== Runaways straight-to-series ==

"Marvel Studios and ABC Signature are also in pre-production on straight-to-series “Marvel’s Runaways” for Hulu." [http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2017/01/30/freeform-and-marvel-announce-lead-cast-and-creative-team-for-highly-anticipated-series-marvels-cloak-and-dagger-218024/20170130freeform01/ C&D press release].

:Hmm. That seems a little strange to bury that reveal in the very end of a press release. {{u|Adamstom.97}} what are your thoughts? - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 04:34, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

:::I can't seem to access the primary source, but it's not that I don't believe it's there. It's more that it seems like something that would be touted by Hulu or Marvel with an announcement.

:::::It does seem a bit odd, but we knew that they were likely to pick up a full season, so maybe someone just didn't realise that it hadn't been announced yet?

::::::Yes pre-production sounds right. Do you think we should add it here something like, "By the end of January 2017, ''Runaways'' had been ordered straight-to-series."? But what seems odd too, is the supposed filming start info added below, only states it is for the pilot, whereas C&D's states it is for the series. I've already added this Futon source to the C&D draft for the executive producer info for that series, should we need this source, FYI. - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 06:14, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

:::::::::It seems reeally odd that they would order a pilot plus scripts and then pick it up for series before the pilot is made. Perhaps someone at Freeform writing the release mistakenly translated the full season order of scripts to a straight to season order. I agree that waiting is the most prudent action at this point. - [[User:DinoSlider|DinoSlider]] ([[User talk:DinoSlider|talk]]) 12:38, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

== Marvel Cinematic Universe installment ==

I know there has been a big debate about whether or not ''Runaways'' can be listed within the MCU, for various reasons. One thing that Marvel Studios has done with it's official Marvel Cinematic Universe television series is include the "Marvel's" intro word. The pilot episode has now been filmed and wrapped production and those involved in the series are posting on their social media platforms the news while calling ''Runaways'' ''Marvel's Runaways''. It's also worth nothing that the series is a regular topic on the MCU Exchange at www.mcuexchange.com
--[[User:DisneyMetalhead|DisneyMetalhead]] ([[User talk:DisneyMetalhead|talk]]) 04:27, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
:The ''Marvel's'' thing is a good indication to us, as fans, that the series will likely be set in the MCU, but it is not actual confirmation that we can use here. And MCUExchange is just assuming, like many fans. - [[User:Adamstom.97|adamstom97]] ([[User talk:Adamstom.97|talk]]) 09:30, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

I just discovered something when I was reading about ''Doctor Strange'' Easter eggs. Now I know that we usually don't use Comicbook.com as a source, as it is secondary -- but in few cases they have an exclusive article. In the article [http://comicbook.com/marvel/2016/10/14/first-look-at-major-runaways-easter-eggs-in-doctor-strange/| here] it can be read that in the site's interview with Producer and head of Marvel Studios [[Kevin Feige]], Feige stated that the brief scene featuring [[Pride (comics) #The Minoru family|Tina Minoru]] wielding the Staff of One -- whether it was a deleted scene or not (I'm not sure because it's been a while since I've seen the movie) -- was intentionally shot so as to 'set up' or connect to ''Runaways'', as similar strategies are used to set up connections to related properties in the MCU. Does this not confirm that the show is a part of the MCU?--[[User:DisneyMetalhead|DisneyMetalhead]] ([[User talk:DisneyMetalhead|talk]]) 02:18, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

:You have some extra characters at the end of your links. [http://comicbook.com/marvel/2016/10/14/first-look-at-major-runaways-easter-eggs-in-doctor-strange/ Here] is the article in question. However, as I stated at [[Talk:List of Marvel Cinematic Universe television series]]: At no point in that source does Feige say anything about the TV series. The author of the article mentions it, but does not explicitly connect it to the film. - [[User:DinoSlider|DinoSlider]] ([[User talk:DinoSlider|talk]]) 04:34, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

Just in case someone else has problems with the links, Siege said this: "Drumm, you do hear the name in the movie. That's how we always build the universe. There are so many characters in the books, that if we have the need for a person to be in this place at this time and have a line, or have no lines, we still want it to be someone. Often times, that's how the names come about. The names that we pull usually are the ones that are relatively top of mind or have been amongst characters that we've thought about, like the Runaways for a long time. I would call that an Easter egg that most people won't even see".

Which, as pointed by DinoSlider, does not say anything about the TV series. He is talking about the minor character in the Dr. Strange film, that Tina Minoru is a character from the Runaways comic, and why did they name that character as "Tina Minoru" and not "average joe with magic powers". [[User:Cambalachero|Cambalachero]] ([[User talk:Cambalachero|talk]]) 13:07, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
:Also, as can be seen via the article, the actress playing Tina in the TV series is not the same as the one who played her in the film, and their character descriptions are vastly different. Was this simply a recasting? We don't know at this time, so we can't use that as a confirmation. Plus, all that Dino and Cambalachero pointed out: Feige talking about the character in ''Doctor Strange'' makes absolutely no mention of the TV series. (And regardless, all this info about this appearance is in the "Cast" section stating as much as we can at the moment.) - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 15:12, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

::That or it's simply verifies that sources I have used are indeed reliable and dependable. That's all that was intended here. Not so much an 'in your face' but more of a 'yeah, I knew those were good sources'. Given the fact that ''Runaways'' and ''New Warriors'' has been confirmed to be in the MCU, perhaps it is logical (and perhaps expected by the studio(?)) to assume that if it says "Marvel's" in a title announcement for a live action series - it means it is a part of the MCU?

:::The sources were probably reliable all along, that doesn't mean what they were say was correct or able to be used. [[WP:Verifiability, not truth]].

== Genre ==

The "Genre" field in the infobox currently lists Action / Adventure, Science fiction, Superhero and Teen drama. But which is the source for that? The character description released by Marvel, for both the runaways and their parents, not only do not mention anything related to the MCU, they do not list anything remotely superheroic at all. So who's to say that it will be a super hero show? It may also fall in the realm of posibility that the adaption uses the character's personalities and the general premise of escaping from home, but avoiding superpowers completely. No dinosaurs, no aliens, no magic staffs, no robots, no time-travel, no evil gods from another dimension, etc.

You can read the press releases: [https://news.marvel.com/tv/26608/marvels_runaways_headed_to_hulu/ here], [https://news.marvel.com/tv/59437/marvels-runaways-sets-remaining-cast-television-project-hulu/ here], and [https://news.marvel.com/tv/59021/marvels-runaways-finds-cast/ here]. As you can see, nothing superheroic anywhere. Compare with [https://news.marvel.com/comics/369/meet_the_runaways/ here], a description of the comic book characters.

"Teen drama" is fine, that one can clearly be understood from the press releases, but I would remove the others for the time being. [[User:Cambalachero|Cambalachero]] ([[User talk:Cambalachero|talk]]) 14:18, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

:After looking at the sources carefully, I suppose you are correct but Chase's description does seem to hint at his technopathic skills. I guess we'll have to wait and see.--[[User:TriiipleThreat|TriiipleThreat]] ([[User talk:TriiipleThreat|talk]]) 14:56, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

Update, the teaser trailer shows super powers.--[[User:TriiipleThreat|TriiipleThreat]] ([[User talk:TriiipleThreat|talk]]) 20:48, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

== Tina Minoru ==

There has been some discussion about the Runaways being in the MCU or not, and the current idea is to refrain any such claim until Marvel confirms it. But what about the part "The character previously appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe film ''Doctor Strange''"? Saying that, at least that way, is basically to say that the film is in the MCU. If we follow the cautious approach of not treating this as a MCU property unless confirmed, we should also avoid the idea of both installments having the same character. They may be two different and unrelated live-action characters that are simply based on the same comic book character, for the same reason that Spider-Man is not the same live-action character in the Maguire, Garfield and Webb portrayals. Recast and reboot are not the same thing. [[User:Cambalachero|Cambalachero]] ([[User talk:Cambalachero|talk]]) 13:31, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
:Maguire, Garfield, and Holland all play Spider-Man though, and the respective articles for the latter two mention prior portrayals as well. - [[User:Adamstom.97|adamstom97]] ([[User talk:Adamstom.97|talk]]) 04:16, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

== FWIW - Upfront logo ==

The logo used during Hulu's upfront presentation today (seen [https://twitter.com/MCU_Tweets/status/859774599499788288/photo/1 here]) is far different than any we've seen yet for a TV series (note there is no indication it is a final one or not). Seeing this though, definitely puts up flags for me that the series may in fact not be in the MCU. - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 18:58, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

:That's not a logo.

:::True (but that's only a matter of time). It was linked to from the official Marvel Facebook page, which is how I first noticed it.

I feel like this is becoming WAY to particular when really a whole lot about the show isn't yet known. It's like at the slightest indication that something's different, we jump to say one thing or another. The graphic used at the presentation was obviously not a logo for one. Secondly if you reread that interview with Feige I don't see how it can be misconstrued to be misunderstood as him talking about he comicbooks as opposed to the TV series. Can't wait for the studio to shut down all this nitpicking. --[[Special:Contributions/50.232.205.246|50.232.205.246]] ([[User talk:50.232.205.246|talk]]) 19:11, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

== New comic book ==

I have noticed that the Runaways comic book may be relaunched, by Rainbow Rowell and Kris Anka. This is not directly related to the TV series, but focused on the original comic book continuity (meaning, this is not "the comic adaption of the TV series", but an actual comic with new stories). Still, it is clearly done at the same time. Should we mention this, in a "marketing" section or similar, or ignore it as if it was a mere coincidence?

You can see some details [http://comicbook.com/marvel/2017/06/06/rainbow-rowell-gert-yorke-runaways/ here], but have a care, there is a huge spoiler on the content of the first story arc. You have been warned. [[User:Cambalachero|Cambalachero]] ([[User talk:Cambalachero|talk]]) 17:21, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
:Marvel generally tends to publish comics related to their upcoming TV projects or films before or around their release. I wouldn't call it a "coincidence", but I also wouldn't call it anything that should be mentioned here, since it is not a tie-in to this series, just a relaunch of the title in general. - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 23:49, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

== Old Lace ==

{{ping|DisneyMetalhead|Favre1fan93}} The cited source only says that the poster "seemingly confirms the Deinonychus for the series". That sounds a little iffy to me. - [[User:DinoSlider|DinoSlider]] ([[User talk:DinoSlider|talk]]) 00:16, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
:Old Lace is on the poster. [http://www.denofgeek.com/uk/tv/runaways/43088/marvels-runaways-old-lace-pops-up-in-new-poster This source] from Den of Geek is more definitive (and includes the poster in the source for visual reference).

:::Both the ComicBook.com and DenOfGeek.com sources are simply observing what is on the poster. Neither source provides any knowledge of what is actually in the series.

== Logo ==
Who changed the logo?! The one that was there before was much better looking aesthetically than the dark-colored bizarre version that is there now.--[[User:DisneyMetalhead|DisneyMetalhead]] ([[User talk:DisneyMetalhead|talk]]) 17:47, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

== Episode 201 ==
Here is a [https://www.monkeysfightingrobots.com/review-marvels-runaways-on-hulu-hits-all-the-right-notes/ review] of the first four episodes. According to them, the titles for episodes three and four are Destiny and Fifteen, respectively. It is a review, so they must have seen them, but I have never seen this site used as a reference. Thoughts? - [[User:DinoSlider|DinoSlider]] ([[User talk:DinoSlider|talk]]) 00:19, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
:I've seen the site here and there. It is definitely fringe in terms of using as a source, and I'm not sure if it would be consider reliable.

Hi there friends. I was at New York Comic Con and saw the first episode of season 2. Here's some info if we want to put this on the article:
== January 9, 2018 ==


* Director: Allison Liddi-Brown
from the article [[Runaways (TV series)|intro]]:
* Writers: Josh Schwartz & Stephanie Savage
::''the 10-episode series streaming on Hulu from November 21, 2017 until January 9, 2018''
* All main cast members are still credited, with Julian McMahon being promoted to starring (and receiving last billing)
from the [[Runaways_(TV_series)#Release|Release]]:
::''scheduled to conclude its season on January 9, 2018''


Won't discuss plot here, but will just note that the episode features DeVaughn Nixon as Darius Davis and Marlene Forte as Graciela Aguirre. - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 00:47, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
Does that mean the last episode is scheduled for a January 9 release? If so, i request the intro be edited, because the part i quoted above reads to me like the series will not be on Hulu after January 9.


== Split of the cast section? ==
Thanks.


Is it worthwhile to make this split? {{u|JesseRafe}} your edits aren't wrong, per se, but as I stated in [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Runaways_%28TV_series%29&type=revision&diff=936946427&oldid=936905782 my edit summary], I don't agree with the outright removal of these characters.

Hi! I'm new to Wikipedia, so I'm not really sure how it works, but should we split the episodes or seasons off into their own article, since ''Runaways'' is a relatively popular show, I think, and it has so many episodes? <!-- Template:Unsigned --><span class="autosigned" style="font-size:85%;">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:SirLou|SirLou]] ([[User talk:SirLou#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/SirLou|contribs]]) 16:41, 25 January 2021 (UTC)</span> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
I am noticing that a lot of the character section seems to be a direct lift from the press materials for the series. I urge a rewrite to remove the similarities, before someone (read: me) starts excising parts of the section for being copyright violations. I'll wait a week. - [[User:Jack Sebastian|Jack Sebastian]] ([[User talk:Jack Sebastian|talk]]) 14:47, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
:{{re|SirLou}} Hi there! Welcome to Wikipedia. Please read [[WP:TVSPLIT]] regarding this. The series does not have enough total episodes to justify a stand alone episode list.

Hi there friends. I was at New York Comic Con and saw the first episode of season 2. Here's some info if we want to put this on the article:
