Hulu Orders Pilot for Marvel's Runaways
Aug 17, 2016
Marvel Television is taking over streaming as Hulu orders a pilot based on the Runaways series from Gossip Girl creators Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage. While the series has yet to be greenlit, Hulu has ordered a full season script in addition to the pilot. Created by Brian K. Vaugn and Adrian Alphona, Runaways focuses on a group of teenagers who find out their parents are part of a evil crime organization. Jeph Loeb, Marvel's Head of TV, said of the series, “We’ve known the Runaways story would make great 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.”
