The Boys Season 5 Episode 4 trailer shows what’s next

The Boys Season 5 Episode 4 trailer previews a mission centered on V-One.

According to an official announcement, the team will be heading to Fort Harmony on Wednesday, likely equipped for a specific mission. A preview shows Billy Butcher and his crew getting ready, and characters emphasize the need to act quickly, confirming they have at least weeks to work with.

The video shows Fort Harmony is a crucial place where leftover V-One supplies are likely located. Characters mention finding these supplies won’t be simple, with one saying, “If there’s any V1 left in there, it ain’t gonna be easy to find.” The trailer builds tension as different groups head towards the same goal, and it becomes clear that both Homelander and Soldier Boy are after the same resource.

The advertisement emphasizes that V-One is the very first version of Compound V, possessing special qualities. It reveals Soldier Boy achieved immortality and invulnerability thanks to this specific formula. The story suggests V-One could determine who wins the overall conflict, with both sides desperately seeking it to ensure their own survival and control.

In a recent Nerdist interview, showrunner Eric Kripke revealed what drives Homelander: he wants to achieve godlike power with something called V-One. Kripke also explained that many of the show’s storylines are building toward this goal, and described the current point in the season as similar to the end of the first act in a movie.

Kripke explained that Homelander experiences a repeating vision – an angel resembling Madelyn Stillwell appearing to give him a divine purpose. He described this as a sign of Homelander’s deteriorating mental health, emphasizing that the character genuinely believes the vision is real, even though it’s a product of his fractured psyche.

Throughout the season, Homelander is clearly gaining more power and control. While some characters are being held captive, others are fighting back from the outside. The hunt for V-One is bringing different storylines together, and everyone seems to be heading towards Fort Harmony, suggesting a major confrontation is coming.
