After three epic seasons of &#039;The Boys&#039;

‘The Boys’ Spinoff ‘Gen V’ Featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Son Patrick Swoons Over the Internet

Who could ever forget the debauchery that the series The Boys gave its fans?
With three seasons, the show made fans fall in love with the storyline filled
with not the usual type of superheroes and has a fourth one on the way. But
while fans are waiting for the next season, the creator of the show, Eric
Kripke, has given fans a spinoff of the series, Gen V, which features Arnold
Schwarzenegger [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/arnold-schwarzenegger]‘s son
Patrick Schwarzenegger.

Just days after the first three episodes of the season of the superhero series
made its way to Amazon Prime, it stole the hearts of its newfound fans. So much
so that fans immediately took to social media to ask the creators of the show to
give some of their favorite characters more screen time. But with The
Terminator‘s son in the lead role as Luke Riordan, it was no surprise that the
internet has now been swooning over the actor’s skillset and talent.

Although fans were once completely against Patrick Schwarzenegger taking up the
role in Kripke’s spin-off series, it looks like their minds have changed after
getting to watch the star in action. While the storyline has hooked fans in just
3 episodes, Patrick’s acting is one of the main things that has been gaining
attention.

With the show out now, Schwarzenegger’s son has proved that he deserved the lead
role in Gen V and did nothing wrong following his father’s acting legacy. And,
netizens agree to the same.


PATRICK SCHWARZENGGER STUNS THE INTERNET

While the series may still have a way to go with only 3 episodes released out of
9, fans can not deny that Patrick Schwarzenegger has done a brilliant job of
portraying the superhero student, Luke Riordan AKA Golden Boy. In fact, he did
so exceptionally well that fans decided to take to social media and share their
thoughts on his latest project, Gen V.

While some users seemed to love the show, they thought Patrick Schwarzenegger
might be even better in a Resident Evil film and others pointed out their
favorite scenes featuring him.

While most users could not help but appreciate the 30-year-old’s acting, some
were more focused on things that did not seem to matter as much.

While fans may be a little split over the star’s latest project, it is not his
first time being thrown into the spotlight. And from the success of the series
so far, it probably will not be the last either. With 5 episodes left to close
out the first season, fans will get to see more of the actor’s range. And who
knows? Maybe fans will also get to see if he will be able to live up to his
father’s legacy.
