'The Boys' season 5 reportedly just finished filming — here's when we think it'll debut on Prime Video
On Saturday (June 21), actress Isabella Crovetti posted a pair of photos to their Instagram story from what appeared to be the "The Boys" season 5 wrap party (h/t Bleeding Cool).
The photos have since disappeared, but the fan account The Boys Universe screencaptured the photos and shared them on their own Instagram account.

Isabella might not be a familiar name to fans of Prime Video's superhero show, but her brother Cameron Crovetti plays Ryan Butcher on the show and is set to have a big role in the show's final season. As the illegitimate, superpowered son of Homelander (Antony Starr) and Billy Butcher's wife Becca (Shantel VanSanten), he could even be the deciding factor in the war between Homelander and Butcher (Karl Urban).
Cameron wasn't the only one spotted at the wrap party, though. Posts from The Boys Universe showed some other show stars in attendance, including Jessie T. Usher (A-Train), Karen Fukuhara (Kimiko), Starr, Nathan Mitchell (Balck Noir II) and Erin Moriarty (Starlight).
Barring these photos turning out to be the greatest photoshopped/generative AI-created images ever, it sure looks like "The Boys" has finished principal photography on season 5. Reshoots may eventually be needed, but the final season seems to be ready for the edit bay.
But when will we see the last batch of episodes be released on Prime Video?

I still think that season 5 won't premiere on Prime Video until 2026. Back in May 2024, both show creator Eric Kripke and show star Karl Urban indicated that season 5 was about two years away.
Things may be currently ahead of schedule, given that a May 2026 release window would give "The Boys" a pretty long post-production window of around 11 months, but I don't think they're so far ahead that episodes will be ready in 2025.
Plus, the Prime Video release calendar is starting to fill out. "Gen V," the spin-off show of "The Boys," drops its second season in September, and it seems that "Gen V" season 2 will be set between seasons 4 and 5 of "The Boys."
That means "The Boys" can't arrive until after the October 22 "Gen V" season 2 finale.
Then, "Fallout" season 2 premieres in December, likely extending into January 2026.
To allow Prime Video's IP shows room to breathe, that signals to me "The Boys" season 5 won't come any earlier than February 2026.
That'd still be a few months ahead of our current projection of May 2026, but with filming now wrapped, I won't be shocked if we see "The Boys" season 5 premiere in early Spring 2026.

Legendary WWE referee Charles Robinson hospitalized after being bitten by a bat
Charles Robinson has spent all these years as a wrestling referee worrying about a bat being used as a weapon, but it would be the flying creature that actually got him. The legendary ex-WCW and current WWE referee revealed Wednesday morning that a bat bit him and he landed in the hospital. 'Great way to start the morning. 2:00am and got bit by a bat,' Robinson wrote in an Instagram post featuring a photo of him in a hospital bed and a video of him receiving medicine. 'That's right a bat! 4 hours later in the ER and six shots. #animalattacks #hospital.' 4 Charles Robinson in a hospital bed. @wwerobinson/Instagram 4 Robinson receiving an injection. @wwerobinson/Instagram Robinson, 61, appeared to be taking it in all in stride. The photo he posted of himself in the hospital bed featured him in a silly pose with his tongue out, while he also posted a photo of the bat with the all-caps caption: 'BAD BAT!!!' 'This is the culprit that got me. Such a cutie! #bat #animal,' Robinson wrote with the photo, which showed the bat's's fangs. 4 The bat that bit Robinson. @wwerobinson/Instagram This scare followed Robinson suffering a cracked rib while refereeing the main event of a July 'Saturday Night's Main Event' between Goldberg and then-world heavyweight champion Gunther. Goldberg accidentally — in storyline — speared Robinson during the match, and Robinson posted an X-ray showing the cracked rib. 'Thanks @goldberg95! Never fear…I am ALL MAN and I can't be kept down!' Robinson wrote. 'I will return for @wwe #smackdown next week in #SanAntonio! #wrestling #nofear Robinson made his name in WCW in the late '90s and early 2000s, especially during his run as Ric Flair's chosen referee, going by the nickname Lil' Naitch. He eventually moved to WWE — then known as WWF — after it purchased WCW, and he now works for the 'Smackdown' brand. 4 Charles Robinson holds a bat alongside Randy Orton. @wwerobinson/Instagram Wrestling content creator Chris Van Vliet reported earlier this year that Robinson became the first WWE referee to call matches across four decades.

Brent Hinds Reveals Mastodon Departure Was Not Mutual: ‘They Kicked Me Out'
Close to six months on from his exit from the band, co-founding Mastodon guitarist Brent Hinds has addressed the topic, confirming he was 'kicked out' of the group. Hinds co-founded the Atlanta heavy metal outfit in 2000 alongside bassist/singer Troy Sanders, guitarist Bill Kelliher and drummer/singer Brann Dailor, with their lineup remaining largely unchanged since 2001.

Wildfires: 'I Was Panicking' Tool and Weezer to Headline Australia's Good Things Festival Cindy Lee Announces North American Tour Dates In March, however, the band revealed that Mastodon and Hinds had 'mutually decided to part ways' after '25 monumental years together.' 'We're deeply proud of and beyond grateful for the music and history we've shared and we wish him nothing but success and happiness in his future endeavors,' a message from the group read. 'We are still very inspired and excited to show up for fans in this next chapter of Mastodon.' In June, there were hints that Hinds' departure was a rocky one, with the guitarist noting on social media that he wouldn't 'miss being in a s–t band with horrible humans.' Now, Hinds has again taken to the comments section, confirming that his exit from the band was not a voluntary one. His latest remarks were made on Instagram in reply to a video which shared a clip of Mastodon performing 'Crack the Skye' in Silver Spring, Maryland in 2012. 'My guitar sounds great, but Troy and prawn [Dailor] sound absolutely horrible,' he wrote. 'They are way out of key. Embarrassing and they kicked me out of the band for embarrassing them for being who I am. But what about who they are? They are two people that can't live or anywhere else in the world. Rverything they try to sing in the studio is manipulated by autotune because they're incapable of singing in key. 'F–k these guys,' Hinds continued. 'Only I know who they really are. They are the biggest fans of them self's [sic]. I've never seen anyone in my life look in the mirror more than Troy Sanders. He thinks he's God's gift to anything. I've never met three people that were so full of themselves. It's disgusting.' Hinds also added a slight caveat to his comments, writing a separate message accompanied by a laugh-crying emoji to note he was 'Not saying I can sing tho.' While no members of Mastodon have responded directly to Hinds' comments, Metal Injection reports that Dailor recently reshared a fans' clip of a recent live performance, captioning it with the message, 'Sounds in key to me.' Among nine Billboard 200-charting albums, Mastodon has landed three in the top 10 of the all-genre chart: 2011's The Hunter, 2014's One More 'Round the Sun and 2017's Emperor of Sand, with the latter two both hitting No. 1 on Top Rock Albums. From six Grammy nominations, the band has taken home one win: best metal performance for 'Sultan's Curse' in 2018.
