Word is out that Amazon's Prime Video has cancelled Gen V after two seasons. The news comes six months after the superhero drama wrapped its sophomore run. Parent series 'The Boys' is currently in its final season and will be ending next month. Fans of the franchise still have another entry to look forward to, though, as prequel series 'Vought Rising' is on track to launch in 2027.

"While we wish we could keep the party going another season at Godolkin, we're committed to continuing the Gen V characters' stories in The Boys season five and other VCU projects on the horizon. You'll see them again," said executive producers Eric Kripke and Evan Goldberg in a joint statement.

A spinoff of 'The Boys,' Gen V follows a group of competitive young heroes attending the Godolkin University School of Crimefighting. They are the first generation to know about Compound V, and that their powers come from an injection rather than being God-given. These superheroes put their physical and moral boundaries to the test as they vie for the school's highly-coveted top ranking. But when the university's dark secrets come to light, they'll learn that the difference between right and wrong isn't always clear, forcing them to come to terms with the type of heroes want to become.
