Set in the devilish world of The Boys, Gen V expands the universe to Godolkin University, the prestigious superhero university where students are trained to become the next generation of heroes - preferably with lucrative sponsorship deals. You know what happens when superheroes turn bad, but not all superheroes start out corrupt.
Besides the typical college chaos of finding yourself and partying, these kids are faced with explosive situations...literally. As the students compete for popularity and good grades, it's clear that the stakes are much higher when superpowers are involved.
The cast also includes Jaz Sinclair, Lizze Broadway, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Asa Germann and Shelley Conn.
