The wait is over for Gen V fans as the show’s second season trailer has finally dropped. The intense trailer is packed with cameos from THE BOYS characters and a major reveal about Godolkin University’s dark past. Showrunner Michele Fazekas teased the bigger picture of the franchise, explaining how Season 4 of THE BOYS sets up Season 2 of Gen V.
Why We’re Excited About Gen V Trailer
As the trailer kicks off, we see a glimpse of what life is like in America under Homelander’s rule. The university is now a hotbed of activity, with Dean Cipher, played by Hamish Linklater, preaching a curriculum that promises to make students more powerful than ever. Cate and Sam are celebrated heroes, while Marie, Jordan, and Emma reluctantly return to college, burdened by months of trauma and loss.
But parties and classes are hard to care about with war brewing between Humans and Supes, both on and off campus. The gang learns of a secret program that goes back to the founding of Godolkin University that may have larger implications than they realize. And, somehow, Marie is a part of it.
Final Thoughts
New faces include Dean Cipher, a man whose friendly vibe probably hides something sinister. Returning cast members include Lizze Broadway as Emma, Maddie Phillips as Cate, Asa Germann as Sam, and Sean Patrick Thomas as Polarity.
Gen V Season 2 kicks off with a three-episode premiere on September 17, followed by weekly drops every Wednesday.
