On August 2, Marvel TV's
Runaways will make the jump from Hulu to Freeform (formerly ABC Family). The first episode will air directly after the season 1 finale of Cloak & Dagger (8est /7pst PM). However, there's a catch.
Only the first episode of
Runaways will be shown, as the comic book adaptations shift from streaming to broadcast TV looks to be a temporary, one-time thing.
Also of interest is the fact that 20th Century Fox owns 30% of Hulu, which will naturally transfer over to Disney when the merger is finalized. That certainly opens the door for a number of tantalizing possibilities, especially with the relationship between Netflix and Marvel appearing to sour a bit.
It's also possible that Marvel could simply yank all of the Fox-owned properties currently airing on Hulu and move them to the forthcoming Disney streaming service.
After discovering their parents are super-villains in disguise, a group of teenagers band together to run away from their homes in order to atone for their parents' actions and to discover the secrets of their origins.
Based on the comic book from Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona.
