After five seasons of death, depravity and digs at the capitalistic superhero-industrial complex, “The Boys” has dropped its series finale. But the gutsy (in more than one way) Vought Cinematic Universe is not coming to an end, with two spinoffs on the horizon at Amazon's Prime Video: “Vought Rising” and “The Boys: Mexico.” “Vought Rising” is due out in 2027 and traces the origins of the titular corporation's “supe” program, bringing back fan favorite Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles). The show, which premiered in 2019, is adapted from Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson's comic book series, which ran from 2006-2012. AP entertainment journalists Leslie Ambriz and Cristina Jaleru spoke with Ackles and his co-stars, along with showrunner Eric Kripke, about the future of the characters and the series' "unsettling" parallels to current events. #theboys #jensenackles
