The Amazon Prime hit superhero series ‘The Boys‘ is gearing up for its epic fifth and final season where some beloved characters characters are surely to meet their demise. Ahead of the finale, one fan favorite opened up about his “dream way” for his character to go out. Chace Crawford, who plays The Deep, revealed in a new interview that he has an idea in his head for his Aquaman-themed supe.
Crawford has been part of ‘The Boys‘ since the beginning and has played the troubled yet funny lord of the seven seas, The Deep. Over the seasons, fans have watched his character go through many misadventures and situations as he tries to find a place among the Seven. As the show heads towards its final season, Crawford was asked about how The Deep’s story should conclude. In a conversation with TV Guide, the actor shared his idea for the fate of his character.
Chace Crawford Envisions An Ironic Ending For The Deep
In an interview with TV Guide at SDCC ’24, Crawford was asked about the ideal way for The Deep to meet his end, to which Crawford replied, “A dream death pitch? Drowning somehow. It’d be really odd, I don’t know…Drowns in a bowl of soup. I just hope I live“.
The idea of The Deep, known for his mastery over water, and drowning would be a darkly comedic way for the character to go out and one befitting the show’s theme. After all his years utilizing his gills and strength in water, the thought of him losing that one advantage is an oddly fitting demise.

‘The Boys’ Season 5: What To Expect
While Crawford’s suggestion would make for a very ironic end for The Deep, it remains to be seen if Eric Kripke and the others behind the show go down that route. Season 5 will need to conclude all the storylines of the characters in a satisfying way as it serves as the one-and-done final season.
Regardless of how The Deep’s, fate plays out, fans are hugely anticipating the final season. With Homelander fully embracing his villainous side and in control of the country, the stakes will be higher than ever in the final season, Soldier Boy’s expanded role and comeback also allows for some potential explosive confrontations. Viewers will no doubt be on the edge of their seats to find out how it all ends for the show and its characters when ‘The Boys‘ final season premieres in 2026.
