Gen V season 2: Release date speculation, cast, news for The Boys spin-off
Season 2 is coming our way!
We've so very nearly reached the Gen V season 1 finale, but don't worry - not only can you next check in with the world of supes in The Boys season 4, but the college-set spin-off has also been renewed for season 2.
The series, which has proved hugely popular with fans of The Boys, follows a group of students at the college for superpowered individuals, Godolkin University, including Jaz Sinclair's Marie Moreau and Chance Perdomo's Andre Anderson.
Things really ramped up for our heroes at the end of episode 7, leaving viewers on a dramatic cliffhanger ahead of this first season's finale.
But, beyond the finale, when can fans expect to see Gen V season 2 arrive on Prime Video? Read on for everything you need to know.

Will there be a Gen V season 2?
Yes! Gen V has officially been renewed for season 2. Its renewal came before the end of season 1, with the cast sharing the good news on social media.
In a video posted to Twitter, which was recently rebranded as X, the cast were seen screaming with the caption reading: "Attention all God U students, Gen V is officially coming back for season 2."
Gen V season 2 release date speculation
Season 2's release date is not confirmed just yet, but we can speculate about when it could be coming our way.
Filming for season 1 began in May 2022, with the series beginning in September 2023. If we carry that timeline forward and assume that season 2 could start filming in 2024, we could be seeing that on screen sometime in 2025.
However, with the SAG-AFTRA strikes ongoing, it's unknown when the series might be able to start filming.
Gen V season 2 cast: Who will star?
Depending on what happens in the final episodes of season 2, we would expect most of our leading cast to return. That includes:
- Jaz Sinclair as Marie Moreau
- Chance Perdomo as Andre Anderson
- Lizze Broadway as Emma Shaw
- Maddie Phillips as Cate Dunlap
- Derek Luh and London Thor as Jordan Li
- Asa Germann as Sam Riordan
One star we might not see back is Patrick Schwarzenegger, who played Jason/Golden Boy. Considering his gruesome fate in season 1, it seems unlikely. We're not ruling it out completely, though - you never know what's round the corner with Gen V.
Meanwhile, Shelley Conn is also unlikely to return, after her character, Indira Shetty, was killed in the penultimate episode of the season.
Gen V season 2 plot: What could happen?
We'd expect the series to pick up after the events of season 1 - so stay tuned for those final episodes.
Something we also have to consider is that we'll have at least one more season of The Boys under our belts by then, with season 4 coming soon, so we're sure there'll be some tie-ins with the main series.
Maybe we'll even get a few more cameos from some very familiar supes.
