Marie Moreau: Jaz Sinclair
Jaz Sinclair plays Marie Moreau, Gen V’s protagonist with some bloody devastating powers.

Andre Anderson: Chance Perdomo
Chance Perdomo played Andre Anderson, a student at Godolkin University in one of the more popular friend groups with Golden Boy. Andre can bend metal at will, a power that’s helped get him out of trouble countless times.
Perdomo, who had also starred in Netflix’s Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, died in March 2023.
Emma Meyer: Lizze Broadway
Lizzie Broadway plays Emma Meyer, Marie Moreau’s roommate at Godolkin University. Akin to Ant-Man, just with a far more disgusting process involved, Meyer can shrink down to minuscule proportions thanks to her superpower.
Cate Dunlap: Maddie Phillips
Maddie Phillips plays the role of Cate Dunlap, a mind-controlling Supe entangled with Golden Boy. Dunlap can essentially command anyone to do just about anything, simply by making physical contact and then making her demands.
Philips is most known for her role in the Netflix action-comedy series Teenaged Bounty Hunters.
Jordan Li: London Thor
London Thor plays one-half of Jordan Li, a character capable of shifting their gender and appearance on the fly. At any given moment, Li can morph from male to female or visa-versa.
In addition to acting, Thor is a singer and songwriter who began her career at just 15 years old.

Derek Luh plays the other half of Jordan Li, the male counterpart to Thor’s female portrayal. Li appears to have a great deal of strength and damage resistance as well, though the true extent of their power remains unclear.
Funnily enough, Derek Luh is also a music artist. He has toured with Machine Gun Kelly, and collaborated with French Montana and Dizzy Wright. Jordan is his breakout acting role.
Sam Riordan: Asa Germann
Asa Germann plays Sam, a younger Supe with near-unprecedented strength, capable of eviscerating even the toughest foes without breaking a sweat. Sam also appears all but impervious to damage as well.
Germann was also in Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story in 2022 and Caviar in 2021.
Indira Shetty: Shelley Conn
Shelley Conn plays Indira Shetty, the first of our human characters in Gen V. Shetty is the superintendent of Godolkin University, doing her utmost to ensure the campus remains the top spot in America for Supes to hone their powers. At least, those appear to be her intentions on the surface.
Conn is recognized for being Lady Mary Sheffield Sharma in Season 2 of the romantic TV series Bridgerton and appearing as Beelzebub in four episodes of Good Omens.
Professor Rich Brinkerhoff: Clancy Brown
Clancy Brown plays Professor Rich Brinkerhoff, otherwise referred to as ‘Brink.’ As a renowned author, Brink has dedicated his life to studying Supes and everything that makes them tick, though he himself is just a human.
Clancy Brown is a character actor with an extensive body of work which includes movies like John Wick 4, Highlander, Starship Troopers, and The Shawshank Redemption. He also has roles in TV shows like Invincible and The Penguin.
Luke ‘Golden Boy’ Riordan: Patrick Schwarzenegger
Patrick Schwarzenegger played Luke Riorda, best known as Golden Boy. As the nickname implies, Golden Boy was largely touted as the top prospect at Godolkin University, one with a golden ticket to a spot among The Seven. Capable of heating up any situation, Golden Boy can bend fire to his will, engulfing his entire body in flames.
Patrick Schwarzenegger is Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son and has also been in Midnight Sun, The Staircase, and The Terminal List.
Tek Knight: Derek Wilson
Derek Wilson plays Tek Knight, real name Robert Vernon, a super-powered, award-winning actor and investigator — as well as a serial pervert.
