The Seann William Scott action comedy Bad Man was filmed in the state of Alabama during December of 2023 and January of 2024, so it will be premiering at the Sidewalk Film Festival in Birmingham, Alabama on August 24th – but those of us who aren’t able to make it to Sidewalk won’t have to wait long to see the movie. Vertical is planning to give the film a theatrical release in North America sometime in the fall, and Vertigo Releasing will be giving it a digital release in the UK on September 15th. Bad Man will be available to watch through Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video, and Sky Store on that date – and in anticipation of that release, a trailer has dropped online. You can check it out in the embed above.

"Our town, our rules. Plenty of room on Main Street for more dead city boys." Vertigo Releasing in the UK has unveiled an official trailer for another funky action comedy movie titled Bad Man, which will be sent direct-to-vod to watch at home in the UK this September. No US release is set yet - I'm sure someone will try to put this in theaters but will anyone go? Set in Colt Lake, Tennessee, Sam Evans tries to tackle a meth epidemic and working as a deputy. He is sidelined on arrival of Bobby Gaines an undercover agent for the state's Special Narcotics Task Force. Despite Evans' local ties, Gaines is instantly hailed as hero by all the other locals. But suspicions arise on Gaines which unravels a complex narrative – what is he really up to in this town? Something is going down, and we're all ready to find out.

Prime Video‘s Gen V Season 2 is set to premiere on September 17, 2025, and all eyes are on Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair). Her power appears to be evolving into something far more dangerous. Based on the season 2 trailer, Marie’s new abilities could be telekinetic-like, blood manipulation, and non-contact offensive force. She may now manipulate blood within others as well.

The trailer shows Marie levitating objects and throwing people, hinting at a possible telekinetic upgrade. These scenes suggest she can now manipulate blood pressure similar to The Boys‘ Victoria Neuman, the head-popping supe. In the Season 1 finale, she halted a fatal injury to Cate and neutralized armed guards without touching them.

It can also be speculated that Marie may have adapted powers related to Andre Anderson. His telekinetic abilities resemble what Marie is now showing.

The Gen V Season 2 cast lineup has been making headlines ever since the trailer was revealed at the San Diego Comic-Con in July. But we cannot stop thinking about one notable character from Season 1: Maverick’s girlfriend, Sloane. In the twisted, hormones and superpower-fueled world of Godolkin University, Maverick’s alpaca girlfriend stood out to audiences.

While her existence sounds like a joke ripped from The Boys’ playbook, the spin-off treats it surprisingly seriously, which has generated significant buzz around her powers and abilities. As Gen V gears up for a second season, let’s dissect all the abilities Maverick’s bizarre partner possesses.

Maverick’s Shape-Shifting Alpaca Girlfriend in Gen V

One of Gen V Season 1’s most bizarre pairings included the invisible son of Translucent, Maverick, and an alpaca named Sloane. Maverick’s girlfriend was first introduced to audiences in Season 1 Episode 5, titled “Welcome to the Monster...

Amazon Prime Video has dropped the official trailer for Gen V Season 2—first revealed at San Diego Comic‑Con (Sdcc) 2025—alongside confirmation that the series will premiere on September 17, 2025, releasing the first three episodes immediately, with the rest following weekly through October 22.

A New Era at Godolkin University

The trailer picks up after Season 1’s explosive finale: Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair), Emma Meyer (Lizze Broadway), Jordan Li (London Thor & Derek Luh), and others awaken imprisoned in Elmira Adult Rehabilitation Center. They’re mysteriously returned to a transformed Godolkin University, now ruled by Dean Cipher (Hamish Linklater), who has implemented a Hunger Games–style militarization of supes, complete with gladiatorial training and suppression of powers via colored collars.

Honoring a Legacy: Andre’s Absence Addressed

The death of actor Chance Perdomo in March 2024 led producers to decide against recasting his character, Andre Anderson. The trailer directly addresses Andre’s absence through his father,...

Gen V showrunner Michele Fazekas has addressed how season 2 of The Boys spinoff series will handle the death of a major actor who was part of season 1. Gen V season 2 sees the core cast of the spinoff return to Godolkin, where new threats abound. However, Chance Perdomo's Andre will not return after the actor's death in 2024.

Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Fazekas explained the importance of honoring Perdomo while producing Gen V season 2. She explained how his presence hovers over "the entire season," with a story that does justice to his character and honors the contribution he made to the series. Check out what Fazekas had to say below:

Just watching the show and watching even just the trailer for it...we did it so long ago and I remember being in the writer's room and talking about how important it was to honor him. And then when you watch the show,...

One of Gen V's showrunners recently opened up about how Season 2 plans to honor the late Chance Perdomo. The actor died in 2024 at the age of 27 after a motorcycle accident.

Speaking withEntertainment Weekly at San Diego Comic-Con, Michele Fazekas talked about Perdomo's influence on the upcoming season of Amazon's hit The Boys spinoff. The show did not recast his part as Andre Anderson, instead choosing to adjust its storylines in order to pay tribute to Perdomo. "Just watching the show and watching even just the trailer for it...we did it so long ago and I remember being in the writer's room and talking about how important it was to honor him," Fazekas shared.

The early decision to make sure Perdomo's legacy was honored in Gen V impacted the entirety of the season. "And then when you watch the show, he exists throughout the entire season. It was,...

The second season of Prime Video's Gen V is almost here, and as well as delivering big on the gross-out superhero action, the series also has some incredibly big boots to fill; those of the late actor Chance Perdomo. But the series isn't filling the proverbial boots. Instead, following the actor's untimely passing in 2024, showrunner Michele Fazekas revealed that his part won't be recast in the second season. Instead, Gen V has elected to write Perdomo's death into the series. As The Boys fans build up to the release of Gen V Season 2 on September 17, many are wondering exactly how the show will honor the memory of Perdomo.

Michele Fazekas spoke to Entertainment Weekly at San Diego Comic-Con, and the Gen V showrunner addressed how Season 2 incorporated Perdomo's unexpected death. "[That was] probably the No. 1 thing we wanted to do," Fazekas said of honoring the late actor. "Just watching the show...

The second season of Gen V is all about leveling up.

Fans of The Boys universe packed Ballroom 20 on Friday as Prime Video hosted the first-ever San Diego Comic-Con panel for Gen V. Showrunner Michele Fazekas and cast members Jaz Sinclair (Marie Moreau), Maddie Phillips (Cate Dunlap), London Thor (female Jordan Li), Derek Luh (male Jordan Li), and Hamish Linklater (Dean Cipher) answered questions from moderator and franchise star P.J. Byrne, who stayed in character the entire time as his narcissistic director, Adam Bourke.

Here are the five biggest takeaways we learned about Gen V Season 2 at Comic-Con.

The Boys Cameos

The official trailer for the second season of the spin-off series was screened for the crowd, with Dean Cipher's ominous quote, "You can all level up under the right amount of pressure," being of key interest for fans. The two-minute video also teased three shocking The Boys cameos from...

Gen V showrunner Michele Fazekas opened up about how the second season of the college-set superhero series would honor late cast member Chance Perdomo.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly at San Diego Comic-Con, the producer explained how paying tribute to Perdomo and his character Andre Anderson was top of mind going into the sophomore installment of The Boys spinoff.

“[That was] probably the No. 1 thing we wanted to do,” Fazekas said of commemorating the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina alum. “Just watching the show and watching even just the trailer for it … we did it so long ago and I remember being in the writer’s room and talking about how important it was to honor him. And then when you watch the show, he exists throughout the entire season. It was, in many ways, about Andre and about Chance. And, yeah, I’m very proud of that actually.”

Perdomo died as a result...

Most of the original cast is back, including Jaz Sinclair, Lizze Broadway, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, and Asa Germann. Newcomer Hamish Linklater joins as Dean Cipher.

A new trailer for the second season of Gen V debuted during San Diego Comic-Con this evening, and has now been released online.

The teaser begins with Jaz Sinclair as blood-manipulating Marie Moreau, tangling with ferocious Supe Dogknott, who gets the better of her until a familiar face comes to the rescue. Erin Moriarty is set to reprise her role as Starlight, and she won't be the only character from The Boys to make an appearance during season 2.

In addition, Wicked star Ethan Slater is joining the cast as Thomas Godolkin, the founder of the school.

In the season 1 finale, Marie and some of her classmates were rounded up by Homelander and his forces, and we saw the same thing happen to Hughie, Frenchie, Mm and Kimiko in the season 4 finale of The Boys. It seems interned Supes are going to form some kind of resistance to fight back against...

The official Gen V season 2 trailer has debuted, and it reveals a major character from The Boys recruiting Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair). Gen V season 1 ended with Marie and her friends captured by Vought, although the season 2 teaser trailer previously showed that Marie, Emma Meyer (Lizze Broadway), and Jordan Li (London Thor and Derek Luh) are back at Godolkin University.

Due to the real-life tragedy of Chance Perdomo's death, his character, Andre Anderson, Gen V season 2 was rewritten with Andre having passed away between seasons. His father, Polarity (Sean Patrick Thomas), is determined to learn the truth about what happened to his son.

At Gen V season 2's San Diego Comic-Con panel, where ScreenRant was in attendance, Prime Video debuted the official trailer, which shows The Boys' Annie January/Starlight (Erin Moriarty) recruiting Marie. After saving Marie from another supe, Annie explains that she needs Marie to return to...

A familiar face is welcoming Gen V back to Prime Video for its long-awaited second season, premiering on Wednesday, Sept. 17 with the first three episodes.

As just revealed at San Diego Comic-Con, the trailer for Season 2 kicks off with Starlight (The Boys’ Erin Moriarty) turning to Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair) for help. Vought is resuming a mysterious — and presumably dangerous — research program known as “Project Odessa,” and she needs Marie to stop it. This plan requires Marie to return to Godolkin University, which is now under the troubling control of Dean Cipher (Season 2 newcomer Hamish Linklater).

Gen V is officially back, and it looks gnarlier than ever before. As revealed in the official trailer for Season 2, the popular The Boys spin-off returns to Prime Video later this September. The last teaser for the hit superhero satire confirmed that the main group of students will return to Godolkin University after being imprisoned and framed by Vought.

During the San Diego Comic-Con panel, Gen V revealed the all-new trailer for the upcoming second season. It's been nearly two years since the first season premiered in 2023, but the satirical superhero drama doesn't skip a beat in the action-packed footage. As teased inThe Boys Season 4, Supes are being pitted against humans, but it appears Marie (Jaz Sinclair) and the rest of her friends are keen on fighting the good fight. The show is set to return on Prime Video starting September 12. You can check out the official trailer below:

Sophomore year is almost in session for “Gen V,” the spinoff of Prime Video’s hit superhero series “The Boys,” and there are some new and familiar faces arriving at Godolkin University.

“Wicked” star Ethan Slater is joining the “Gen V” Season 2 cast as Thomas Godolkin, the founder of the superhero school. Several “The Boys” alumni, like Erin Moriarty’s Starlight, Chace Crawford’s the Deep and Nathan Mitchell’s Black Noir also appear in the upcoming season. The casting was revealed, along with a new trailer, at San Diego Comic Con on Friday.

“Gen V” stars Jaz Sinclair, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Hamish Linklater and showrunner Michele Fazekas were featured in the “Gen V” panel.

San Diego Comic-Con is a time for celebrating fandom — a time of frenzied excitement that much of the cast of Prime Video’s “Gen V” are experiencing for the first time.

“You guys are gonna have the best day of your life,” Hamish Linklater told his “Gen V” co-stars Jaz Sinclair, Maddie Phillips, London Thor and Derek Luh during their interview at the Comic Con Variety Studio presented by Google TV before their big panel at the San Diego Convention Center on Friday night.

But the moment is also a bit bittersweet for the cast of the bloody college-set spinoff of the superhero series “The Boys,” as Season 2 pays tribute to the late Chance Perdomo, who was a central player on the show. Perdomo died in a motorcycle accident in March 2024, just before Season 2 started production. So, the show’s creative team revised the plot to honor the 27-year-old actor and his superhero character,...

Back in 2007, no one could have guessed that The Boys would not only become a superhero TV show but also one of the best. Each season has provided an emotional rollercoaster by using real-life events mixed in with a superpowered twist. Sadly, the end of the show’s journey is closer than you realize, as Deadline reports that the final season has wrapped up.

"It’s bittersweet, but my primary feeling is gratitude. We have the best cast, the best crew, the most fun story to write, and something that is impossible to predict: the right timing. You wait your whole career to have maybe two of those things, if you’re lucky. We got all of them," creator Eric Kripke wrote in an Instagram post commemorating the conclusion of filming.

Ahead of “Gen V’s” second season, Jaz Sinclair confirms: fans will get to see a new side of Marie Moreau.

“Thinking about Marie in Season 1 versus Marie in Season 2, she does change. She does evolve. We’ll get more moments of lightness with her, for sure, but the circumstances are still intense,” she reveals at Monte-Carlo Television Festival.

“I don’t know if ‘happy’ is the right word, but in Season 1, Marie didn’t quite know how to be normal. She didn’t know how to be a teenager, because her experience was so extreme. Over the course of that season, and now in Season 2, she knows how to have friends, how to feel love – and how to tell jokes.”

Expanding on the world of The Boys, Gen V season 2 will bring us more exciting fight scenes and an attempt to bring down Vought International. At the same time, it needs to pay tribute to one of the season 1 main cast members.

The teaser trailer for Gen V season 2 is now out, and it brings up a lot of questions. It looks like Marie and her friends are out of the Vought prison they were left in at the end of the first season. Reading between the lines and looking at how they’re ready to fight, nothing has changed for them, though. They’re just a little bit smarter at how they’re going to play this game this time.

The Boys Spinoff Gen V Season 2 Update ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Get ready, superhero fans! On June 1, 2025, Prime Video’s YouTube channel dropped the first teaser trailer for Gen V Season 2. That’s right, your favorite college-set The Boys spinoff is back and gearing up to pack another punch. The American satirical show first burst onto the scene in September 2023. It quickly scored a renewal thanks to its immense success. But filming hit a rough patch with the heartbreaking loss of Chance Perdomo, who played Andre Anderson. The showrunners aren’t shying away from this tragedy either.

The new trailer tackles it head-on. Andre’s dad, Polarity (Sean Patrick Thomas), is on a mission to uncover what really happened after his son vanished. Executive producer Eric Kripke told TV Line, “We’re not trying to replace him because we can’t. We’re playing the character’s death on the show.

Amazon has set 17 September 2025 for the return of Gen V, dropping the first three episodes on Prime Video in more than 240 territories and then rolling out weekly instalments until the finale on 22 October. The date was revealed during a Ccxp Mexico panel whose sizzle reel positioned the college-based Boys spin-off alongside marquee titles such as Fallout and The Rings of Power. A teaser posted moments later confirmed the split-launch structure and showed Godolkin University under new dean “Cipher,” portrayed by Hamish Linklater.

Seven principal cast members are back, including Jaz Sinclair, Lizze Broadway, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann and Sean Patrick Thomas, according to official first-look photos shared in March. Collider adds that Patrick Schwarzenegger’s Golden Boy will appear only in flashbacks, while no actor will step into the shoes of Andre Anderson following Chance Perdomo’s death. Show-runner Michele Fazekas told reporters the writers “re-charted...

The Boys has grown into its own – and beyond, with spin-offs like Gen V successfully expanding the universe that began with the original comic book series by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. The first season of Gen V was quite well-received upon release, but it’s been about a year and a half since season two was confirmed. So, yes, we are ready to re-enroll.

The first three episodes of Season 2 will debut September 17, with additional episodes dropping weekly on Wednesdays through the season finale on October 22.

Here’s the official synopsis: “As the rest of America adjusts to Homelander’s iron fist, back at Godolkin University, the mysterious new Dean preaches 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.

The first trailer for Gen V season two is here! Amazon Prime Video’s original series is a spin off of the ever gross and ever popular series The Boys which itself is based on a comic series of the same name. Gen V is just as bloody and disgusting as the show it originated from, and the trailer shows off the signature blood and gore.

Watch it below!

It is very clear from the trailer that the events of season four of The Boys will play into season two of Gen V. In the trailer, characters from The Boys are present including Valorie Curry as Firecracker and Antony Starr as Homelander. A poster of Homelander can be seen in a particular shot in the trailer that has the word ‘Resist’ spray painted over it.

Amazon’s official synopsis for season two reads, “As the rest of America adjusts to Homelander’s iron fist,...

The first teaser trailer has been released for the upcoming second season of Gen V, the hit spinoff of Prime Video's superhero series The Boys. Also announced is the show's return date, as it's been revealed that the series is coming back to Prime Video on Sept. 17, 2025.

The first season of Gen V premiered on Prime Video back in Sept. 2023, and because of its success, it was given a quick renewal. There was a delay in filming due to the tragic passing of Chance Perdomo, who portrayed Andre Anderson in the first season. In the new trailer released by Amazon on May 31, it addresses how the show will move forward in the wake of Perdomo's death, showcasing Andre's father, Polarity (Sean Patrick Thomas) looking for answers about what "really happened" after the disappearance of his son. The trailer for Season 2 can be watched below.

"First, it’s just so unbelievably tragic,...

The Boys is coming to an end with its fifth season, but before that we will be returning to Godolkin University to see how the world of young Supes is going in Gen V Season 2. Judging by the newly released teaser...things are going to get bloody messy again.

Back in March, creator Eric Kripke revealed that the final touches were being put to the first trailer, and fans have been patiently waiting for its arrival. While all eyes were on Netflix's Tudum event, Prime Video decided to drop the new trailer anyway. You can check it out for yourself below.

The kids are alright. Well. Kind of. Today at the Ccxp Mexico celebrations, Prime Video dropped the debut trailer for the second season of Gen V — a moment that fans have been waiting for since the first season came to an end back in 2023. Even better than that, though, is the announcement that Season 2 will finally arrive on Wednesday, September 17, which certainly stays on par with the school's in-session theme of the show.

In the quick glimpse that we see, Eric Kripke and his team have already upped the ante, and are going for more blood, guts, and drama than before. With the universe’s flagship series, The Boys, officially coming to an end following its upcoming fifth season, all eyes are on Gen V to serve as the future of the franchise. And, if today’s teaser is any clue, it certainly won’t disappoint. Many returning faces are...

The Gen V season 2 release date and first trailer have been revealed. The Boys spinoff takes place at Godolkin University, where supes train in the hopes of one day working for Vought and joining the elite team known as the Seven. Gen V season 1 ended with Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair), Andre Anderson (Chance Perdomo), Emma Meyer (Lizzie Broadway), and Jordan Li (London Thor and Derek Luh) imprisoned in a mysterious facility. Season 2 underwent rewrites after Perdomo passed away in March 2024.

As shared by Prime Video at their Ccxp México panel, the trailer reveals that Gen V season 2 will debut on September 17. Three episodes will be released on the premiere date, followed by weekly episode drops leading up to the season 2 finale on October 22.

Prime Video’s college-based spinoff of “The Boys” returns Sept. 17 with the premiere of the first three episodes, available in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. New episodes will follow weekly with the second season finale airing Wednesday, October 22.

Season 2 picks up where Season 4 of “The Boys” left off — with Homelander (Antony Starr) firmly established as America’s brutal new fascist dictator and pretty much everyone who opposes him, with the sole exception of Starlight (Erin Moriarty), shoved into gulags at best.

It looks like we might get a first look at some footage from the second season of Gen V this Saturday at Ccxp Mexico, as Prime Video has released the first official key art spotlighting Jaz Sinclair as blood-manipulating Supe, Marie Moreau.

In the season 1 finale, Marie and some of her classmates were rounded up by Homelander and his forces, and we saw the same thing happen to Hughie, Frenchie, Mm and Kimiko in the season 4 finale of The Boys. It seems interned Supes are going to form some kind of resistance to fight back against the leader of The Seven (best of luck).

Last year, we got the tragic news that 27-year-old Gen V star Chance Perdomo had passed away after a motorcycle accident. Perdomo had been a major part of The Boys spin-off series, and his character, Andre Anderson, was going to feature heavily in the second season.

The Boys has explored Homelander’s complex psyche in its four seasons, especially through his connection with his son, Ryan. Homelander is despicable, but his actions toward his son particularly highlight his darker side, which is aggravated by his own daddy issues and upbringing.

On the other hand, the spin-off series Gen V included an equally complex father figure in Polarity. The first season explored the borderline toxic relationship between Polarity and his son, Andre. Despite the misguided nature of Polairty’s concern, he is still a much better father than Homelander, and here is why.

Gen V season 1 proved Polarity is a better dad than Homelander

The Boys introduced viewers to Homelander (Antony Starr), a near-maniacal superhero who was grown in a lab. As a result, he struggles with his identity, especially when he discovers he has a superpowered son, Ryan. However, Homelander ends up projecting his insecurities on Ryan,...

While we all know Sophie Nyweide for lighting up the screen as a child star in Noah, very few know about the late actress’ battle behind the scenes. Following her tragic demise at 24, now that new reports are surfacing daily, we are starting to learn how Nyweide was suffering from addiction while helping others overcome their battles.

According to a close friend of Sophie Nyweide, the actress had a heart as big as her talent—always helping others, always listening, always kind. But sometimes, the kindest souls carry the heaviest pain. Perhaps that’s what happened to the former child star, who left us too soon, on April 14, after her lifeless body was found on a riverbank.

Gen V is the first spin off show from Amazon Prime's very successful superhero show The Boys, a show that goes into what superheroes would be like if they were pretty much all bad people. Gen V's first season shows viewers what going to college as a superhero is like and, par for the course for anything related to The Boys, it's very good and frequently very gross.

After the third season of The Boys ended, we were treated to the first spin-off series, Gen V. The series focused on younger Supes and eventually tied into the main storyline, which is why it was received well by the fans in general.

A second season was announced and we knew, as has been confirmed, that it would be produced before the final season of The Boys. And while Chance Perdomo’s tragedy caused some problems, the production continued.

Eric Kripke, who is overseeing the whole franchise at Amazon, recently shared a major update on the show’s progress and we’d like to share it with you.

The 2025 Oscars ignited controversy for leaving out actors such as Michelle Trachtenberg, Tony Todd and Olivia Hussey. “Beverly Hills, 90210” star Shannen Doherty was also omitted, which her co-star Jennie Garth called “messed up” when asked by TMZ to give her thoughts on the snub (via People). Garth added that “maybe” the Academy should apologize to Doherty’s family for the exclusion.

Garth and Doherty became teen icons together as stars of “Beverly Hills, 90210.” They were both series regulars for four seasons. Doherty exited the series before Season 5. Garth continued for all 10 seasons. They later reunited as their characters, Kelly Taylor and Brenda Walsh, for appearances on The CW’s “90210” reboot.

Doherty died in July 2024 after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. In June 2023, she said she had been receiving radiation for cancer that had spread to her brain. She became a popular podcast host in the years...

The Academy Awards ceremony took place on Sunday night, and as with every year, the show featured an In Memoriam segment honoring some of the movie stars and creatives who've passed away since last year's show. Some keys were left out, with fans of horror legend Tony Todd disappointed not to see the actor included after his passing in November.

Per TMZ, Todd's family has since weighed in on the Candyman star's absence from the In Memoriam segment. The actor's widow, Fatima, said she was left feeling "angry" after the snub. She reportedly believes that there's a "racial element" that resulted in the omission, with the report noting that Fatima feels "people of color and women are often ignored as much as possible" with the Academy's In Memoriam tributes.
