Prime Video Reveals Release Date and Poster For Gen V Series

The highly anticipated new series, Gen V, will usher in a new generation of superheroes to Prime Video. The premiere date and poster for The Boys spinoff were revealed by Netflix on Thursday.

Gen V will premiere the first three episodes of season 1 on Friday, September 29th before continuing weekly until the season finale on November 3rd.

Furthermore, the first trailer for the series features Jaz Sinclair’s debut as Marie Moreau, a role first teased with a photograph in The Boys season 3 episode “The Only Man in the Sky.”

Gen V “explores the training of the first generation of superheroes to know about Compound V, and that their powers were injected into them, rather than God-given,” according to Prime Video. These young, competitive heroes put their physical and moral limits to the test as they competed for the school’s coveted top ranking.”

In addition, they quickly discover that striving for success requires sacrifice and that, contrary to what they initially thought, there is no simple line dividing right and wrong. Students must decide what kind of heroes they will become when the university’s dark secrets are revealed.

Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters, who previously worked on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, serve as showrunners and executive producers.

Moritz, Ori Marmur, Pavun Shetty, Ken Levin, Jason Netter, Garth Ennis, and Nelson Cragg.
