The Boys showrunner Erik Kripke apparently has "an endgame in sight" for the Amazon Prime Video original.

Season two of this comic book adaptation arrives next month, and will see the titular band of superhero hunters on the run from the law while fighting back against Vought.

Ahead of the new episodes, executive producer Seth Rogen sat down with GamesRadar for a chat.

"Erik does have an ending in mind that he likes and is working towards," he revealed.

"But I do also know how fluid these things are. I know some of my favourite shows were not plotted out incredibly specifically, but to my knowledge, he has an endgame in sight and an ideal number of seasons in his head."

Rogen went on to reiterate: "But again, these things change, and I've literally been in the writers' room where someone says something and you go, 'Oh no, maybe we need two more seasons to do this idea we all like!'

"He's been very deliberate in the plotting out of the show, and we talk so much about a crowd-pleasing experience with the show and making our TV equivalent of a fun, edgy blockbuster.

"So, we've been very aware of making sure people are super happy with what's happening and not disappointed with how it all goes down."

With its batsh*t crazy characters and plotlines, there's just no way any of us will leave this show disappointed, no matter how many seasons they do.

The Boys season one is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video, with season two launching on September 4.
