Gen V is an American satirical superhero television series, developed by Craig Rosenberg, Evan Goldberg, and Eric Kripke, serving as a spin-off of The Boys by Kripke, and loosely based on The Boys comic book story arc We Gotta Go Now by Garth Ennis, Darick Robertson, and John Higgins. The series stars Jaz Sinclair, Chance Perdomo, Lizze Broadway, Maddie Phillips, London Thor, Derek Luh, Asa Germann, and Shelley Conn in main roles.

Gen V serves as the third television series in The Boys franchise and its first season is set before the fourth season of The Boys. The series premiered on Amazon Prime Video on September 29, 2023, and received mostly positive reviews from critics, who praised the cast performances.

In October 2023, Gen V was renewed for a second season.
