Marvel’s debut series on the Freeform network, Cloak & Dagger, has a new 3-minute sneak peek video that gives us our first real look at the crime-fighting duo in the superpowered teenage romance show.
The clip shows a very different origin story for the characters created by Bill Mantlo and Ed Hannigan. We see Tyrone Johnson and Tandy Bowen meet when she spills her beer on him at a party.
Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger is the story of Tandy Bowen (Olivia Holt) and Tyrone Johnson (Aubrey Joseph) – two teenagers from very different backgrounds, who find themselves burdened and awakened to newly acquired superpowers which are mysteriously linked to one another. Tandy can emit light daggers and Tyrone has the ability to control the power of darkness. They quickly learn they are better together than apart.
Cloak & Dagger also stars Andrea Roth, Gloria Reuben, Miles Mussenden, Carl Lundstedt, and J.D. Evermore.
I imagine the racists are going to come for this one again.
