Marvel Sets Crossover Episode for Hulu’s ‘Runaways’ and Freeform’s ‘Cloak and Dagger’

Installment will air during Season 3 of “Runaways,” which launches Dec. 13

“Marvel’s Runaways” and “Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger” are finally getting the crossover episode fans of both the Hulu series and Freeform show have been clamoring for, Marvel Television said on Thursday.

“It’s so fun being able to do something that revels in the Mighty Marvel Manner! Having these young heroes crossover allows fans of both shows to see the adventure everyone has been waiting for and we’ve only hinted at,” Jeph Loeb, executive producer and head of Marvel Television, said in a statement.

“How Cloak and Dagger will cross paths with our Runaways have yet to be revealed,” Marvel said, but viewers should “expect more details as we near the Season 3 premiere of Marvel’s ‘Runaways,’” which launches Dec. 13 on Hulu.

In the third season, the Runaways frantically search for their captured friends Chase Stein (Gregg Sulkin), Gert Yorkes (Ariela Barer), and Karolina Dean (Virginia Gardner). The kids go head to head with an unstoppable enemy who has targeted Leslie (Annie Wersching) — or more accurately, the child she’s carrying. Nico Minoru (Lyrica Okano) draws them all into a dark realm where its ruler Morgan le Fay, played by Elizabeth Hurley, is much more nefarious than anyone the kids have yet to face.

Meanwhile, the second season of the Freeform series “Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger,” which concluded in May of this year, ended with Tyrone Johnson (Aubrey Joseph) and Tandy Bowen (Olivia Holt) on a bus leaving New Orleans in the hopes of helping out other parts of the country.

Each season of both shows are available on Hulu. You can also find the second season of “Cloak and Dagger” on Freeform.com. Watch the announcement video featuring the teenage cast of both shows above.
