We will honor Chance and his legacy this season.”

How ‘Gen V’ Will Connect To ‘The Boys’ Season 4?
‘Gen V‘ is set between the seasons 3 and 4 of ‘The Boys’. The third season of ‘The Boys’ ended with the Homelander going berserk and leaving the old fake “good boy” superhero persona.
He also wreaked havoc in the Godolkin University in the finale of the spin-off series. Now, the story of ‘The Boys‘ season 4 will continue the narrative of the “supe virus” seen in ‘Gen V’.
Billy Butcher for a long time is trying to pack these bad supes in the body bags. Butcher now knows about the existence of this virus. This will give him a competitive edge when he faces a more unhinged Homelander.
On the other hand, Homelander can use this evidence to invoke other supes about the incoming war against their kind. Fans also saw Maddie Philips’ Cate Dunlap and Asa Germann’s Sam in the season 4 trailer. Some fans are speculating that Sam is the new Black Noir. With Starlight and Queen Maeve out of the Seven, Cate can be a new addition to the group.
Creators have already claimed that this new season of ‘The Boys’ will top all the craziness fans witnessed in the previous seasons. It will also tie up with season 2 of ‘Gen V’. So fans have to just wait to see what creators have packed for them.
