Spoiler alert: This post contains plot details from the Season 1 finale of “Gen V.”
Antony Starr and Karl Urban — who star on Amazon’s Prime Video drama “The Boys” as Homelander and Billy Butcher, respectively — reprised their roles in the Season 1 finale of “Gen V.” And it turns out they were gracious enough to do it on their “day off” from filming as Homelander assists some fledgling supervillains and Billy ties the Supe virus storyline to “The Boys” Season 4.
“Of course with Homelander, we were always kicking around, ‘When do you want to see him?’ And, ‘When do you want to pull that card?’ Because it’s a rare thing, and we didn’t want to squander it,” “Gen V” showrunner Michele Fazekas told TheWrap of Starr’s cameo. “It had come up throughout the season, and then it just made sense as the sort of thing to happen in the finale.

The renewal arrives ahead of the Season 1 finale, scheduled to air on November 3 on Prime Video. While the Season 2 renewal is unsurprising, it’s welcomed news in the face of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike and a general air of uncertainty circulating throughout the film and television arenas.

Who's ready for even more bloody, disturbing, but oh-so-watchable superheroics? Prime Video has greenlit a second season of "Gen V," the college-bound spin-off series from the twisted minds responsible for "The Boys."

“Gen V” showrunner Michele Fazekas told TheWrap that the show’s team of writers lucked out when they learned their head of makeup, Colin Penman, knew how to build puppets. Penman’s talent helped them pull off their pitch for Sam Riordan’s (Asa Germann) violent puppet-fied fight scene in the Prime Video show’s fifth episode.
“We really got into the idea of shooting an action sequence exactly how you would shoot any action sequence. Nothing is different about it except for the fact that it’s puppets, and the sort of juxtaposing,” Fazekas told TheWrap.
Read on to find out how the puppet scene came together.

“Gen V” executive producer Eric Kripke said the explosive death of character Luke “Golden Boy” Riordan (Patrick Schwarzenegger) was a fixed plot within the “Gen V” that never changed during the writers’ creative ideation.
Spoiler alert: Continue reading for plot reveals from the first three episodes of “Gen V”
“Look, just to pull back the curtain, it’s just good pilot s–t. Your job in a pilot is to blow people’s minds so they want to keep watching,” Kripke told TheWrap on Thursday in a paired interview with the series’ showrunner Michele Fazekas.
“And it’s like undeniable proof that something is really wrong here,” Fazekas added.
As Fazekas put it, there is something very wrong at Godolkin University, which viewers learn in the first episode of the series “God U.” Hidden beneath the campus and past the corridors where invisible, nude Supes walk the halls, is a dark laboratory called “The Woods.

Gen V definitely has one of the best origin stories for a leading character in any movie or TV series. Spin-off to the hit anti-superhero series The Boys, Gen V is set in Vought’s Godolkin University aka “God U” and it follows the story of a group of young supes trying to learn how to be real heroes. But it is set in The Boys universe, so it couldn’t just be that as we see our heroes getting tangled in a conspiracy that might be too big for them to handle on their own.
Created by Eric Kripke, Evan Goldberg, and Craig Rosenberg and show run by Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters, Gen V has all the qualities The Boys fans were hoping for and a bit more. The spin-off series comfortably builds on The Boy’s themes with its own weird and fresh spin. The...

Ultra-violent superhero series “The Boys” centers around insidious corporation Vought, the corrupt superheroes it fosters and controls, and the vigilantes determined to dismantle it all, one supe at a time. The new spinoff series “Gen V” showcases a different, though no less evil side of Vought by examining a different age group’s dealings with their evil machinations.
In this case, a handful of super-powered college students find themselves in the thick of a vicious conspiracy lurking beneath the hallowed halls of Godolkin University School of Crimefighting. It makes for a completely different type of series than the parent show, though no less engaging or bloody.
Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair) overcame a tragic past, where she discovered her powerful ability to manipulate her blood through a shocking, violent act and found her way to Godolkin through scholarships. It makes her stand out among the affluent, privileged student body. When Marie gets expelled,...

As a wise man in a superhero movie once said “you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” Despite being only a youthful three seasons old, Prime Video’s The Boys currently finds itself in danger of violating Harvey Dent’s rule.
Based on a (mostly awful) comic of the same name, The Boys is about as cynical a superhero satire as you’re ever likely to find. The “supes” in Boys-world are rapists, murderers, fascists, and freaks. And what’s worse, the Vought Corporation propaganda apparatus built around them exists to make them as popular and inoffensive as your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. The Boys is absolutely scathing in its depiction of a late stage capitalistic system built upon nationalism, hero worship, and misplaced nostalgia.

From Prime Video’s “The Boys” comes its new spinoff “Gen V,” which centers on young superheroes who are fighting for their spot in the prestigious super group the Seven.
“Gen V” is centered on the first generation of superheroes to know about Compound V, an injectable chemical that can turn normal humans into powerful, nearly-unstoppable beings who possess abilities like mighty strength, telekinesis and super speed.
While competing to earn the top ranking at their school, Godolkin University School of Crimefighting, the young heroes will put their skills to the test while juggling their moral compass. And when the school’s dark and twisted secrets come to light, the students must decide between whether they’d like to be a hero or fly another more villainous route.
The cast includes Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, Lizze Broadway, Shelley Conn, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sean Patrick Thomas,...

Is “The Boys” a satire of superhero franchises or a superhero franchise itself? Such is the question posed by a show that is, among other things, a cautionary tale about corporate monopoly that airs on Amazon. So far, though, the answer is both — a delicate balance “The Boys” has sustained through three acclaimed seasons, an animated anthology series and, now, a live-action spinoff, the college-set “Gen V.” The contradictions of success may eventually take their toll on the pitch-black comedy and its satellites, which portray so-called superheroes as pawns of the rapacious Vought International. But “Gen V” retains the edge, cynicism and (aptly) adolescent humor that make its parent show tick, suggesting “The Boys” is far from the creative fatigue now plaguing juggernauts like the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

If you expected “Gen V” to be as subversive, perverse and brilliant as “The Boys,” only more sophomoric, you won’t be disappointed.
Prime Video’s college-set spin-off of TV’s smartest, sickest superhero show brings adolescent angst to the paranoid world powered by the chemical/military/supes entertainment conglomerate, Vought International. The show is centered on young people who were dosed at birth with the company’s extra-human abilities generating Compound V studying at Godolkin University. Everyone calls the place God U, where they either major in crime fighting or brand management.
Extracurricular concerns include social media notoriety, gender dysphoria, lost siblings, cutting, bulimia, suicide and the perennial parents who suck (as do most other adults). “Gen V” puts sci-fi spins on these and other youth-adjacent issues, which generates kooky but sometimes clever and resonant metaphors.
There’s also, of course, all the hooking up, getting wasted, uncontrolled outbursts...

Welcome, new students of Godolkin University! The spin-off of Prime Video’s breakout hit, the superhero satire The Boys, will be premiering in a few days. Gen V takes fans into the new generation of supers as they learn the lessons they need to be tried and true superheroes. Amazon has now released an orientation video for God U, the college that will be the setting for the show. The video features the stars of the show mugging it up for the camera as they parody the cheesy acting in the usual presentation for videos of this nature.
The official synopsis for Gen V from Amazon reads,
“Set in the diabolical world of The Boys, Gen V expands the universe to Godolkin University, the prestigious superhero-only college where students train to be the next generation of heroes – preferably with lucrative endorsements. You know what happens when supes go bad, but...

Set in the diabolical world of The Boys, Gen V expands the universe to Godolkin University, the prestigious superhero-only college where students train to be the next generation of heroes – preferably with lucrative endorsements.

Beyond the typical college chaos of finding oneself and partying, these kids are facing explosive situations … literally. As the students vie for popularity and good grades, it’s clear that the stakes are much higher when super powers are involved.

School is in session for a new generation of superpowered individuals in Prime Video’s official Gen V Redband trailer. After the monumental success of Prime Video’s The Boys, a new crop of potential heroes and villains rule the halls of a university designed to shape the alpha and omegas of tomorrow. Still, something isn’t quite right in the Godolkin University halls, and the mystery is claiming lives as it unfolds. Competition to be the best in class is fierce, and only some survive the experience. The halls run red with the blood of lesser classmen, and the race to become a member of the Seven, the world’s premiere superhero team, is as deadly as they come.

There's never a dull moment in The Boys universe, and we're sure Gen V will hold on to that when it finally premieres later this month.
Prime Video went public Wednesday with the full-length trailer, and it's a violent display of superheroes-in-the-making.
Gen V features an electric cast of younger superheroes, each with their own powers, and the footage hints at some powerful team-ups.
But that doesn't mean everyone gets along.
No, this group is pushed together in a way that doesn't sit right with their peers.
We see lots of bad decisions being made, which means the series will show heroes, villains, and those in between.
Set at America's only college exclusively for young adult superheroes (run by Vought International), Gen V explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the school's top ranking.

The series from Amazon’s streamer sets to expand “The Boys'” world of hyper-capitalist superheroes and corrupted mega-corporations by introducing the students of Godolkin University.

Since Vought International is probably behind the supes school at the center of The Boys spinoff Gen V, it should come as no surprise that sinister things are happening behind the scenes of the institution in a newly released trailer for the series.
While one character warns of evil people at the school, the students band together and show off their powers, even as they struggle with the fact that they’re “all f–ked up.”

Mumbai, July 25 (Ians) ‘Gen V’, the spin-off of the hit streaming series ‘The Boys’, recently released its teaser trailer and by the looks of it, the series looks to repeat the magic of its predecessor which enjoys a strong following.
The teaser trailer, which is over 2 minutes in length, begins with the display of insurmountable strength of the superheroes as they’re told that being a hero is not about glory but, it’s all about sacrifice.
The fan-favourite Homelander also makes an appearance during the initial part of the video asset which soon talks about the origins of the superheroes and the Godolkin University.
Godolkin University is America’s only college for young-adult superheroes (run by Vought International). ‘Gen V’ explores the training of the first generation of superheroes to know about Compound V, and that their powers were injected into them, rather than God-given. The young, competitive heroes...

How many superheroes would be too many superheroes? Those of us in the real world have been struggling to answer that question for over a decade now, as studios and streamers have gone all-in betting on capes and cowls to drive audiences again and again. In the world of "The Boys," people have been asking the very same question ... but the answers have been slightly more, uh, violent.
"The Boys" first arrived on the scene in 2019, thanks to the efforts of producers and creators Eric Kripke, Evan Goldberg, and Seth Rogen and based on Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson's original comic books. The subversive and totally irreverent streaming series instantly made an impact, providing the more adult-minded counter-programming viewers craved after seeing franchises like the Marvel Cinematic Universe completely take over. Now, after making a name for itself by doing everything that shared universes would never do, there's a...

School is in session for a new generation of superpowered individuals in Prime Video’s Gen V trailer. After the monumental success of Prime Video‘s The Boys, a new crop of potential heroes and villains rule the halls of a university designed to shape the alpha and omegas of tomorrow. Like any college setting, the Godolkin University campus houses students with big dreams, each capable of taking over the world if they apply themselves. Competition to be the best in class is fierce, and only some survive the experience. The halls run red with the blood of lesser classmen, and the race to become a member of the Seven, the world’s premiere superhero team, is as deadly as they come.

Changing the setting to a college campus was always going to be hit or miss for The Boys franchise.
Prime Video dropped the teaser trailer for the Gen V on Monday morning, and my first impression is that the series has managed to nail the tone from its predecessor.
The Boys has been one of the biggest success stories to hit TV screens for the streaming service since its launch in 2019, so there are high expectations for the latest chapter in the franchise.
Set at America's only college exclusively for young adult superheroes (run by Vought International), Gen V explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the school's top ranking.
