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.

'The Boys' Colby Minifie on Series Finale: ‘Extremely Satisfying'
If you weren't excited enough about how one of television's most chaos-loaded shows opts to bid farewell in its series finale, this should do the trick. Among the characters in the hit show The Boys, who dislikes (anti) superhero Homelander the most outside of the core group of Butcher, Hughie, Annie and the gang, Ashley, played by Colby Minifie, is high up on the list. Ashley has been bullied and pushed around by Homelander, among others, in Vought since Season 1, so when Minifie spoke about how the season finale plays out, it turned a few heads. This is mainly because she summed it up in a way that could tease what many fans of The Boys are hoping to see—the end of Homelander's reign. During an interview with ScreenRant, two words effectively summed up Minifie's thoughts after learning how the series finale plays out. "Extremely satisfying." "I just read the finale last night. It's an extremely satisfying finale," Minifie said. "That's what I will say. It's extremely satisfying. I was getting emotional reading it." Considering Ashley took Compound V at the end of Season 4, the same thing that has sent Butcher into a tailspin, but also allowed him to go toe-to-toe with Homelander and other superheroes, it makes the comments even more interesting. Fans will have to continue speculating for a good bit longer before we finally receive an answer on how the creators will end the series, as the expected premiere for Season 5 is in 2026. However, if the first four seasons are any indication, the last hurrah won't disappoint.'The Boys' Colby Minifie on Series Finale: 'Extremely Satisfying' first appeared on Men's Journal on May 26, 2025

'The Boys' Antony Starr on Homelander: ‘This Guy Is Not the Hero'
Since Season 1 of The Boys, Antony Starr's character, Homelander, has captivated audiences with his brutal, no-nonsense approach. He's gone toe-to-toe with anyone who gets in his way, even if it's a member of his own team. Homelander is the true definition of a "villain" in every sense, yet some fans have shown admiration of sorts for Starr's character. Ahead of the fifth and final season of the popular series, Starr spoke about the character's intriguing following during an interview with Entertainment Weekly. The man who portrays Homelander specifically wanted to throw cold water on any idea that the most powerful (anti) superhero in the show is a true "hero" in any fashion. "This guy is not the hero of any story," Starr said. "They [some fans on social media] were really glorifying him, they loved him. Which is surreal," he continues. Starr told Entertainment Weekly that he didn't expect viewers to ever side with Homelander. "What I didn't expect was that people would be so conflicted around it and, you know, finding themselves finding empathy for this monster," he reflects. The comments are eye-opening, but also show how incredibly well Starr has played the character. He and The Boys creator Eric Kripke didn't just create a superhero villain; they created an entire backstory about a person filled with unparalleled emotions. The big question looming in fans' minds now is how things will end for Homelander and the other cast members of The Boys. Season 5 is bound to provide fireworks, but it also has the potential to throw even more curveballs than fans have become accustomed to seeing over the first four seasons.'The Boys' Antony Starr on Homelander: 'This Guy Is Not the Hero' first appeared on Men's Journal on May 29, 2025

Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors 'The Boys' is one of the most popular and critically-acclaimed superhero series of all time, earning numerous accolades and generating multiple spinoffs, including 'Gen V,' 'The Boys Presents: Diabolical,' and even more on the way. Sophomore year incoming. Syllabus arrives this Saturday at CCXP Mexico! — GEN V (@genv) May 27, 2025 One of the standout performances of the franchise is Anthony Starr as Homelander, a sadistic version of Superman that leads the superhero group The Seven. More Entertainment: 'Black Panther' Game Canceled and Studio Shockingly Shut Down by EA Homelander has committed numerous atrocities and heinous acts throughout 'The Boys.' Despite this, some fans still gravitate toward the character as a hero. And Starr is having none of it. Antony Starr as Homelander in Gen V Season 1 Antony Starr as Homelander in Gen V Season 1 Amazon Studios During the Awardist Drama Actors Roundtable held by Entertainment Weekly, Starr revealed that he and other members of 'The Boys' had to "knock down" online fans who were glorifying Homelander. "We had a bunch of guys that, we all kind of knocked them down a little bit on social media," Starr said. "'This guy is not the hero of any story.' They were really glorifying it. They loved him, which is surreal. What I didn't expect was that people would be so conflicted around it and finding themselves feeling empathy for this monster." Despite this, Starr does his best to prevent Homelander from coming across as "a mustache-twirling villain" and make him more three-dimensional. "It had to be a real person built from the ground up," Starr said. "The other thing is, I really don't like using the word 'psychopath.' I think it's such a reductive term."

And producer/writer Eric Kripke couldn't be happier. "It's just such a gift to know, as a filmmaker anyway, when your story's ending because you know when to just blow the doors off it and completely change the world of the show," Kripke said. "You don't have to maintain it because you've got six more seasons. You've got to squeeze out of it that it's time to bring on the endgame. So, that's what that finale was built to do." 'The Boys' Season 5 is set to premiere on Amazon in 2026.
