Showrunner Won’t Let Threats Stop “The Boys” Or Its Spin-Off

Amazon’s series “The Boys,” shines a light on the dark side of superheroes. It has scored a solid fan base, but not everyone is happy about the action-packed horror-tinged show. Showrunner Eric Kripke has shared that he’s actually receiving threats now. Kripke recently told Consequence of Sound: “[Regarding the threats], it’s only human nature to have to react to anger or hate directed right at you. I’m not gonna lie and say, ‘No, I think it’s funny.’ It affects me. It troubles me and everything. But I think it’s part of my job to not let it affect the work. And not let it force me to second guess myself and what I’m doing here. So, no, I take a moment, feel appropriately horrified, and then process my way past it. And get back to the work of writing.” He went on to say, “And we have a very specific rule that we try to follow, which is, it was

“Supernatural” Star Set To Play Superhero On Season Three Of “The Boys”

Let’s be honest, we are all a little broken-hearted that “Supernatural” is ending. While we’ve known for a while that Jared Padalecki had found his next role on the reboot of “Walker, Texas Ranger,” fans have been wondering what is next for Jensen Ackles. Well, we’ve just learned where we can see him next. Ackles is joining the super series “The Boys” for its third season. As for the role, Ackles has been cast in the pivotal role of Soldier Boy. The actor teased the announcement on Instagram. Amazon Prime confirmed the news. In the comics, after Super Boy fought in World War II, he became the first celebrity superhero. But in reality, Super Boy is the more cowardly version of Captain America. Throughout the comics both Billy Butcher and Homelander use him for their own gains. Erik Kripke, who created “Supernatural” and serves as showrunner for “The Boys” made the following statement: When I was a kid, I had
