✖ The major element of The Boys season three that the show's first trailer confirmed is one that has rocked the series at its foundation, the reveal that Karl Urban's Billy Butcher will not only take Compound V but will gain superpowers as a result.

"That's the dilemma: does Butcher become a superhero or a super villain?" Urban said to Entertainment Weekly."In order to defeat the monster, do you become the monster? And I think that's one of the cool things about this season is every character is faced with that choice.

The trailer for The Boys season three shows Butcher with heat vision just like Homelander, plus enhanced strength as a clip can be seen of him actually beating the Vought-owned hero inside a parking lot. It's certainly possible that this moment is a red herring and a dream sequence, but Butcher taking Compound V to get his ultimate revenge on Homelander seems very in line with the character and something that opens up all-new avenues for the TV series.

"There's definitely a lot of madness," series creator Eric Kripke previously explained in an interview with TV Guide Magazine's Sci-Fi & Fantasy Special Collector's Issue about the new season."It's not a secret that we're doing an episode about 'Herogasm' from the comics, which is a massive superhero orgy.

Season three of The Boys also stars Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Dominique McElligott, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capon, Karen Fukuhara, Nathan Mitchell, Colby Minifie, Claudia Doumit, and Jensen Ackles.
