The world of The Boys is getting bigger even as the main show prepares to say goodbye. Eric Kripke, the creator of the hit series, just gave a big update on the next spin-off, The Boys: Mexico. The new show will take the action to Mexico City and bring a fresh, funny vibe to the superhero universe.
Kripke shared that the pilot script for The Boys: Mexico is complete. He delivered the script to Amazon, and the early feedback has been very good. The team is now working on small changes based on notes from the streaming service. The creator feels hopeful that the project will move forward to the next stage.
“We delivered a script to Amazon. We had a notes call just this week. They seemed to love it. He’s gonna turn around the next notes, but obviously, you never, ever know. But at least at the moment, they’re making the right noises, so I’m hopeful.”

The Mexico Spin-Off Will Bring a New Tone to The Boys Universe
Kripke confirmed that The Boys: Mexico will take place after the events of The Boys Season 5. The story is set in Mexico City and will feature a very different feel compared to the original series. The creator says the script from writer Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer is very funny.
Fans can expect the same universe but with a completely different tone. Kripke mentioned that the show will not feel exactly like the main series. The project aims to offer a unique style while keeping the smart and bold spirit that The Boys is known for.
Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal Serve as Executive Producers
Two famous Mexican actors, Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal, are working as executive producers on the project. They are long-time friends and collaborators. While they are not taking leading roles, both are closely involved in the development of the show. There is a chance they might appear on screen in smaller roles.
The involvement of Luna and Bernal brings a strong connection to Mexican cinema. Their production skills are expected to give the spin-off an authentic local flavor. The show will be shot in Mexico, and the team is working on budgets and casting plans.
