Spoilers ahead for season 3, episode 4 of The boys“Glorious Five Year Plan”.
The latest episode of Amazon Prime Video The boys finally brought Jensen Ackles’ Soldier Boy into the present, after fans only saw him through the flashbacks that took place during WWII. It was also certainly an episode to remember, as the man out of time usually in costume was naked when he debuted in the present day. Following the episode’s premiere, showrunner Eric Kripke shared some thoughts on the character’s entry and Ackles’ feelings about it.
Fans know this The boys She has no problem getting obscene whenever she wants, and nudity certainly isn’t uncommon on the show. As the man behind this comic book adaptation for the small screen, Eric Kripke is more than aware of this fact. He also mentioned this fact when he discussed Soldier Boy’s memorable arrival in the present with television line and giving his reasoning for the simple approach:
Every character in this series has at one time or another … faked nudity. It is unrealistic for you to get dressed while in some kind of gas filled room. [while] unconscious.
In the episode, the main group was trying to track down the hero of the story and eventually met the completely naked super, whose mind also seemed very fragmented. However, I don’t think many viewers paid much attention to the character’s thoughts, as they were most likely focused on Jensen Ackles’ naked butt.
It was certainly a change of pace for the star herself, as she usually kept most of her clothes during her 15 years as a star. SupernaturalIt’s Principal Winchester. (This was mainly due to the limitations of network television.) One could imagine that this was a different experience for the actor, but one that he was willing to embrace, according to Eric Kripke:
He would never, ever, ever have an actor show nakedness or do something he felt uncomfortable with, period. Jensen and I have been joking lately that there was a scene he didn’t want to do, and that’s actually not true. The truth is, I checked it to make sure everything was okay. I would never put an actor in an awkward situation. So I called him and said, “That’s the idea, but 1000%, if you don’t want to do it, don’t do it,” and he said, “No, I think he’s honest with the character.” and I think he’s true to the tone of his world of him, and everyone has. I’m inside.’
When it was announced that Jensen Ackles would be joining The boys, some probably assumed his character would have some wild scenes, and this one didn’t disappoint. One would think that the working relationship of Ackles and Eric Kripke (born of Supernatural) made it easier for him to get into the role that Kripke helped him get. It’s nice to hear that the two were able to joke around and keep the mood light as they prepared for the big time.
Of course, now that Soldier Boy is in the present, he’s already making a good impression in addition to his nude debut. He had a meeting with Kimiko, who didn’t recover after the fight and, as the showrunner teased in the same interview, will bring a “very new and important twist” that will be explored as the season progresses. . The presence of a superhero with a likely corrupted mind is sure to keep things interesting and, according to Kripke, “he will really be a bomb in the social order of everything.”
I would also like to keep an eye out for other wild footage as some scenes from Season 3 may not be suitable for some viewers. There’s the giant penis accessory, which may or may not haunt your nightmares, for example. And one of the grosser scenes was even about The Deep eating her best friend Timothy the octopus, and the moment actually earned the show a PETA award. So, if you’re still stuck on Soldier Boy nudity, know that there are even more wild moments to come.
The boys releases new episodes on Thursdays, so make sure you have an Amazon Prime Video subscription to watch them.
