Andre Anderson, played by Chance Perdomo in Gen V, possesses manipulation of magnetic fields as his primary ability. This power grants him full control over magnetic metals, enabling him to reshape them entirely, although he typically needs to gesture with his hands to focus the effects.
With this ability, Andre can control magnetic metals present in hardware, software, and motherboards, allowing him varying degrees of manipulation over relevant technology. He can override magnetic locks and fingerprint readers as a result. Additionally, he exhibits superhuman strength, durability, and hearing.

Andre Anderson serves as one of the protagonists in The Boys spinoff, Gen V. He is a junior student at Godolkin University and the son of the renowned B-list superhero, Polarity, and Leila Anderson.

Andre’s journey in Gen V season 1
Throughout Gen V season 1 Andre grappled with conflicting desires and emotions. While he aspired to become a hero like his father, Polarity, he harbored doubts about his ability to live up to his father's legacy.
He also ended up betraying his best friend at Godolkin University, Luke, a.k.a. Golden Boy, by pursuing a romantic relationship with his girlfriend, Cate Dunlap.
Following Luke’s self-detonation, Andre experienced profound guilt and sadness for not being truthful with him about his relationship with Cate. He also struggled with the pressure of becoming the top-ranked student and worried that he was not worthy of the title, further complicating his internal conflict.
As Andre delved deeper into uncovering the truth about The Woods, a secret facility conducting illegal tests on Supes, he became consumed by the mystery surrounding Luke's suicide.
Upon discovering that his father was complicit in the operations of The Woods, Andre's feelings of betrayal intensified, leading to a strained relationship with his father.
It was also during this time that he learned that overusing his powers could lead to the development of brain lesions, a condition his father had experienced, causing him to suffer from seizures. He is last seen at the end of season 1 in a medical facility alongside Emma, Marie, and Jordan.
