Jessie T. Usher confirms A-Train will return in The Boys Season 5
Jessie T. Usher, who portrays A-Train in The Boys, has confirmed his character’s return in the upcoming fifth and final season.
In a now-deleted Instagram Story, Usher wrote, “Here comes season 5,” effectively dispelling rumors of his potential exit after Season 4’s conclusion. A-Train’s storyline had left viewers in suspense as he fled New York with his family, leaving his fate and involvement with the series uncertain.
This confirmation aligns with the unresolved aspects of A-Train’s narrative arc. Introduced as one of The Seven, A-Train’s character has shifted from being reckless and self-centered to grappling with guilt and seeking redemption. By the end of Season 4, he was exposed as a mole working against Homelander and Vought. This forced him to flee after removing his tracking chip. His return in The Boys Season 5 indicates the continuation and likely conclusion of his storyline.
Season 5 will explore the repercussions of Homelander’s consolidation of power over Vought and the U.S. government. A-Train’s precarious position between The Seven, The Boys, and his own safety adds complexity to his role. With his betrayal exposed to Homelander, his return suggests he may have a key role in the growing conflict.
As the series nears its conclusion, A-Train’s return ensures the resolution of key plot threads from previous seasons. With high stakes and intense confrontations on the horizon, his storyline will likely reflect themes of redemption and justice. His presence builds anticipation for the series’ climactic finale.
