The latest entry into Marvel's increasingly packed TV universe (although with a little more room following Inhumans' cancellation), Cloak & Dagger will be the MCU's attempt at a teenage romance.

The show centres around Aubrey Joseph's Tyrone Johnson, aka Cloak, and Olivia Holt's Tandy Bowen, aka Dagger, two teenagers from different backgrounds who develop superpowers while forming a romantic relationship. Their powers work better together, but both their burgeoning abilities and feelings make things a hell of a lot more complicated.

Heroes' Joe Pokaski has created the series, which will air on ABC's sister network Freeform. The pilot received strong reviews after airing at Sundance earlier this year, with lots of praise for the two leads, and it's a unique entry into a market where so much feels familiar.

Air Date: June 7
