Gen V‘s return to Prime Video grows closer each passing month as The Boys spinoff prepares to bring viewers back to Godolkin University for an all-new school year at the Supe college.
The series, which originally debuted in September 2023, was quickly renewed in October of that year, and after teases about the show’s 2025 return, we’re breaking down everything we know so far about Gen V Season 2 below. Scroll down for a closer look at all the need-to-know details about the rowdy spinoff, and stay tuned for new details as they emerge in the weeks ahead.
When does Gen V Season 2 premiere?
During The Boys‘ appearance at San Diego Comic-Con 2024, it was announced that Season 2 of the college-set spinoff will officially premiere in 2025, with an exact month and date to be announced. Stay tuned for updates on any news surrounding the premiere in 2025.
Does Gen V Season 2 have a trailer?
No, there’s no trailer for Gen V Season 2 yet, but the show’s official social media page teased that fans may be getting a peek at something during their presentation at CCXP Mexico on Saturday, May 31, 2025. “Sophomore year incoming. Syllabus arrives this Saturday at CCXP Mexico!” A poster of Jaz Sinclair’s Marie was captioned. The image hints at The Boys‘ implementation of martial law and how Marie and her cohorts might “resist” that control. Check it out below, and stay tuned for any sneak peeks.

Who is returning for Gen V Season 2?
Jaz Sinclair, London Thor, Derek Luh, Lizze Broadway, Asa Germann, and Maddie Phillips will all return for the upcoming season, which will likely pick up after the events of The Boys‘ most recent fourth season, which featured Phillips and Germann’s Cate and Sam. As for additional cast members, we’re keeping our fingers crossed for more crossover with The Boys after the inclusion Homelander (Antony Starr), Billy Butcher (Karl Urban), and more favorites in Season 1.
Who is joining Gen V Season 2’s cast?
New additions for Season 2 include Hamish Linklater as Cipher, the newly appointed Dean of Godolkin University, who is described as “charismatic and charming.” A trained scientist, Cipher is politically savvy and has the trust of officials at the highest level. Meanwhile, it was more recently announced by Deadline that Season 2 will also add Keeya King, Stephen Kalyn, Julia Knope, Stacey McGunnigle, Tait Fletcher, Wyatt Dorion, and Georgie Murphy to its roster in recurring roles.
Will Andre be part of Gen V Season 2?
As fans may recall, star Chance Perdomo died as a result of a motorcycle accident prior to the start of filming for Season 2, which means Perdomo wasn’t able to shoot any scenes as Andre for the upcoming chapter. It was previously announced by the creative team of Gen V that Perdomo’s role will not be recast for the upcoming chapter, but it’s unclear how the show will handle his absence. We’ll be sure to share updates once they’re available.
Is Gen V filming Season 2?
Season 2 of the series was in production in 2024, as teased by star Derek Luh, who shared a photo of his trailer on Instagram in May. Production has since concluded with the official Gen V social media account posting, “That’s a wrap on sophomore year .”

What is Gen V Season 2 about?
After Andre, Marie (Sinclair), Jordan (Luh and Thor), and Emma (Broadway) were detained at the end of Season 1, Cate and Sam were launched as the Guardians of Godolkin. As the guardians teamed up with The Seven to implement Homelander’s deputizing of Supes, we await news on what has happened to the imprisoned Supes. Hopefully, Season 2 will pick up with the explanation we’re dying to learn, picking up where The Boys left off.
