The Boys' college spin-off series finally has an official title: Gen V. The spin-off is described as "an irreverent, R-rated series that explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test." Set in a college for Supes, it sees youngsters tested in Hunger Games-style challenges. 

Prime Video announced the news with a video featuring the new show's cast members that was posted to social media. "I'm so excited to be a part of this show, and I'm so excited for you guys to watch it," Jaz Sinclair began, adding: "There's love and beautiful relationships, and tons of action and superheroes." "With lots of hormones and drama and mystery" continued Maddie Phillips. "It's got everything The Boys has – the intensity, the grit, the humor," said Asa Germann.

"It's gonna be a roller coaster. It's gonna be filled with blood, guts, and everything else," said Lizze Broadway. "This will rock your socks off," added Patrick Schwarzenegger, who is reportedly playing a character named Golden Boy. "Superheroes, college… what could go wrong?" quipped newcomer London Thor. And according to Chance Perdomo? "It's fucked up. You're gonna like it."

Filming is currently underway in Canada, and Schwarzenegger recently told Variety: "This set is really fun, and there’s just a loosey-goosey comedy. It’s kind of like Euphoria meets superheroes."
