The first live-action spin-off of 'The Boys' has all the blood, gore, superpowers, and sex you'd expect.
Take all the copious amounts of superpowered mayhem, blood, guts, sex, politics, and satire of The Boys and inject it into a college setting. It seems like a natural fit, right? That's the formula that makes Gen V, the first live-action spinoff of the mega-successful Prime Video series, so diabolically promising.
Meanwhile, freshman Marie Moreau's blood-bending powers have only carved out a path of tragedy, rejection, and isolation for her. Marie finally gets the chance that she's been longing for upon receiving a full-ride scholarship to Godolkin, with the hope of turning her dream of becoming the first Black woman in The Seven into a reality.
Gen V seems like it's trying to bring in new fans as, while there are a handful of callbacks in each episode that will fly over any first-timer's head, the overall story stands on its own. Gen V makes an effort to give each of its youthful supes their own kind of backstories and insecurities. Marie's attempts to reconnect with her estranged sister and Emma's constant struggles with her body image are when the series is at its strongest.
