Marvel and Freeform have found their stars to topline their new straight to series adaptation. The new coming-of-age live-action drama based on the Marvel characters of the same name, will star Olivia Holt and Aubrey Joseph.
Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger follows the interracial romance between Tandy Bowen (Holt) and Tyrone Johnson (Joseph), who come from starkly different backgrounds, each growing up with a secret they never dared share with another soul. Tandy can emit light daggers and Tyrone has the ability to engulf others in darkness. They quickly learn they are better together than apart — but their feelings for each other make their already complicated world even more challenging.
