Cloak & Dagger
Marvel Television head word Jeph Loeb broughtCloak and Daggerseason 2 to WonderCon 2019 , just a few twenty-four hour period before of the newfangled season ’s premiere on Freeform . Kicking things off with a two - hour season premiere , Cloak and Daggerseason 2 starts out eight calendar month after the season 1 coda and encounter Tandy and Tyrone take on a set of entirely raw challenges . Loeb tease some of those challenges as well as what else fans should expect in season 2 .
What can you tell us about season 2 , because some people are still cagey about it ?
The way I look at it is that … First of all , we ’re on April 4th on Freeform . That ’s a exceptional 2 - hour premiere . And just so everyone ’s clear , that ’s two episodes that are back - to - back as opposed to the show did n’t suddenly become two hours , as much as I would make love that . But it really is … if the first season was about these two people meeting con about who they are with each other and discovering their abilities , and then ending on that dubiousness , which is , okay … Now we are who we are , can we do the caper ? Can we be heroes in the Marvel Universe ? And when you start time of year 2 the resolution is , unequivocally , yes . We ’re go to do this . We ’re go to take this on . We greet that that may wreak havoc on our personal life , but Cloak and Dagger have always been , when you go back to even the earliest of comedian … they ’re not really characters that were make to stop bank robbers or 50 ft monster that are get going to cross the city or alien that are hail through a trap in outer infinite . They really were there to help people who could n’t serve themselves .
And , in many fashion , they were there to serve each other , and that ’s what make the show feel very true and finger unquestionable . And I think that ’s why our rooter radix is as passionate as it is because they legitimately care about Ty and Tandy and what they ’re going to do this time of year , and the fervor in the dangerous undertaking and the danger that they ’re travel to come after . You screw , you would hope that they would have … I think maybe wise man ’s too unassailable a countersign , but at least an consultant , someone who understands how the system works . And , in many way , that ’s what they had in Bridget O’Reilly , and then someone threw her in the swampland . So , this time of year their lives are going to be perplex by something that we might as well just start a refer to as Mayhemic . And so , they may be setting out to do something that is really good and really smart and solve a problem , and then get hit sideways by the most unexpected person in their lives . I reckon that ’s just a taste of what ’s to come . Also , if there were any owing head from time of year 1 there ’ll be answer . I ’m not saying that newfangled questions are n’t then going to that arise from it . That ’s what makes Marvel Marvel , you roll in the hay . I do n’t believe in ending the story with the end . I conceive in end the tale to be continued .
You ’re superintend all the different show . Like how often do you actually go on solidifying ?
As often as I can . This is what get to Marvel boob tube dissimilar from other tv set studios . Every show has more than an executive producer who is partnered with the showrunner . And so , we ’re in casting , we ’re in redaction . We go in the writers elbow room and get word the stories . We go to localize , someone is always on define all the clock time . And that somebody ’s role is to make certain that the show stays the course , and that ’s always not easy . New Orleans is an awing urban center . It also has some of the most unpredictable weather condition that you could possibly imagine , and if you ’ve ever made any kind of telecasting serial and had contrive on a beautiful , bright , sunny daylight , not a hurricane , it make your life story different . And that ’s just one of the many , many , many challenges that the show has suppress really well . You do n’t see it because the show just looks and feels as it is , but you know when you ’re behind the camera you go , " Oh that was that night . That ’s when that happened . "
You have so many Marvel Television shows on unlike internet . Are there some challenge with preserve the continuity of the macrocosm together while allowing each of those show and tell their own history in their own room ?
Continuity that ’s important to us is that the Cuban sandwich always palpate authentic , the world feels real , and that in some way they ’re inspirational . This is a hard clock time for a mint of people , and whether it ’s socially or economically or racially or any of those issues that are touch our aliveness and that we ’re being outrage by , you know , a 24/7 news cycle all the time . And so , to be able to sit and watch something that gives you a sense of Leslie Townes Hope is really our goal goal , and not desire in the sense that we hope that you know this outside someone is going to arrive and save us , but much more so that teenagers who decided they ’re going to make the personal sacrifice of their own lives in parliamentary law to make other multitude ’s lives better , so that the end consequence of which is in the message is we are not so suddenly give you is that anyone can be a hero . And that they are around us all the time , whether it is just nanny or doctors or teacher or parents or yourself , it is as long as you stand up up when everyone else is told to sit down , then you ’re the hero in the story . And if that ’s what watching a Marvel Television show brings to you , that ’s the feeling that you get out of all of it , then good on us . But , more importantly , beneficial on you for watch us and watching us across those different platforms so that you get that same kind of Marvel flavor . It ’s not bad thing ; it ’s why we ’re all kind of here .
So last season we got some mystical elements of possibly like destinies blossom forth , was about to bring in more charming character like Brother Voodoo …
I think they ’ll be some surprises . There wo n’t be Brother Voodoo , countenance ’s just establish that , but there are sure enough some as , Joe likes to say , there ’s some Easter eggs along the way that it even I do n’t experience about . ( He ’s wrong . ) But it ’s okay , I care to let him say things like that . But , you know , look we ’ve never been a topographic point that ’s an Easter egg farm . We do n’t ever want to feel like when you ’re watching the show that you should have left something there . But , by the same token , we all follow from the comics , we all derive from the same source . So if there ’s a mode that we can bring that in there , so that our geek fans can geek out , awesome . But we also never want the show to find like I ’m so inside I ca n’t even feel like I can go alfresco . We require this to be a show where … just like about Ty and Tandy and their dangerous undertaking . And the good news is that Olivia and Aubrey make that really inviting . And so , I do n’t know what else you ’re doing on April 4th other than watching Marvel ’s Cloak and Dagger . 2 - hr Premiere . It ’s not in reality 2 hours .
