‘The Boys’ College Spinoff ‘Gen V’ Gets Bloody First-Look Teaser (Video)

College halls, bloodied walls and disembodied entrails are promised in Prime Video’s upcoming “Gen V,” the university-set spinoff to “The Boys,” which just got its first-look teaser. In the minute-long clip, which you can view above, audiences can take in all of the debauchery and gore akin to its predecessor, including guest appearances from Vought staples like manager Ashley Barrett (Colby Minifie) and A-Train (Jessie T. Usher).

The teaser premiered at Sao Paolo’s CCXP, the largest comic convention in the world. “Gen V” follows students at the first U.S. college exclusively for young adult superheroes (run by Vought International). The show, which is set to premiere in 2023, explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the school’s top ranking.

The teaser primarily follows Sinclair’s character, featuring the young supe’s visceral power of extending bloody entrails out of her hands (as well as muppet-like dolls that are filled with similar lifelike guts). In several clips, audiences get to glimpse the Vought-controlled propaganda-filled college, complete with a “School of Crimefighting,” a golden statue of the notably murderous Homelander (Antony Starr), vending machine adverts featuring A-Train and a vandalized door scrawled with the word “murderer.”
