The second season of\u00a0Gen V<\/a>\u00a0draws closer, and Prime Video came to San Diego Comic-Con with a new trailer underlining the stakes for Marie and the gang<\/a> when they return to Godolkin University.<\/p>\n

For her, going back to school after they escaped imprisonment is the last thing Marie wants. She\u2019s been fine living as a drifter on the run, but a save from Starlight (Erin Moriarty), who\u2019s also on the run after The Boys\u2019\u00a0previous season, comes with a catch: the ex-Seven member wants Marie to investigate and stop a project called \u201cOdessa\u201d the school\u2019s founder (Ethan Slater) was involved in. Whatever the project seems to involve Marie and her blood powers, which could evolve to the point she\u2019s stronger than Homelander. And if that weren\u2019t troubling enough, the new dean Cipher (Hamish Linklater) was at their prison, and may be trying to start Odessa up again on school grounds.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

During the panel, showrunner Michele Fazekas<\/a> teased\u00a0Gen V\u00a0and\u00a0The Boys\u00a0would \u201ctalk to each other\u201d in big ways now that Homelander\u2019s in control of America. \u201cNow, we get to see what that looks like for the country, at the school, and then what the resistance is going to look like.\u201d Along with Starlight, fellow\u00a0Boys\u00a0characters Black Noir II (Nathan Mitchell) and The Deep (Chace Crawford) will pop up.<\/p>\n

As for\u00a0The Boys\u00a0itself, a preview of its fifth and final season was also shown, wherein Homelander declares to a crowd the country will become a \u201csafer, god-fearing nation\u201d now that he\u2019s leading it. There were glimpses of a new character played by Supernatural\u00a0alum Jared Padalecki<\/a>, some blood and violence, and then a shot of long-suffering assistant Ashley\u2019s (Colby Minifie) smile morphing into a horrified look.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll have to wait to find out what she\u2019s done when\u00a0The Boys\u00a0returns in 2026. Meanwhile,\u00a0Gen V\u00a0season two premieres September 17.<\/p>\n
