Everything We Know About ‘Gen V’ Season 2

Amazon Prime has had a string of successful comic book adaptations, with both The Boys and Invincible being major hits. Now, building on the success of The Boys, the streaming service released a spin-off series titled Gen V back in September 2023. The series ran for eight episodes in total and was yet another smashing hit for the streaming service, which – of course – led to the announcement of a second season. The second season is currently in the early production stages, and Amazon is slowly working on continuing the series, which is what we are going to prepare you for with this report as well.

In this report, as you might have guessed, we are going to bring you all that we know about the upcoming second season of Gen V in one place. You are going to find out all that we know about the series’ release date, episode count, plot, trailer, and cast, ahead of the upcoming premiere. This will be your go-to guide for all the info in one place, as the article is going to be updated regularly as more information is released.

Gen V Season 2 release date

The series was renewed for a second season in October 2023, after the success of the first season, which also served as a bridge between seasons three and four of The Boys, the main series in the franchise. The series has since entered production, which was delayed indefinitely due to the tragic death of actor Chance Perdomo. The series will continue shooting this year, but a release window has not been given as of the time of writing, and we doubt it will be before 2025.

How many episodes will Gen V Season 2 have?

The episode count is always an important piece of information for fans, which is why everyone is eager to know how many episodes an upcoming season is going to have. As far as Gen V Season 2 is concerned, we don’t know how many episodes the upcoming season will have. The first season had eight episodes and knowing that The Boys also have a consistent episode count in all seasons, Gen V Season 2 could also have eight episodes, but we’ll have to wait for a confirmation.

Gen V Season 2 trailer

As we have said above, the second season of Gen V is on a break due to Chance Pedromo’s death, which delayed the productio, which means that it is still way too early for a trailer, even a teaser. Until filming begins, we won’t have access to any material from the upcoming season, so there is no trailer or teaser for Gen V Season 2 at this moment. But, new videos will be available on Prime Video’s official YouTube channel, so we are going to bring them here as soon as they arrive.

Gen V Season 2 plot

The exact premise of the second season of Gen V is not known, as it all depends on the ending of Season 4 of The Boys, but here is an official synopsis of the series in general: “From the world of The Boys comes Gen V, a thrilling new series set at America’s only college for superheroes. These gifted students put their moral boundaries to the test, competing for the university’s top ranking, and a chance to join The Seven, Vought International’s elite superhero team. When the school’s dark secrets come to light, they must decide what kind of heroes they want to become.“

Gen V Season 2 cast

As we have said, it is way too early to have any official casting updates, as the season hasn’t even entered production properly. Still, we do have some information related to the cast, including the confirmation that Chance Perdomo’s character won’t be recast for the second season. Here is what we know:

• Season 2 returning cast: Jaz Sinclair as Marie Moreau, Lizze Broadway as Emma Meyer / Little Cricket, Maddie Phillips as Cate Dunlap, London Thor and Derek Luh as Jordan Li, Asa Germann as Samuel “Sam” Riordan, Shelley Conn as Indira Shetty

• Season 2 new cast: Hamish Linklater as TBC

Where to watch Gen V Season 2?

As was the case for the previous season of the series, the second season of Gen V will be available on Amazon Prime, which has the exclusive distribution rights for the series. This is also the only place where you can watch the previous season as well.
