Gen V Plot and Cast
When the spinoff was originally announced in September 2021, Collider reported it being described by Amazon as “part college show, part Hunger Games – with all the heart, satire, and raunch of The Boys”.
In further news, GEN V has been said to follow “the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes” at the Godolkin University School of Crimefighting, run by Vought International, “as they put their physical, sexual and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the best contracts in the best cities”.
GEN V will also focus on the G-Men, Garth Ennis, and Darick Robertson’s original parody of Marvel’s X-Men, who were briefly mentioned in the first season of The Boys.
Coming to the cast, We do have some official cast details: Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sean Patrick Thomas, Marco Pigossi, Lizze Broadway, Jaz Sinclair alongside Chance Perdomo, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann, and Shelley Conn.
