Some familiar faces and a major plotline from Gen V stop by The Boys season 4.
Showrunner Eric Kripke talks about balancing it all.
This article contains spoilers forThe Boysseason 4 episode 5.
He spoke withDen of Geekabout his excitement and carefully calculated intentions surroundingThe Boysexpanded world in an exclusive interview.
It was really fun [seeing the shows intersect], Kripke says.
We attempt to balance it really, really carefully.
I really dont want the show to turn into homework.
Its supposed to be fun, Kripke says.
Its very intentionally designed so that if you watchThe Boysand youve never watchedGen V, itll still make sense.
Watching both will give you a deeper experience.
Thats why I would prefer you to watch both, obviously, but you dont have to.
They respect their audiences time and also honor the value of all of these shows as standalone series.
