Synopsis
Six teenagers with very complex characters, whose families have been friends for years, accidentally find out what really keeps their parents together: they all are a part of a supervillain team called Pride. United against their will, the teens steal artifacts belonging to their parents and escape. They have to learn a lot more about their families and themselves: some have a superpower, some can do some magic, and some is an alien from outer space. A team of ragtag teenagers challenges their parents.
Interesting Facts
- The first episode of Runaways was shown by the American channel Hulu on October 6, 2017. The TV-series aired daily and then was renewed for two more seasons. The second season came out on December 21, 2018, the third one was shown a year later. Before the premiere of the third season, we learned that the adventures of gifted adolescents would finish there: the Marvel film studio wanted to create its own television universe from scratch and closed all previous TV-series.
- There was another TV-series about teenagers with superpowers that came out alongside Runaways — Cloak & Dagger — that told about a very different young man and a girl who strengthened each other with their abilities. The writers even organized a crossover of two TV-series: the characters of Cloak & Dagger appeared in the seventh and eighth episodes of the last season of Runaways.
- It is interesting that in 2016 another series about a young team of superheroes from Marvel called New Warriors was in development. The new TV-series was supposed to have such entertaining characters as Squirrel Girl, Mister Immortal, Microbe, and others. However, in 2019 work on the new comic series was discontinued.
