While details of Jensen Ackles’ cameo are being kept under tight wraps, Entertainment Weekly recently confirmed that his fan favorite character Solider Boy will be making an appearance in Gen V.
During a during a Supernatural fan convention earlier this year, Ackles let it slip that fans would probably see him in the spin-off, but EW’s exclusive on set photos of him confirmed the cameo.
Ackles also revealed that the cameo was “heavily improvised,”as he told EW, “[The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke] and I were just, like, we were spitballing ideas and workshopping literally in between takes and coming up with a whole variety of takes.”
Season 3 of The Boys ended with Solider Boy imprisoned in cryogenic stasis, but Kripke explained that he was leaving the door open for Ackles to return stating, “The old TV adage is like, never kill anyone unless you really, really have to. Never close a door, open a window.
“We’ll all have to wait and see, but I can’t imagine the series ending without Soldier Boy making another appearance.”
Gen V is set in the world of The Boys and will follow a group of super powered college students as they face increasingly violent challenges while attending Godolkin University School.
