Gen V is set in Godolkin University, America’s only college exclusively for young-adult superheroes, run by Vought International. The series is described as an irreverent, R-rated show that explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the best contracts in the best cities. The spinoff is inspired by the G-Men, a parody of the X-Men from The Boys comic book series created by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson.
While the series has a wide fanbase, many fans were left unimpressed with the new poster. Some netizens ridiculed the concept, while others were just excited about the upcoming show. One Twitter user asked, “Is the poster supposed to be this bad?” The post quickly went viral, with many fans expressing their disappointment with the poster.
Despite the mixed reactions to the new poster, the show’s producers are confident that Gen V will be a hit. The series is executive produced by showrunners Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters, along with a team of producers that includes Eric Kripke, Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, Neal H. Moritz, Ori Marmur, Pavun Shetty, Ken Levin, Jason Netter, Garth Ennis, Darick Robertson, Craig Rosenberg, Zak Schwartz, Erica Rosbe, Michaela Starr, and Brant Engelstein.
