GEN V RENEWED
Prime Video has announced that it has ordered a second season of the series Gen V, which comes from the world of The Boys.
Gen V, from Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television, began its eight-episode freshman season on Friday, Sept. 29, and will conclude with an epic season finale on Friday, Nov. 3. The series streams exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries.
"Expanding the universe of The Boys with a series as bold as Gen V has been an incredible journey for us and our wonderful partners at Sony. From our first conversation with showrunners Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters, along with Eric Kripke, Evan Goldberg, and Seth Rogen, we knew Gen V would push the boundaries. Their unapologetic approach is exactly what audiences love, and it has helped Gen V become the No. 1 series on Prime Video in over 130 countries," said Vernon Sanders, head of television, Amazon MGM Studios. "Gen V is Prime Video's most acquisitive new original series of 2023, and we're excited that our incredible cast and crew are going to continue telling brave and bold stories from Gen V to our customers."
"We couldn't be happier to make a second season of Gen V. These are characters and stories we've grown to love, and we are thrilled to know people feel the same! The writers are already working on the new seasom, îsophomore year is gonna be wild, with all the twists, heart, satire, and exploding genitalia you've come to expect from the show." said showrunner Michele Fazekas and executive producer Eric Kripke in a join statement.
"We are so proud that our top-ranked freshman is getting a second season! Thank you to the amazing producers, cast, and crew, for bringing Gen V to life, and our Prime Video teammates, for the incredible support and partnership. We're thrilled we can all continue on this insane journey together in Season Two," said Katherine Pope, president of Sony Pictures Television Studios.
Set in the diabolical world of The Boys, Gen V expands the universe to Godolkin University, the prestigious superhero-only college where students train to be the next generation of heroes, preferably with lucrative endorsements. You know what happens when supes go bad, but not all superheroes start out corrupt. Beyond the typical college chaos of finding oneself and partying, these kids are facing explosive situations -- literally. As the students vie for popularity and good grades, it's clear that the stakes are much higher when super powers are involved. When the group of young supes discover that something bigger and sinister is going on at school, they're put to the test: Will they be the heroes or the villains of their stories?
The Season One cast includes Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, Lizze Broadway, Shelley Conn, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sean Patrick Thomas, and Marco Pigossi. Gen V also features guest stars Clancy Brown and Jason Ritter, as well as appearances from Jessie T. Usher, Colby Minifie, Claudia Doumit, and P.J. Byrne, reprising their roles from The Boys. Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters serve as showrunners and executive producers. Eric Kripke, Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, Neal H. Moritz, Ori Marmur, Pavun Shetty, Ken Levin, Jason Netter, Garth Ennis, Darick Robertson, Craig Rosenberg, Nelson Cragg, Zak Schwartz, Erica Rosbe, and Michaela Starr also serve as executive producers. Serving as co-executive producers are Brant Englestein, Sarah Carbiener, Lisa Kussner, Gabriel Garcia, Aisha Porter-Christie, Judalina Neira, and Loreli Alanes. The series is produced by Sony Pictures Television and Amazon Studios, in association with Kripke Enterprises, Point Grey Pictures, and Original Film.

TITAN'S REBEL MOON: Titan Comics has announced a Jan. 10 launch for Rebel Moon: House of the Bloodaxe.
Bloodaxe is a prequel comic series for Rebel Moon, a movie that premieres on Netflx with part one on Dec 22 from director Zach Snyder.
The four-part comic series, based on a story by Snyder, is written by Mags Visaggio, with art by Clark Bint and colors from Francesco Segala. The first issue features an array of covers, including by Stanley "Artgerm" Lau and Rafael Albuquerque.
Set five years before the events depicted in Rebel Moon -- Part One: A Child of Fire, the comic provides backstory for the characters of Devra and Darrian Bloodaxe, leaders of a band of outlaw revolutionaries and their formidable family's history. As war is looming on the horizon on the planet Shasu, the leader of the Bloodaxe family is conflicted between living up to his father's domineering legacy and maintaining the peace. It is up to him to settle the conflicts within himself, and his family, before the entire planet erupts in war.
"I'm excited to collaborate with Mags to explore the rich and complex backstory of the Bloodaxe siblings," Snyder said “In Rebel Moon: House of the Bloodaxe, fans will get to discover their motivation, as well as the genesis of the rebellion."
