The second season of “Gen V,” the spinoff series of “The Boys,” is set to premiere on Prime Video on September 17, with the first three episodes to be released simultaneously, followed by weekly episodes that lead up to the season finale on October 22.
During a recent panel at CCXP México, fans were given a sneak peek of the upcoming season, featuring discussions with cast members Jaz Sinclair, Lizze Broadway, London Thor, and Derek Luh. This season picks up with America grappling with the authoritarian rule of Homelander, while students return to Godolkin University under the guidance of the new and enigmatic Dean Cipher. The curriculum this year aims to enhance the students’ superpowers, raising the stakes as tensions flare between Humans and Supes.
According to the logline for Season 2, protagonists Cate and Sam are hailed as heroes, while Marie, Jordan, and Emma struggle to navigate college life, weighed down by past traumas. As campus life resumes with its typical distractions like parties and classes, the group uncovers a covert program rooted in the university’s history, which may have far-reaching consequences—particularly for Marie.
The second season features returning stars Jaz Sinclair as Marie Moreau, Lizze Broadway as Emma Meyer, and Maddie Phillips as Cate Dunlap, among others. New to the cast is Hamish Linklater, who plays Dean Cipher. The production team includes Michele Fazekas as showrunner, alongside a roster of executive producers such as Eric Kripke, Seth Rogen, and Garth Ennis.
With high stakes and complex character dynamics, viewers can expect an engaging return to the chaos of Godolkin University. The anticipation surrounding the series suggests that it may resonate strongly with fans, as the narrative continues to delve into themes of power, trauma, and the human condition.
