Amazon teases 'The Boys' Season 2

 

Amazon is bringing The Boys back, and it's looking as bloody as ever. The second season will be hitting Amazon Prime Video in 2020, but the company won't say when. The trailer shows us all of the major players at the end of the last season are back. And the show will not hold back on the gore. We don't expect the show to hold back on the bloodshed nor on the difficult subjects it tackled during the first season.
