Gen V creator gives exciting update on second season of The Boys spin-off

After the shockingly dark turn things took in the penultimate season of The Boys (well, as dark as things can get in this world), it’ll sure make a nice change of pace to head back to college in the second season of Gen V, the spin-off series that follows young supes-in-the-making. In the season 1 finale, our band of college students trying for their capes were rounded up and thrown into an unknown location, leaving Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) to check out what was left behind. An update from showrunner Eric Kripke reveals that we’ll get our first at a college reunion very soon, with the second season all but done and dusted.

Taking to X and breaking the news to fans, Kripke announced, “Okay #GenV update! Eps are done editing, doing music, sound & VFX now. Finishing up the first trailer. Trailer drop & date announcement coming soon (I think this season is better than S1 & will be worth the wait).” It’s certainly a bold claim to make given just how surprisingly great the spin-off was and how much slack it will be picking up between his big brother show that is close to calling curtains on its entire story. The merging of these two corners of this universe has already taken place too, thanks to two cast members from Gen V who have joined the star-spangled psychopath Homelander (Antony Starr).
