5 Ways The Boys Season 4’s Ending Will Shape Gen V Season 2

The Boys & GEN V connection

By Dena Falken EsqPublished 5 months ago 2 min read

If there’s one thing The Boys never fails at, it’s chaos with purpose. Season 4 ended in peak apocalyptic fashion, and while everyone’s eyes are glued to the upcoming final season, let’s not forget that Gen V is directly tied into all of this madness. With its second season on the way, the fallout from The Boys is going to hit Godolkin University, and here are five ways the Season 4 finale could influence Gen V Season 2.

1. Homelander Has the Keys to America Now

By the end of The Boys Season 4, it becomes crystal clear that Homelander isn’t just the face of Vought anymore; he’s practically running America. His influence has extended beyond PR stunts and bogus rallies, and now his warped vision of leadership appears to be the law of the land, and Gen V Season 2 is confirmed to be unfolding within it.

Every student at Godolkin will be growing up under Homelander’s shadow, and that’s going to change how they’re taught, how they fight, and maybe even who they become.

2. Gen V Season 2 Will Show Us Life in a Supes-First World

The Boys’ Season 4 makes it clear that Homelander wants a society where Supes rule, and everyone else just adapts. Gen V Season 2 is the perfect playground to show this world in action and what happens when regular humans are no longer the priority. From campus policies at Godolkin to how new Supes are recruited, we’re going to see firsthand what it means when the world acts in favor of people with powers.

3. Cate and Sam Have Officially Crossed Over to Team Homelander

Remember Cate and Sam? Those two are no longer just troubled students. By the end of Gen V’s first season and The Boys’ fourth, they’ve essentially pledged themselves to Homelander’s cause. That means Godolkin has a direct pipeline into Homelander’s new army, which raises some terrifying possibilities. These aren’t just side characters anymore. They could become enforcers, recruiters, or even role models for the next generation of Supes, which makes them ten times more dangerous.

4. Zoe’s Path Through Red River Could Lead Straight Into Gen V Season 2

Victoria Neuman’s daughter Zoe didn’t get a ton of screen time in The Boys Season 4, but the seeds are clearly being planted. With her heading off to Red River after Victoria’s death, it feels almost inevitable that she’ll make her way into Gen V Season 2. Zoe has the kind of power and connection that could make her a huge player, and if she crosses paths with Godolkin’s students, things could spiral very quickly, especially since she’s tied directly to Neuman’s rise in politics.

5. The Supe Killing Virus Could Get Way More Dangerous

Season 4 of The Boys didn’t just mention the Supe Killing Virus; it elevated it into one of the most important weapons in the entire franchise. What started as a risky experiment in the basement of Godolkin University is now a world-altering factor that could shift the balance of power overnight. With Homelander pushing a Supes-first agenda, the virus becomes the ultimate countermeasure, especially since it’s in the hands of Butcher at the moment, who plans to use it without holding back, so there is a good chance that we might get to see some influence of it in Gen V Season 2.
