,” Kripke wrote on the social platform X, referencing the powerful company that manages the celebrity-like superheroes on the show. “Thrilled to bring the story to a gory, epic, moist climax.”

To accompany the announcement, Kripke shared an image of what appears to be a redacted script for the final episode of the fourth season, with a profane message at the bottom referencing the final season.

The series, which is based on a comic of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, follows a team of vigilantes who take on a group of superheroes who are treated like A-listers and abuse their power.

“The Boys” has been one of Prime Video’s most popular original series, spawning two spinoffs, “Gen V” and “Diabolical.” Both take place in the same universe as “The Boys,” with “Gen V” focusing on college-aged heroes mastering their powers, and “Diabolical” telling a series of short stories through animated episodes.

Perry, Franklin to create faith-based films: Tyler Perry has signed a new partnership with producer, author and motivational speaker DeVon Franklin to create faith-based films for Netflix. Perry recently signed a deal with Asylum Entertainment to create unscripted programming, which could include documentaries and reality shows.

The first film for Perry and Franklin will be called “R&B,” a modern-day retelling of the biblical story of Ruth and Boaz. The film’s official synopsis describes this as “one of the most iconic love stories in the Bible” and “tells the story of a young woman who escapes the Atlanta music scene to care for an elderly widowed woman and in the process finds the love of her life and gains the mother she never had.”

“I’m so excited to be working with DeVon on this and future projects,” Perry said in a news release. “I think in this polarizing world, and at a time where the world seems to be growing colder everyday, we both share the common goal of wanting to spread some good.”

Bravo shakes up ‘RHOA’ cast: After a lengthy delay and weak ratings for Season 15, Bravo has overhauled the cast of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” with four cast members out and five new ones in for Season 16.

This is the most change the show has experienced in a single season since it debuted 16 years ago.

Marlo Hampton, Shereé Whitfield (for a third time) and Sanya Richards-Ross were cut. Kandi Burruss voluntarily departed in February after 14 seasons.

Two of the five arrivals are alums: Porsha Williams, who was on the show from Seasons 5 to 13, and Shamea Morton, who has appeared for several years as either a guest or friend, each defined by occasional appearances on the show. This will be Morton’s first season with a full peach, which is the Bravo lingo for being a full-time cast member who is expected to appear in every episode and have specific storylines.

The other new cast members are fresh faces: Brittany Eady, Kelli Ferrell and Angela Oakley. Eady owns an apparel company, Ferrell runs Nana’s Chicken-n-Waffles in McDonough, Georgia, and Oakley is a real estate agent.

Only two cast members remain from Season 15: Kenya Moore and Drew Sidora. Moore is the longest-running cast member now, going back to Season 5. Sidora joined the cast in Season 13.

The 16th season started production in May but won’t debut on Bravo until 2025.
