War is coming – and not just in the classroom

According to a report by Deadline, the official logline hints at big changes, “Cate and Sam are celebrated heroes, while Marie, Jordan, and Emma reluctantly return to college, burdened by months of trauma and loss. But parties and classes are hard to care about with war brewing between humans and Supes, both on and off campus. The gang learns of a secret program that goes back to the founding of Godolkin University that may have larger implications than they realise.

And, somehow, Marie is a part of it.”

That’s right – we’re diving deeper into the secrets of Godolkin. Expect messy alliances, betrayals, and perhaps even more ties to ‘The Boys’ universe.
