After the Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles) debacle left Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott) "dead," a whole lot of other people really dead, and a crapload of destruction, Vought++ pulled the OG supe's content to avoid the painfully bad public relations backlash Well, it appears Vought's money people have gotten into Homelander's ear because films like Red[...]

As impressive as Jensen Ackles' performance as Soldier Boy was during the third season of Amazon & showrunner Eric Kripke's (and SPN creator) The Boys, fans of the actor know that it wasn't the first time Ackles has played around in the superhero sandbox He voiced Jason Todd aka Red Hood in 2010's Batman: Under[...]

But after the third season of Amazon & showrunner Eric Kripke's (and SPN creator) The Boys, it would be safe to place his turn as Soldier Boy as a very strong & respectable second And it's those two roles that Ackles put under the microscope during an interview with Variety While Dean and Soldier Boy[...]

Now granted, that could be a tall order since we still have two episodes to go on the third season which means we don't know what the fate of Jensen Ackles' Soldier Boy might end up being But when it comes to Ackles's SPN co-stars Jeffrey Dean Morgan (The Walking Dead) and Jared Padalecki (Walker),[...]

If you need a refresher… Vought used Memorial Day as an excuse to release a 1984 public service announcement from Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles) urging kids to stay away from drugs as a way of "honoring" their original supe (and also boost his merchandising sales) Well, it didn't take long before Frenchie (Tomer Capon) would[...]

It's not that we weren't expecting Amazon and Showrunner & EP Eric Kripke to drop some new stuff regarding Jensen Ackles' Soldier Boy ahead of this Friday's premiere of The Boys Season 3 We just didn't expect Vought International to hijack the proceedings with their own bit of nostalgic propaganda In this case, a look[...]

To dump some more gasoline on the fires, Kripke shared a behind-the-scenes look at Jensen Ackles' Soldier Boy clearly ready for action… it's just not the kind of "action" you might be thinking of… Image: Screencap Here's a look at Ackles' Soldier Boy in all his glory, with Amazon's The Boys Season 3 premiering on June 3rd: IN[...]

It feels like it was only November 2020 when The Boys star Jensen Ackles (Supernatural) first introduced us to the bearded look that he was going for to play Vought's "Homelander Before There Was Homelander" Soldier Boy Well, that's because it was November 2020 when we first saw it, and we also noted that it[...]

But according to Vought history, an executive order was signed in 1945 to make April 28th Soldier Boy Day in honor of the heroic wartime efforts by Jensen Ackles' on-screen counterpart But it was Soldier Boy's selflessness that resulted in his asking that the holiday's name be changed to honor all heroes Now while we[...]

Did anyone forget "Herogasm"?

But it was his second one that got our eyebrows arching, where Kripke reveals he's seen Ackles' dailies as Soldier Boy and that they are "so f***ing weird & funny," and even teased "a scene I've always wanted to do" before driving home the point that The Boys and Supernatural fans are going to like[...]

It's also the same date that he's wrapping filming the third season of Amazon and showrunner Eric Kripke's The Boys (where he's set to play OG supe Soldier Boy, in case you forgot) If you think that's a little creepy then just imagine how Ackles feels-[...]

They also didn't do too shabby for each other, either- with Padalecki on the popular series Walker and Ackles joining the third season of Amazon and SPN creator Eric Kripke's The Boys as Vought's original supe, Soldier Boy Then last month came and there was a bit of a dust-up over some surprising news when[...]
