“The Boys” has proven to be a massively success series for Amazon, currently in its second season, and we’ve learned today that a spinoff series is now in the works at Amazon!
Variety reports that Amazon is fast-tracking a series “set at America’s only college exclusively for young adult superheroes (or “supes”) that is run by Vought International.”
The site notes, “It 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.”
Craig Rosenberg will serve as showrunner and he’s also writing the pilot.
Producers will include “The Boys” team of Eric Kripke, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.
“The Boys” is based on the best-selling comics by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson.
