Without Chance Perdomo, ‘Gen V’ producers say new season will adapt to ‘tragic loss’

Actor Chance Perdomo, who starred in Prime Video’s superhero series “Gen V,” died in March. “As we continue to navigate the tragic loss of Chance Perdomo, everyone at ‘Gen V’ is determined to find the best way to pay respect to his memory,” the Sunday statement said. The team behind “Gen V,” a spinoff of Prime Video’s irreverent series “The Boys,” confirmed that it will not recast Perdomo’s role for the upcoming season. “Gen V” producers mourned Perdomo in March, remembering in a statement that he was “always charming and smiling, an enthusiastic force of nature, an incredibly talented performer.” The producers’ statement said “writing about him in the past tense doesn’t make sense” and they expressed condolences to his loved ones.
