The Boys' explosive spin-off, Gen V , took the world by storm with its wild mix of supe drama, gore, and satire at Godolkin University. After a jaw-dropping Season 1 finale, fans are buzzing for Season 2. When will it drop? Who's returning? What chaos awaits? Here's everything we know so far about Gen V Season 2, from release date speculation to cast updates and juicy plot details! Gen V Season 2 Release Date
As of June 01, 2025, Amazon Prime Video has confirmed that Gen V Season 2 will premiere on September 17, 2025. The announcement came via a post from the official Prime Video X account, revealing that the season will kick off with the first three episodes, followed by weekly releases every Wednesday until the finale on October 22, 2025. Filming began in May 2024 after an initial delay due to the tragic passing of actor Chance Perdomo and wrapped in November 2024, as shared by the official Gen V X account. This timeline aligns with Season 1, which debuted roughly a year after filming concluded, supporting the late 2025 release window. Gen V Season 2 Cast Details
The core cast of Gen V is set to return for Season 2, bringing back the young supes of Godolkin University: Jaz Sinclair as Marie Moreau, the blood-bending freshman navigating a complex conspiracy.
Lizze Broadway as Emma Meyer, the size-shifting student grappling with trauma and loss.
Maddie Phillips as Cate Dunlap, a mind manipulator now hailed as a 'Guardian of Godolkin.'
London Thor and Derek Luh as Jordan Li, the gender-shifting supe facing Vought's schemes.
Asa Germann as Sam Riordan, Cate's ally in the pro-supe movement tied to Homelander. Gen V Season 2 Potential Plot
Gen V Season 2 picks up after the explosive Season 1 finale, where Marie, Jordan, Emma, and Andre were detained in a doorless facility following a bloody battle at Godolkin University, while Cate and Sam were crowned 'Guardians of Godolkin' by Vought. The season ties closely to The Boys Season 4, reflecting a new political landscape where Homelander consolidates power and pushes a pro-supe agenda.

MrBeast aims to raise millions for his charity by offering a weekend experience to six-figure donors
NEW YORK (AP) — MrBeast plans to turn the success of his Amazon Prime Video reality competition series into millions of dollars for charity. YouTube's biggest creator is offering an exclusive weekend on the set of Beast Games Season 2 to the first 40 donors who make $100,000 gifts to his registered nonprofit. The earliest contributors and up to two guests each will spend June 27-29 touring MrBeast's North Carolina studio, hearing from the production team in a private Q&A and visiting Beast Philanthropy's food pantry. The invitation comes as Jimmy Donaldson's reported $5 billion media empire surpasses 400 million subscribers on YouTube, where he had already set the record for the biggest following. But the call raises a question: Who among his following of young people and their parents can make a six-figure donation? 'I have some big charity projects I want to fund so I think it's a win/win,' MrBeast said in a post on X. Rallying his fervent fan base to make their own contributions marks a new fundraising strategy for Donaldson. He has long stated that his YouTube pages' featured charitable work is funded with his Beast Philanthropy channel's revenue. The content has drawn a mix of praise from fans for working with local nonprofits to support previously unfunded projects and pushback from critics who accused Donaldson of exploiting vulnerable people for clickbait 'inspiration porn.' Campaigns have involved treating rheumatic heart disease in Nigeria and protecting endangered animals in Kenya. Other examples include building wells in countries across Africa and covering the cost of cataract surgery for 1,000 people. The call also signals Donaldson's continued philanthropic presence after comments suggesting he would get 'less hate' if he stepped away from philanthropy altogether. Responding to allegations that he uses philanthropy as a shield, Donaldson said he thinks 'it paints a negative spotlight on me.' 'People hate me more because I do good,' Donaldson said in a conversation uploaded last November on the YouTube channel oompaville. 'Maybe that's too crazy of a statement. I'm not trying to sound like a victim here or anything.' 'The truth is, I just find videos where I help people more fun than videos where I don't,' he added. Monday's announcement comes shortly after Amazon Prime Video renewed Beast Games for two more seasons. The reality competition series pitted 1,000 contestants against each other for a $5 million grand prize that doubled in the Feb. 13 finale. Forbes reported that the show broke the streaming service's record by totaling 50 million views in the 25 days after its premiere. MrBeast's latest fan event also follows reports that an April weekend experience billed as 'immersive' and 'unforgettable' had fallen short of attendees' expectations . ___ Associated Press coverage of philanthropy and nonprofits receives support through the AP's collaboration with The Conversation US, with funding from Lilly Endowment Inc.
