Par Mulder, 17 août 2016

Le premier comics Runaways a été publié en juillet 2003 et doit sa création à Brian K. Vaughan (scénariste) et
Adrian Alphona (dessinateur). Dans celui-ci un groupe de six adolescents pensent que leurs parents sont des forces malfaisantes et décident d’unir leur force pour lutter contre eux. Ainsi Runaways rejoint la longue liste des adaptations de séries Marvel. On compte à l’heure actuelle sur la chaine ABC (Marvel : Les agents du Shield, Agent Carter, Damage control), Netflix (diffusées ou à venir prochainement) (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, The Defenders), FX (Legion)..

Cette série aura comme producteurs exécutifs et co-showrunners Josh Schwartz et Stephanie Savage (Gossip Girl). Il s’agit d’une coproduction avec ABC signature Studios.

“ Marvel Television will be bringing the fan-favorite and ground breaking comic book series, Runaways, to popular streaming service, Hulu. Every teenager thinks their parents are evil. What if you found out they actually were? MARVEL’S RUNAWAYS is the story of six diverse teenagers who can barely stand each other but who must unite against a common foe – their parents. “We've known the Runaways' story would make great television," said Jeph Loeb, EP and Head of Marvel Television, "and being lucky enough to have Josh and Stephanie -- who have time and again created shows that speak so genuinely to this exact audience -- write and produce the series is nothing short of remarkable." "I'm a long-time fan of Runaways and couldn't be more excited to bring Brian and Adrian’s characters to life," said Schwartz. Adds Savage, "Josh and I can't wait to get to work for Marvel and Hulu." Marvel’s Runaways is Executive Produced by series Co-Showrunners/writers Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage ("THE O.C.”, “GOSSIP GIRL") along with Marvel’s Head of Television, Jeph Loeb (“Marvel’s Jessica Jones,” “Marvel’s Luke Cage”) and Jim Chory (“Marvel’s Daredevil,” “Marvel’s Jessica Jones.”) Fake Empire's Lisa Rowinski will produce as well. Marvel's Runaways is a co-production with ABC Signature Studios. "Marvel’s Runaways" for Hulu is based on the comic created by the award-winning team of Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona. “
