Supernatural fans will be thrilled to find numerous references and Easter eggs from the show in The Boys. One of the most exciting connections is the cameo appearance of the Winchesters' iconic Impala, affectionately known as "Baby." Jensen Ackles and Jim Beaver, who starred in Supernatural, have also joined The Boys, creating a creative reunion with Eric Kripke, the creator of both shows. Kripke pays tribute to Supernatural through the use of classic rock songs and iconic shots in The Boys.

There is no secret that Supernatural and The Boys have had recent crossovers. With Kripke as the series creator, it was inevitable for nods to be included in his latest show. Despite the stark differences between the two shows, Kripke has made sure to include plenty of Easter eggs for Supernatural fans to enjoy. Ackles, who played Dean Winchester in Supernatural, now stars as Soldier Boy in The Boys, providing an exciting creative reunion with Kripke.

There are even Supernatural Easter eggs hidden in Ackles' scenes, adding an extra layer of enjoyment for fans. The Boys, a show that deconstructs the superhero genre and pushes boundaries, still manages to incorporate references from Supernatural.

The appearance of the Winchesters' Impala in The Boys is a nod to its significance in Supernatural's fifteen-season run. In a Season 2 finale, a video shows the Impala running down a character for her white supremacist beliefs, drawing parallels to Dean Winchester killing Hitler in Supernatural.

This cameo serves as foreshadowing for Ackles' appearance as Soldier Boy in the following season. Jim Beaver, who played Bobby Singer in Supernatural, also makes an appearance in The Boys as Secretary of Defense Robert Singer. This has led fans to speculate that Singer may be an alternate universe version of the Bobby from Supernatural, considering the multiverse possibilities established in the Supernatural series.
