‘Gen V’: ‘The Boys’ College Spin-Off Series Gets A Title
Whilst there is no new episode of ‘The Boys‘ this week following the third season’s gory and spectacular finale last week, the producers have dropped a name and video for the new spin-off series – ‘Gen V‘.
Set at America’s only college exclusively for young-adult superheroes (run by Vought International), ‘Gen V’ is 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, competing for the best contracts in the best cities. It’s part college show, part Hunger Games – with all the heart, satire, and raunch of ‘The Boys’.
The series is currently in production, but they did release a video on social media of the cast announcing the title:
