Marvel’s Runaways, or simply Runaways, is an American television series created by Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage for the streaming service Hulu, based on the Marvel Comics superhero team of the same name. It is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films and other television series of the franchise. The series is produced by ABC Signature Studios, Marvel Television and Fake Empire Productions, with Schwartz and Savage serving as showrunners.

Rhenzy Feliz, Lyrica Okano, Virginia Gardner, Ariela Barer, Gregg Sulkin, and Allegra Acosta star as the Runaways, six teenagers from different backgrounds who unite against their parents, the Pride, portrayed by Angel Parker, Ryan Sands, Annie Wersching, Kip Pardue, Ever Carradine, James Marsters, Brigid Brannagh, Kevin Weisman, Brittany Ishibashi, and James Yaegashi. Julian McMahon also stars in the second season as Jonah, after recurring in the first, while Clarissa Thibeaux stars in the third season as Xavin, after recurring in the second.

A film from Marvel Studios based on the Runaways began development in May 2008, before being shelved in 2013 due to the success of The Avengers. In August 2016, Marvel Television announced that Runaways had received a pilot order from Hulu, after being developed and written by Schwartz and Savage. Casting for the Runaways and the Pride were revealed in February 2017. Filming on the pilot began in Los Angeles in February 2017. The series was officially ordered by Hulu in May 2017.

The first season was released from November 21, 2017, to January 9, 2018. The show was renewed for a 13-episode second season, which was released in its entirety on December 21, 2018. The third and final season of ten episodes was released on December 13, 2019.

Loeb confirmed in July 2017 that the series would be set in the MCU, but that the show’s characters would not be concerned with the actions of the Avengers, for example, saying, “Would you be following Iron Man [on social media] or would you be following someone your own age? The fact that they’ve found each other and they’re going through this mystery together at the moment is what we’re concerned about, not what Captain America is doing.” The showrunners considered the series’ connection to the MCU to be “liberating”, as it allowed them to set the series in a universe where superheroics and fantasy are already established and do not need to be explained to the audience. Schwartz said they “were very capable of telling the story that we wanted to tell independent of any of the other Marvel stories that are out there.” Initially, Loeb had said that there were no plans to crossover across networks with the similarly themed Cloak & Dagger on Freeform, as Marvel wanted the series to find its footing before further connecting with other elements of the universe, though “You’ll see things that comment on each other; we try to touch base wherever we can… things that are happening in L.A. are not exactly going to be affecting what’s happening in New Orleans [where Cloak & Dagger is set]… It’s being aware of it and trying to find a way [to connect] that makes sense.” On August 1, 2019, it was revealed that season 3 would include a crossover episode with Cloak & Dagger.

Roxxon Energy, a company featured throughout the MCU, has its logo shown in the series. It also mentions Wakanda.Speaking to the third season, the showrunners said the series would “deepen [its] connection” to the Marvel Universe It features the Dark Dimension, as well as the Darkhold as it was portrayed on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
