School is in session! Gen V, the college-set spin-off of The Boys, is being renewed for a second season at Amazon.
The announcement came in just weeks ahead of the show’s first season finale which is set to premiere on 3 November.
The Boys creator and Gen V executive producer Eric Kripke has confirmed in a statement with the show’s showrunner Michele Fazekas that “the writers are already working on the new season.”
Though plot details have not been revealed, the statement teased that season two is going to be wild, full of twists and as fans might’ve guessed, exploding genitalia.
“We couldn’t be happier to make a second season of Gen V,” Fazekas and Kripke said in a joint statement. “These are characters and stories we’ve grown to love, and we are thrilled to know people feel the same! The writers are already working on the new season — sophomore year is gonna be wild, with all the twists, heart, satire, and exploding genitalia you’ve come to expect from the show.”
Gen V is set in the diabolical world of The Boys and expands the universe to Godolkin University, the prestigious superhero-only college where students train to be the next generation of heroes. The series stars Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, Lizze Broadway, Shelley Conn, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sean Patrick Thomas, and Marco Pigossi.
Although a spin-off, Gen V takes place slightly after the events of The Boys season three so cameos are common, with hopes of a crossover a possibility sometime in the future. Thus far, Gen V has included cameos of characters Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles), The Deep (Chace Crawford), A-Train (Jessie T. Usher), Ashley Barrett (Colby Minifie), Victoria Neuman (Claudia Doumit) and Adam Bourke (P.J. Byrne).
Don’t judge a book by its cover, for behind all this makeup, is a geek just like you. To simply put it, superheroes, Star Wars, Harry Potter and all things gore and creepy makes this girly girl swoon.
