The universe of The Boys has expanded with the arrival of spin-off Gen V, which has released its first three episodes on Prime Video. 

Set between the third and upcoming fourth series of the original, the teen spin-off revolves around a group of super-powered students at Vought-owned superhero college Godolkin University, where they’re put to the test and given the opportunity to make it all the way to The Seven.

The series stars new cast members Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, Shelley Conn and Asa Germann, but also reunites fans with some old friends (and foes) from The Boys.

Talking about how the new spin-off differs from the original, Germann recently explained: “In The Boys, we’re seeing a bunch of superheroes where they wound up. We see Homelander as the leader of the Seven. And we see the Seven, we follow people like The Deep and A-Train and Starlight as they kind of navigate their journey through this industry, this business, the world that they’ve created.

“But in this show, we aren’t only following the Supes in terms of their journey about becoming Supes. We’re following their journey in terms of how they’re becoming people, and how they’re growing up and evolving and learning and creating relationships and destroying relationships, and really at a core, like figuring out what it means to be a hero.”
