Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal developing The Boys: Mexico spin-off for Prime Video

In an unexpected twist for a franchise that is very closely associated with its America-themed fascist superhero antagonist, Prime Video’s The Boys is apparently expanding beyond the United States for a whole new spin-off series called The Boys: Mexico. Plot details haven’t been revealed yet, but Variety says the show will be in Spanish, that it will be shot in Mexico (and take place in Mexico City), and that Blue Beetle writer Garth Dunnet-Alcocer is attached to write it.

Plus, both Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal are attached to executive produce, and Deadline says they might even act appear in the series as well—though neither of them would have “major roles,” according to unnamed sources. No other casting details have been announced.

Assuming the show gets picked up, it will be the third entry in Prime Video’s The Boys franchise following the main series and the recent Gen V spin-off (the fourth if you also count semi-canonical animated series The Boys Presents: Diabolical). And, while it seems like Amazon might be in danger of spreading the series too thin, The Boys does seem like a show that would lend itself to Walking Dead-style spin-offs that are just the same basic show set in a different kind of place. Who is the Mexican version of Homelander? Is there a Mexican version of Homelander? Is there a Mexican equivalent of The Boys? It seems like there would have to be, if the title they’re going with is The Boys: Mexico.

Maybe this will all tie in with the upcoming fourth season of The Boys, which is supposed to air at some point in 2024 (and will also probably have to tie in with Gen V in some way).
