Despite being a new spinoff from The Boys, Gen V will feature familiar characters. Here's a comprehensive list of all the cameos thus far. Set in Godolkin University, Vought's prestigious institution for training the upcoming generation of supes, Gen V showcases individuals who will appear in films, secure city contracts, or potentially join The Seven.

Every cameo from The Boys in Gen V
Below, we’ve listed everyone from The Boys who’s appeared in Gen V so far. We’ll keep this space updated with any new cameos as the show progresses.
A-Train
Disclaimer: Homelander and Queen Maeve have only made brief appearances in news reports and have not been featured in the show. Therefore, we have not included them in our content. However, if they make an appearance later in the series, we will update accordingly.
In the pilot episode of Gen V, we catch a glimpse of Reggie Franklin, also known as A-Train (played by Jessie T. Usher), in a short cameo. The episode starts with a flashback to the significant moment when he made history as the first African American to join The Seven.
Madelyn Stillwell
In the news report announcing A-Train’s recruitment into The Seven, Madelyn Stillwell (Elisabeth Shue) has a brief and comical appearance.
In the report, the former VP of Hero Management, Madelyn Stillwell, expresses her excitement and declares that A-Train joining The Seven signifies the truth they have long advocated: a world free of racism. It is worth noting that Madelyn met her demise in Season 1 when Homelander used his laser vision to end her life.
Ashley Barrett
Adam Bourke
Unlike the other cameo appearances, Ashley Barrett (Colby Minifie) takes on a significant role in Gen V. Despite her limited screen time, she now assumes the position of Vought's CEO following Stan Edgar's temporary departure. Whenever the topic of The Woods arises, she consistently exhibits a visibly overwhelmed demeanor.
Adam Bourke (P.J. Byrne), who is famously known for his perpetually grumpy persona and his role as the director of the blockbuster movies like Dawn of the Seven, makes a comeback in Gen V as a special guest speaker at Godolkin University.
Love Sausage
While we don’t see his face, Love Sausage’s ginormous members rears its head in a flashback to Sage Grove in Episode 3 of Gen V.
The Deep
The Deep (Chace Crawford) makes a brief cameo in a recorded message for Professor Brinkerhoff following his early death in series.
Soldier Boy
Soldier Boy is scheduled to make a cameo appearance in Episode 6 of Gen V, although the specific details of his return have yet to be confirmed.
