Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer “The Boys” are back in town — and this time on campus. In Amazon’s new drama “Gen V,” a spinoff of its popular R-rated superhero series, we follow a new crop of humans with superhuman abilities. The show is set at Godolkin University, a college run by supe corporation Vought, the company that runs the superhero industry and boasts The Seven, featured in “The Boys,” as its team.
At Godolkin, the admitted gifted and talented students have the option of taking the fame and fortune track, or going into the school of crime fighting. With a new class in session upon Friday’s launch, here’s a quick rundown of the characters — and cast members who play them — at the center of “Gen V.” “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” actor Jaz Sinclair plays Marie Moreau, the 18-year-old girl protagonist of this “Boys” story. Marie is a superhero with the ability to control and weaponize her own blood.
She is accepted into Vought’s Godolkin University as a freshman and dead set on becoming a member of The Seven upon graduation. Fellow “Sabrina” alum Chance Perdomo plays Andre Anderson, a junior at Godolkin University with the same magnetic powers as his famous father, the supe Polarity. He is the best friend of Luke Riordan a.k.a.
Godolkin’s Golden Boy. He is on track to take over the Polarity name once his dad retires. Lizze Broadway plays Emma Meyer, an incoming Godolkin University freshman who goes by the superhero name Little Cricket.
Emma’s power is the ability to shrink down to a super small size. She is assigned as Marie’s roommate at Godolkin. Shelley Conn plays Godolkin University dean Indira Shetty.

The Boys is one of Prime Video’s greatest series on its platform.So it makes sense that the Amazon corporate overlords would mine the original comic from Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson for some way to extend the brand.Gen V (★★★★☆), a show about America’s most prestigious superhero college, makes it clear through blood, insanity, and pitch-black humor that this is definitely a spin-off of The Boys.Following a dangerous awakening of her power to control blood, Marie (Jaz Sinclair) gets the opportunity to leave her orphanage for kids with powers for Goldolkin University, a major step forward in her goal to become the first black woman on The Seven.When she arrives, Marie meets her roommate, Emma (Lizze Broadway), who is also a famous YouTuber, Little Cricket, where she showcases her ability to shrink.Together, the two meet the school’s top ten students, including the superpowered Golden Boy (Patrick Schwarzenegger), his mind-controlling girlfriend Cate (Maddie Phillips), bi-gender Jordan (London Thor and Derek Luh), and Andre (Chance Perdomo), the magnetic son of a famous alumni.While Marie’s initial hopes seem fruitful, Gen V constantly reminds you that this is the world of The Boys, almost too much so. Every happy moment is bookended by an insane and usually violent moment of trauma with some zinger or depraved joke.
