The Boys Gets a Spinoff from Amazon
Plans are afoot for a spinoff series from Amazon's ratings record-breaker The Boys. Deadline reports that Craig Rosenberg is writing and serving as showrunner on the series, which would explore the campus training ground for Vought International supes. In other words, it's a college comedy with superheroes, and the satirical tone of the core series. The show is fast-tracked due to the runaway success of season 2 of the show, which has already topped season one's record-breaking run. Eric Kripke, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg will all continue on as EPs on the new series.
