The Boys is coming to an end in 2026, but is Gen V going with it?
“We have a plan for Gen V season 3, and we’re psyched about it, but we need enough viewers to watch season 2 to justify season 3,” the show’s creator, Eric Kripke, told TheWrap in October 2025. “Now’s the time that they’re paying attention to the numbers. So don’t watch even a year from now. Turn on Prime [Video] and watch it now. If enough people watch then we’ll get a season 3.”
Kripke noted that the “same applies” to Vought Rising, another spinoff series, which is set to premiere next year.
“We have plans for a season 2, if we can,” he continued. “They’ve been nothing but supportive, and they’re giving us our opportunities. But it’s a business and we also have to deliver. So hopefully the audience shows up.”
Gen V season 2 premiered in September 2025. The finale, which debuted the following month, set up the events of The Boys fifth and final season, which premiered in April 2026.

How Did Andre Die in ‘Gen V’?
Chance Perdomo played Andre in the first season of Gen V. The actor died in a March 2024 motorcycle accident.
“We were a week away from shooting when Chance passed away tragically. So we had to almost rethink everything, and in just a matter of weeks,” showrunner Eric Kripke told Entertainment Weekly in May 2024. “But what I tell people when they say ‘Wow, that’s really crazy or difficult’ [is] that pales in comparison to what his friends and loved ones are going through. It’s the least we could do.”
Gen V season 2 reveals that Perdomo’s character, Andre, died from a stroke while using his powers in an attempt to escape the Elmira rehabilitation center.
Will There Be Another Season of ‘Gen V’?
Prime Video has yet to confirm that there will be a third season of Gen V.
