The Boys Spinoff Is Going To College

Amazon’s superhero series The Boys is getting a spinoff set in superhero college.

Written by The Boys executive producer Craig Rosenberg, it is being fast-tracked in light of the success of the original series’ second season which marked the most-watched global launch of an Amazon Original series ever.

Set at America’s only college exclusively for young adult superheroes (and run by Vought International), the Untitled Boys Spinoff is described as 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, competing for the best contracts in the best cities. Part college show, part Hunger Games — with all the heart, satire and raunch of The Boys.

Rosenberg is writing the pilot and will serve as executive producer/showrunner on the spinoff with developer/executive producer Eric Kripke and fellow EPs, Point Grey Pictures’ Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and James Weaver; and Original Film’s Neal H. Moritz and Pavun Shetty also executive producing.

Based on The New York Times best-selling comic by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, The Boys is a fun and irreverent take on what happens when superheroes – who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as gods – abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It’s the powerless against the super-powerful as the Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about The Seven, and Vought – the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages these superheroes and covers up all of their dirty secrets.
