The Boys favourite Karl Urban stars in first look at explosive new pirate revenge story

The Boys’ Karl Urban is a swashbuckling captain in first-look pictures from The Bluff, an epic period thriller from Frank E Flowers (Bob Marley: One Love).

The Bluff follows retired pirate Ercell “Bloody Mary” Bodden (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) as she tries to escape her violent past.

But the return of her notorious former captain, Connor (Karl Urban), forces her to confront the demons she’s tried to bury.

Ismael Cruz Cordova, Vedanten Naidoo and Safia Oakley-Green also star as Ercell’s family – over which she is fiercely protective.

The film is set in the Cayman Islands and features real-world locations including the Skull Cave and towering bluffs.

The Bluff is premiering globally on Prime Video on 25th February, so there’s not long to wait before Karl Urban graces our screens again.

For fans of The Boys, there’s good news too: season 5 will premiere on 8th April on Prime Video.

The first two episodes will drop at once, with the rest releasing weekly until 20th May.

The final season is set to be an emotional one, with stars taking to social media to reflect on their characters’ journeys.

The Boys’ creator Eric Kripke teased that season 5 takes place after the events of spinoff series Gen V. "Season 5 takes place a good amount of months after Gen V ends, so you'll also catch up what's been happening in the intervening time and how this resistance has been going. The spoiler I can give you is 'not well'," he said.

The Bluff is scheduled to be released on Amazon Prime Video on February 25th.
