Gen V Season 2: Everything You Need to Know About the Upcoming Prime Video Series
The wait is almost over, Gen V Season 2 is coming soon to Prime Video, and fans are excited to return to Godolkin University. If you’re a fan of The Boys or just love gritty superhero stories, this college-set spin-off should be on your watchlist.
The next season will continue where both Gen V Season 1 and The Boys Season 4 left off. With new threats, secrets, and superpowers, there’s a lot coming your way.
Let’s break down the latest updates, including the release date, cast, trailer, and plot details.
When Does Gen V Season 2 Come Out?
Season 2 of Gen V drops on September 17, 2025, only on Prime Video. The premiere will include three episodes, and after that, a new episode will be released every week until the finale on October 22.
The release date and first trailer were officially revealed during CCXP Mexico 2025, along with a press announcement from Amazon.
Watch the Official Trailer
The teaser for the new season shows a darker and more intense world. The events follow right after Season 1 and connect directly to what happened in The Boys Season 4. The trailer hints at serious action, inner conflicts, and a bigger story ahead.
Who’s in the Cast?
Here’s a confirmed list of returning cast members:
- Jaz Sinclair as Marie Moreau
- Lizze Broadway as Emma Meyer
- London Thor & Derek Luh as Jordan Li
- Maddie Phillips as Cate Dunlap
- Asa Germann as Sam Riordan
- Sean Patrick Thomas as Polarity
- Hamish Linklater as Dean Cipher
Jordan Li is still portrayed by two actors, as the character can switch between male and female forms. Linklater joins as the new Dean after Indira Shetty was killed in Season 1.
We may see more returning students, though their names haven’t been officially shared yet.
Who’s Not Returning?
Unfortunately, Chance Perdomo, who played Andre Anderson, passed away in a motorcycle crash in March 2025. The creators confirmed they will not recast his role. Instead, the story has been changed to show that Andre died off-screen between Seasons 1 and 2.
Season 2 Story Summary
Here’s what we know about the plot:
Godolkin University is back in session, but everything has changed. Homelander now controls the country behind the scenes, and the school is being used to train Supes for his new world order. The new Dean, Cipher, is on a mission to turn students into elite weapons.
While Cate and Sam are treated as heroes, Marie, Jordan, and Emma return to school struggling with the trauma of past events. As tensions rise between Supes and humans, the group finds a secret program hidden deep within the school’s history. Marie may have a stronger connection to it than anyone knew.
This season will explore the idea of Supes being turned into soldiers, forced to fight each other to prove their worth. We get a glimpse of this in the trailer with Marie facing off against another student in a packed arena.
What Comes Next for Gen V?
The future of Gen V depends on three things:
- How well Season 2 performs
- Audience engagement
- The ending of The Boys Season 5
Since The Boys is wrapping up with its fifth and final season, it’s not clear if Gen V will continue. However, considering the huge success of the franchise, more spin-offs could still happen.
There are also rumors of a new The Boys spin-off based in Mexico, possibly featuring Diego Luna, but that hasn’t been confirmed yet.
Gen V Season 2 is set to deliver more action, more mystery, and deeper ties to The Boys universe. With rising tension between humans and Supes, the stakes have never been higher.
Set your reminders for September 17, and prepare for another wild semester at Godolkin University.
