Exciting News About the Release Dates for ‘The Boys’ Season 5 and ‘Gen V’ Season 2

Amazon has found its own megafranchise with The Boys, as even it has other highly watched series like Rings of Power and Reacher, it has an actual universe with this one

The Boys just wrapped up its uneven fourth season with an unequivocally great finale, and now we have some updates.

Gen V, after the tragic death of Chance Perdomo, is being rewritten for season 2, but it has already been in production for two months or so. Given that season 1 started filming in May 2022 and arrived in September 2023, we might be able to estimate that we are now maybe 5-6+ months away from release, with the rewrite delay. That would land us at an early-ish 2025, a window Amazon says they will hit. Here’s MGM boss Vernon Sanders on the show:

“We love Gen V. Season 2 is turning out to be really strong. They’ve had their hardships obviously with the loss of Chance [Perdomo] but ultimately I think all fans of The Boys are really going to love that second season and stay tuned on whether there’s more,” he said in an interview with the Wrap “We are in production now. We’ve been in production for several weeks now, probably a month or two and I’m hoping that will be out next year.”

As for The Boys, season 5 is supposed to land in 2026 now, which would align with the two year cadence of that series. The idea is that there will be some sort of Boys show on every year, though The Boys is set to end with season 5, so what then?

More spin-offs, is the answer. Following the path of The Walking Dead, even if the main show dissolves, the franchise will live on in spin-offs the way we have Dead City, Daryl Dixon and The Ones who Live for TWD now. Here, we already have Gen V and now The Boys: Mexico coming together (please do not call it that) with producers and potential stars Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal involved.

Another pretty obvious place for a spin-off is within The Boys itself, taking a character or two, removing them from the main storying (I think we have to assume Homelander ends up dead at the end of all this) and throwing them into their own story. Probably not leads like Hughie or Butcher, but I’d watch a Kimiko spin-off, or a “where is Queen Maeve now?” show.
But for the next two years at least we have Boys content to consume, and I am going to bet Mexico in let’s say, 2028? After season 5 of The Boys and season 3 of Gen V, assuming it continues.
