Gen V star Jaz Sinclair sheds light on the upcoming spin-off's narrative

Gen V is set to be premiered soon and fans cannot wait for the series that is positioned as the bridge between The Boys seasons three and four. The upcoming series will introduce fans to a fresh ensemble­ of Compound V-enhanced individuals vying for positions in The Se­ven.

While Sinclair is set to portray the character of Marie Moreau, Jack Quaid will have cameo appearances which are still under wraps. However, his presence is palpable in the foundation of the series. The series will showcase a younger generation of Supes who will take the baton from Jack Quaid and Karl Urban.

During an interview with SFX magazine, Jaz Sinclair opened up about Quaid's impressive advice to the new cast of the show while filming. She said that he told the team to "stay a family" and to "stay a team." Jaz added that Jack further told them that if they had each other they would get through it and even asked them not to "lose sight of that."

The actress noted that the case was incredibly unified and felt like a family and that was something she valued as she also felt it when the cast was together.

As the conversation with Gen V star progressed, she further spoke about the focal points in the series and what fans can expect from the same.

"In the Gen V world, the kids are still idealistic. They’re not fully formed into either a hero or a villain. For me, that was a really interesting topic and a really interesting time in all of their lives because I feel like it gives us a chance to know where everybody came from and to watch the unfolding of them becoming the kind of hero that they’re gonna become," Jaz said.

She added that it fascinates her as it humanizes everyone including those who make the good choice and the bad.

"It leaves a lot of room for potential heartbreak, friendships, and stuff that wouldn’t be possible if we were all fully-fledged adults," Jaz said.
