Amazon Studios Greenlights The Boys Spin-Off

Amazon Studios has ordered a spin-off series of the Emmy-nominated superhero drama The Boys.

Set at America’s only college exclusively for young-adult superheroes, the as-yet-untitled spin-off is an irreverent, R-rated series that explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual and moral boundaries to the test.

The series will premiere exclusively on Amazon Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

Jaz Sinclair, Lizze Broadway, Shane Paul McGhie, Aimee Carrero, Reina Hardesty and Maddie Phillips will portray young superheroes.

“Much like Mork & Mindy spun off from Happy Days—which is an insane and true fact—our spin-off will exist in the Vought Cinematic Universe, yet have a tone and style all its own. It’s our take on a college show, with an ensemble of fascinating, complicated and sometimes deadly Young Supes,” said The Boys’ showrunner and executive producer Eric Kripke. “Michele and Tara are stone-cold geniuses. We’re thrilled to have them steer this ship and grateful to Sony and Amazon for the opportunity. We love this show and can’t wait for you to see it. Also, Baywatch Nights spun off from Baywatch, and it had vampires. Vampires!”
