Much like its predecessor, The Boys, Prime's Gen V follows the lives of superpowered individuals; however, rather than focusing on powerful and influential figures like Homelander, Gen V tells the story of the up-and-coming generation of heroes. That said, these young heroes are far from insignificant, and altogether, they possess some of the strongest abilities in The Boys universe, resulting in several memorable Supe fights during the show's first season.
From Marie Moreau's ability to control and manipulate blood to Cate Dunlap's telepathic talents, there is no shortage of memorable powers that appear in Gen V. These powers and the Supes that wield them are extremely dangerous, which is why it's so riveting when these superpowered individuals finally square off with their enemies in a series of battles that rivals any from The Boys.

Season 4 of The Boys introduces new characters blurring lines between good and evil. Ambrosius and Joe Kessler add depth and darkness to the series in unique ways. New characters like Firecracker, Cate Dunlap, Sam Riordan, Daphne Campbell, Sister Sage, and Black Noir II add intrigue and complexity.
Season 4 of The Boys raised the stakes as the series races toward its final season, and the show introduced a variety of new characters.

Based on the comic book of the same name by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, the show presents a world of powered people who begin to view themselves as above regular humans. Rather than protecting the weak, these supes live according to any whim they possess, regardless of who gets hurt.

One of the more absurd corporate gimmicks The Boys parodied this season was actually inspired by its own distributor.
In an X post, showrunner Eric Kripke assessed a gag from Season 4's "Beware the Jabberwock, My Son" where Cameron Coleman and The Deep reveal how Vought uses "custom-made digital product placement" to supposedly appeal to its diverse audience's interests. Citing a Marketing Brew article, Kripke revealed that this concept -- whose algorithmic choices were depicted as comedically out of touch on the show -- is real and "Amazon pitched it to us for The Boys, we said no thanks, but we're definitely making a joke about it in Season 4. Then we did."
Y'know, custom digital product placement is a real thing, you guys. Amazon pitched it to us for #TheBoys, we said no thanks, but we're definitely making a joke about it in Season 4. Then we did. https://t.co/dEi8Vc3IXS pic.

Generations collide on The Boys' latest episode, a sign of Homelander's long-term ambitions.
In a conversation with Variety, showrunner Eric Kripke discussed the choice to bring Gen V's Cate Dunlap and Sam Riordan into Vought's inner circle and how these cameos might tie into the spinoff's upcoming season. As he explained, making Cate and Sam part of the D23-inspired V52 panel gave Homelander some degree of "cover to bring different superheroes close to him as he's starting to put together this army. And it made sense that Cate, who is also a supe supremacist, would want to sign up for that. I think Sam is a little more reluctant, but he also doesn't really speak up with his own opinions he sort of needs to evolve into that still as a character.

Since its June 13, 2024 premiere, “The Boys” Season 4 has been going strong, attracting significant attention as it heads into its penultimate season. Currently Certified Fresh with high ratings, Amazon reports an increase in viewership for the series. Despite this success, some fans are review-bombing the season due to its heightened political undertones. However, the show’s parody elements remain a highlight. In the latest episode, “The Boys” took a jab at Disney with their V52 Expo, a spoof of Disney’s D23, where they announced a slew of new fictional projects.
The V52 Expo continues the show’s tradition of satirizing Disney, particularly its MCU efforts. None of these announced projects will come to fruition, adding another layer of meta-humor to the series. The Expo, hosted by The Deep (Chace Crawford) and Cameron Coleman (Matthew Edison), revealed 32 fictional films and shows for the Vcu (Vought Cinematic Universe) Phases 7-10.

"The Boys" season 4 will soon be upon us, but we'd be remiss to forget the spin-off series "Gen V." I was skeptical about the college-set superhero show, but it proved to have the same audacious spirit as its parent program ("Gen V" has pluckier leads too).
One of the most memorable "Gen V" scenes is the "puppet massacre" in episode 5, "Welcome to the Monster Club." Sam Riordan (Asa Germann), a super-strong teenager who's been locked in a lab, goes berserk and tears some attacking soldiers apart. But due to his loose grip on reality, he imagines himself and the others as Muppets, leading to a scene where Sam disembowels men but we only see puppet blood and bones. "The Boys" and "Gen V" are not shy about violence, so this altered reality has nothing to do with censorship. Rather, it explores Sam's character and his childish outlook on violence he...

The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke has shared a pre-production update regarding the current status of Season 5. This comes after two weeks since the hit superhero show successfully scored an early season renewal, ahead of its impending return this coming June.
During a recent interview with Screen Rant, Kripke admitted they have just opened the writers room for The Boys Season 5, revealing that he doesnt have anything concrete to share story wise since its still currently in the early stages of development. "Even I don't. I mean, we're about a month into the writers' room right now, so we have some pretty cool notions," he said. "It's a very raw lava-esque deal right now. It hasn't hardened into anything, but I'm excited. I think there's some crazy sh-t's been talked about, that's for sure."

The Boys is one of the most popular superhero series in the world at this moment. The twisted take on the superhero genre, adapted from the comic book of the same name, became a major hit for Amazon Prime and a series that has pushed the boundaries of what can be shown on TV in more ways than one. After three successful seasons and a spin-off series, the fourth season of The Boys is coming back later this year, with the premiere scheduled for June 13, 2024 but today, a month before the upcoming season’s premiere, we have received confirmation that The Boys have been renewed for Season 5, which is absolutely amazing!
Not much has been revealed at this point, but Amazon has released a short teaser video featuring Kimiko, which confirms the renewal. As you might have guessed, we are going to show this teaser to you in the upcoming paragraphs.

Trailer footage for The Boys season 4 strongly suggests Sam Riordan is the new Black Noir. Sam and Cate standing with A-Train at Vought HQ hints the two Gen V characters play key roles in the new season. The trailer proves Black Noir II has more or less the same powers as his predecessor. Sam fits that bill perfectly.
A huge Black Noir replacement theory that was already gaining momentum ahead of The Boys season 4 is made even more likely by two key moments from trailer footage. While the original Black Noir was ruthlessly killed by Homelander in The Boys season 3's ending, the silent Seven supe is nevertheless confirmed as appearing in The Boys season 4. Vought has hired another character to secretly replace Noir and hide his death from the public, but the new face behind the mask is becoming a growing mystery for Amazon's superhero franchise.

The official trailer for "The Boys" season 4 just dropped, and it looks like some of the antiheroes in Prime Video's hit series are having a bit of an identity crisis. "Violence isn't brave," Jack Quaid's Hughie says at one point, noting that the titular kill squad should probably stop killing everyone if they actually want to save the world. Of course, in typical "The Boys" fashion, that nice sentiment is surrounded on all sides by violence: rooms full of dead bodies, a leg getting sawed off, and a guy going splat against a building, among other (gross) things.
That last kill will surely be of interest to fans of the series, as it's committed by Butcher's own stepson, Ryan (Cameron Crovetti), who's now under the tutelage of his biological dad, weirdo supervillain Homelander (Antony Starr). After he seemingly explodes a guy against a building, Ryan is rewarded with...

The countdown to the fourth season of Amazon Prime’s critically acclaimed series The Boys has begun. A new trailer for the latest recently dropped while also reiterating that we are a little over a month away from the fourth installment, which promises to answer several lingering questions about the conflict between the titular group and Vought-sponsored supes.
The original Black Noir was killed off in The Boys season 3
One question fans hope the season answers will revolve around the mysterious return of The Seven member Black Noir, who was unceremoniously killed by Homelander in the third season. As the trailer provides a glimpse at Black Noir’s return, it also hints at how the character will be revived, and a Gen V character could be at the center of it all. Here is how a Gen V supe might replace Black Noir.

The trailer for season four of The Boys has arrived, with our first confirmation that it will have a crossover with spinoff series Gen V and that we will see the superheroes facing their greatest challenge yet.
In the trailer, we hear Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher tell his team, “I look back on my life, and all I see are the messes I’ve made…and I ain’t got time to fix it. I can do one thing right with the time I’ve got left, but I can’t do it alone. I can’t do it without you.” From here, we see that the team will be forced to come to terms with their celebrity, particularly how it will shift as they go on their next missions and evolve into “wrathful gods.”

The trailer of season 4 of The Boys saw many surprises, including a return from Black Noir. The iconic character was killed at the end of season 3 by the Homelander for not telling him about his father. However, the new season sees the silent, masked hero returning to fight Billy the Butcher and the gang in an action-packed scene.
The trailer sees a hand-to-hand combat between Butcher and Black Noir at an office. While fans were excited to see Black Noir returning, they were greeted with an appearance from Gen V’s Asa Germann, who plays Sam Riordan. This sparked a fan theory that Riordan would don the Black Noir suit in the upcoming season.

The Super Bowl video for The Boys season 4 suggests that Cate and Sam from Gen V will likely appear in the upcoming season, potentially as replacements for major supes who left Vought in season 3. Cate and Sam would be valuable assets in a fight against The Boys, with Sam's physical strength and Cate's ability to manipulate reality making them formidable opponents. Their roles in season 4 remain unclear, but they look to be active supes under Vought's banner.
Two Gen V characters look even more likely to appear in The Boys season 4 after the release of a brand-new promo video. The first live-action spinoff in Amazon's The Boys franchise, Gen V proved to be deeply connected to its parent series.

The Boys season 4 could potentially feature some Gen V cameos in higher places.
Speaking to TVLine, Gen V executive producer Michele Fazekas hinted at a few of the show's teen protagonists joining Homelander as member of the Seven, albeit at a moral cost. "That will always be the carrot," she teased, adding, "It's like, this is a thing that you want, but the carrot is interesting because the carrot's starting to get rotten, and I think our people are starting to figure that out — which is not to say that they're not going to take it anyway. Because if you limit their choices enough, it starts looking pretty good. But I don't know… that's another thing where you want to be very, very mindful of when you pull that card."

For most of the first season of Prime Video’s Gen V, Lizze Broadway’s Emma Meyer was predictably found with her roommate Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair) or Sam Riordan (Asa Germann), the young Supe she saved from captivity at the sinister underground research center known as The Woods. With The Boys’ first live-action spin-off series being such a hit among the franchise’s dedicated fandom, a second season is on the way with the Season 1 finale leaving viewers on a cliffhanger. During an interview with Collider’s Perri Nemiroff for an installment of Nemiroff’s Ladies Night series, Broadway chatted about who she hopes to see Emma bond with during the next batch of episodes.

Gen V introduces two new teenagers, Cate and Sam, who could significantly strengthen The Boys' current lineup of the Seven. Sam possesses immense physical strength, comparable to Queen Maeve, making him a formidable addition to the team. Cate's power to manipulate and control others through touch makes her a formidable force, capable of rewriting reality and posing a huge threat to Homelander's enemies.
Gen V has positioned two teens as Seven debutantes for The Boys season 4, and this new lineup could potentially become the strongest iteration of the team thus far. In the world of The Boys, the Seven is renowned as Earth's premiere superhero team, but after The Boys season 3's ending, Vought's biggest merchandise-shifters are shadows of their former selves. The Seven currently consists of Homelander, A-Train, who is recovering from a heart transplant, and The Deep, a frequent butt of aquatic jokes.

Sam's lack of puppet visions in the Gen V season 1 finale solidifies his role as a villain, as he no longer needs them to justify his violent actions. Sam starts seeing Golden Boy instead of puppets in the finale, representing his conscience and urging him to make the right choices, which he consistently ignores. The disappearance of the Golden Boy hallucination is caused by Sam's desire to numb his feelings and embrace his violent tendencies, making him even more dangerous in the process.
One of the most unique elements of Gen V is its puppet scenes, and here's why Sam stops seeing puppets in the Gen V season 1 finale and why he sees Golden Boy instead. Throughout Gen V, several scenes consist of Sam interacting with puppet versions of real characters, whether it involves him ripping apart puppet soldiers or having sex with a puppet version of Emma.

It’s anyone’s guess what will come next for Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair), Andre Anderson (Chance Perdomo), Jordan Li (Derek Luh and London Thor), Emma Meyer (Lizze Broadway), Cate Dunlap (Maddie Phillips) and Sam Riordan (Asa Germann), so it’s good to know that not only will there be a Season 2, but some of these events will bleed into Season 4 of The Boys, which could lead to some answers even sooner.

Colin Penman, head of makeup for Prime Video’s hit “The Boys” spinoff “Gen V,” broke down the how the show pulled off its violent puppet massacre with a crew that had no puppet-building experience, and the most challenging prop that required 1,000 gallons of fake blood.
From action-packed fighting scenes, bloody explosions to human-sized fake penises, working on a show like “Gen V” isn’t for the faint of heart. And it calls for creatives like Penman, who have a unique set of skills that can help bring the ideas that come from the writers room to life, even if it’s building puppets.
“When we pitched [puppets] initially, we were like ‘This is going to sound crazy.’ And [Penman’s] like, ‘Oh, I’ve done that before.’ We may have started [making the puppets] a little into the previous episodes, but he had done this before. I couldn’t believe it,” showrunner Michele Fazekas told TheWrap in a previous interview.

"When they were breaking the virus storyline, they just had to be in regular communication with me in my room to understand, "Is that a thing out in the world that'll be helpful to us or is it going to f--- us?"

Jensen Ackles is making a cameo appearance as Soldier Boy in the next episode of The Boys spinoff, Gen V. Despite Soldier Boy's dangerous and temperamental nature, the protagonists search for him to defeat Antony Starr's character, but he fails. While it is unclear what Soldier Boy's role will be in Gen V, Jensen Ackles could have a larger role in James Gunn's new Dcu as the new Batman.
Gen V is bringing back one of the most recently introduced but extremely popular characters from The Boys. That's right, the next episode of the spinoff of the hit Amazon Prime Video show will include a cameo by Jensen Ackles as Soldier Boy. After starring on Supernatural for 15 years, Ackles decided to take on a new challenge in his acting career and followed Eric Kripke, who was the original creator of The CW series, to join the cast of The Boys.

The latest promo trailer for Gen V has dropped, teasing the appearance of a fan-favorite The Boys character in its upcoming episode.
Released on Prime Video, the 30-second trailer finally confirmed which Gen V episode will feature Jensen Ackles’ long-awaited Soldier Boy cameo. The villainous Supe is set to appear in the upcoming sixth episode of the college-set spinoff titled "Jumanji," which is written by Lauren Greer. Soldier Boy was last seen by fans during the Season 3 finale of The Boys, in which he was once again put under a cryogenic sleep, and has now been taken into custody by the government. That’s why, it remains unclear if Soldier Boy’s surprise appearance would be a part of a flashback sequence, or did he somehow manage to escape captivity leading him to meet Godolkin University’s brightest students.
