The Boys is dead. Long live Vought Rising.
The Boys is dead. Long live Vought Rising.
《黑袍纠察队》已终结，沃特国际崛起。
Well, that was fast. The Boys series finale only wrapped two days ago, but Prime Video clearly wants to build on that momentum by releasing the first teaser for the prequel series, Vought Rising. With spinoff series Gen V canceled after two seasons, Vought Rising and a planned The Boys: Mexico must carry the franchise banner. (Spoilers for The Boys series finale below.)
这速度可真够快的。《黑袍纠察队》系列大结局才刚刚播完两天，Prime Video 显然想趁热打铁，发布了前传剧集《沃特崛起》（Vought Rising）的首支预告片。随着衍生剧《V世代》在两季后被砍，《沃特崛起》以及计划中的《黑袍纠察队：墨西哥》必须扛起该系列的大旗。（以下内容包含《黑袍纠察队》大结局剧透。）
The Boys‘ fifth season set up the final confrontation between Antony Starr’s Homelander and Karl Urban’s Butcher—the former seeking the original V compound that would make him immortal, the latter seeking to commit genocide with a Supe-specific virus. Homelander succeeded in his quest, but he wasn’t quite an invulnerable god. There were heavy losses on both sides of the conflict (RIP Frenchie, in particular), and Homelander was ultimately defeated and killed by a vengeful Butcher. (Starr still hasn’t gotten his much-deserved Emmy; his portrayal was simply magnificent.)
《黑袍纠察队》第五季铺垫了安东尼·斯塔尔饰演的“祖国人”与卡尔·厄本饰演的“布彻尔”之间的终极对决——前者寻找能让他长生不老的原始 V 药剂，后者则试图利用针对超人类的病毒实施种族灭绝。祖国人虽然达成了目标，但他并非真正不可战胜的神。冲突双方都损失惨重（尤其是法兰奇的离去），最终祖国人被复仇心切的布彻尔击败并杀死。（斯塔尔依然没能拿到他应得的艾美奖；他的表演简直太精彩了。）
Per the official logline: “Set in the 1950s, the prequel series explores the twisted origins of Vought International. The teaser offers a diabolical first look at the world and story that will define this next evolution of the franchise.”
根据官方剧情简介：“这部前传剧集设定在 20 世纪 50 年代，探索了沃特国际扭曲的起源。预告片让我们首次窥见了定义该系列下一阶段演变的世界观与故事。”
According to series creator Eric Kripke, the Supes in this prequel start out in the military before moving to a flashier private sector—what will ultimately become Vought International. Given that and the time period, the Supes’ outfit designs were inspired by USO performers’.
据剧集主创埃里克·克莱普克透露，这部前传中的超人类最初是在军队服役，随后才转向更光鲜的私营部门——也就是最终演变成的“沃特国际”。考虑到这一点以及时代背景，超人类的服装设计灵感来源于美国劳军联合组织（USO）的表演者。
Jensen Ackles reprises his role as Ben/Soldier Boy—back when he still had patriotic ideals—alongside Aya Cash, who was memorable as the secret Nazi Supe, Stormfront (aka Clara Vought), in The Boys. Mason Dye plays Robbie/Bombsight (also from S5), Will Hochman plays Torpedo, Elizabeth Posey plays Private Angel, and Ethan Slater reprises his Gen V role as Thomas Godolkin. (Kripke has said other characters from the franchise series could make an appearance as well.)
詹森·阿克斯将回归饰演本/士兵男孩——回到他仍怀揣爱国理想的时期；与他搭档的是阿雅·卡什，她曾在《黑袍纠察队》中饰演令人印象深刻的纳粹超人类“风暴前线”（又名克拉拉·沃特）。梅森·戴饰演罗比/轰炸机（同样来自第五季），威尔·霍克曼饰演鱼雷，伊丽莎白·波西饰演天使列兵，伊桑·斯莱特则回归饰演他在《V世代》中的角色托马斯·戈多尔金。（克莱普克表示，该系列的其他角色也可能会客串登场。）
The main cast also includes KiKi Layne, Jorden Myrie, Nicolo Pasetti, Ricky Staffieri, and Brian J. Smith in as-yet-undisclosed roles. Vought Rising will premiere on Prime Video in 2027.
主要演员阵容还包括琪琪·莱恩、乔登·迈里、尼科洛·帕塞蒂、里基·斯塔菲里和布莱恩·J·史密斯，他们的角色尚未公布。《沃特崛起》将于 2027 年在 Prime Video 首播。
