If the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:teaser trailer is anything to go by, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Boys season 4 is going to be bigger and bloodier than ever. How🅷ever, one character's fate seems ⛄to have slipped some fans' minds – and they're not happy. 

T♉he Boys official account shared a recap of everything we know about the new season so far, and one of these plot points is the fact that Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) onl💝y has six months to live.

Let's refresh your memory: at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:end of season 3, we learned that V24 (or Temp V), a Vought-manufactured drug that temporarily gives the user superpowers, causes deadly tumors after multiple doses. Having taken six doses of the drug, Butcher is given 12-18 months to live in the season 3 finale. The passing of time betw꧂een seasons 3 and 4, then, means that window has significantly shortened.    

You'd be forgiven for forgetting Butcher's fate, though – we last saw him in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Gen V finale post-credits scene (looking pretty healthy) wheཧn he discovꦆers the Woods, the secret laboratory at Godolkin University where Dean Shetty had been cooking up a lethal, contagious virus that targets Supes. 

The Boys season 4 will be released sometime in 2024. While we wait, check out our guide to the other 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best shows on Amazon Prime Video to fill out your watch list.
