Viewed the initial three episodes of Prime Video's second season of 'Gen V' - a must-watch for fans of 'The Boys'
In the world of streaming entertainment, Malcolm has been a trusted guide since 2023, providing insightful reviews and analysis at Tom's Guide. Recently, Malcolm has been immersed in seven Emmy-nominated shows, one of which is the highly anticipated second season of "Gen V".
Before diving into the latest instalment, Malcolm revisited season 1 to prepare for reviewing the season 2 premiere. He was captivated by the return of "Gen V", a show that revolves around super-powered teens running rampant at a fictional college.
The three-episode premiere of "Gen V" season 2 is off to a good start, with the character of Marie Moreau (Jaz Sinclair) establishing her potential as the most powerful superhero on the planet. Showrunner Eric Kripke hints at the importance of "Gen V" in setting up the final confrontation in "The Boys".
Intriguingly, watching season 2 of "Gen V" is necessary to understand events in "The Boys" season 5. The climax of "The Boys" season 5 may be influenced by events in "Gen V" season 2, particularly the superhero-targeting virus plotline that is a shock reveal at the end of "The Boys".
The details of this plotline are laid out in "Gen V", where Project Odessa, a major plot device, is further explained in the three-episode premiere. However, the character who invents Project Odessa is not explicitly mentioned in the provided search results.
Meanwhile, Malcolm is already intrigued by the new crime thriller movie from Netflix, starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, with the trailer-released film expected to be a vital part of "The Boys" season 5.
Aside from his streaming reviews, Malcolm has a soft spot for the action-packed "John Wick" films, believing it to be one of the four greatest films ever made.
Starlight recruits Marie Moreau in the trailer for "Gen V" season 2, promising an exciting continuation of the series. With "Gen V" season 2 setting the stage for "The Boys" season 5, it's an essential watch for fans of both shows.
