Overview
- Prime Video confirmed the umbrella name on Tuesday after an Amazon email to SFX interviewer Jack Shepherd corrected “BCU” to “VCU.”
- The VCU groups the flagship series, now in Season 5, with released spin‑offs Gen V and The Boys Presents: Diabolical and planned projects such as a Vought‑set prequel and The Boys: Mexico.
- Coverage cites two working titles for the prequel, Vought Rising and Vought Uprising, showing the name is still unsettled.
- Showrunner Eric Kripke said the prequel is a lurid 1950s detective story told in the franchise’s graphic, profane tone.
- Reporters note the change mostly provides a shared label for press and marketing rather than altering the stories on screen.
