The other employees on the rig had been infected by the strange energy that Roxxon was searching for, and appear in Ivan 's memories as psychopathic killers. Ivan believes that the explosion can be stopped from the core, but was unable to do so in real life and has still been unsuccessful in his attempts since. Tyrone is able to do so with his powers, but it does not work due to being Ivan 's mind. Tandy discovers that her father Nathan had called Ivan moments before the explosion, and takes the opportunity to talk to him in each loop.

Production Development At San Diego Comic - Con International 2011, head of Marvel Television Jeph Loeb announced the series Cloak & Dagger was in development at ABC Family. The series, which would be set in post-Hurricane Katrina New Orleans, would follow Cloak and Dagger as the two `` find each other and realize that their powers both complement and complicate their lives. '' In April 2016, the series received a straight - to - series order for Freeform, the new name of ABC Family, from ABC Signature Studios and Marvel Television, with the search for a showrunner underway. The order consisted of 10 episodes. By August 2016, Joe Pokaski had signed on to the series as showrunner and executive producer, with Loeb and Jim Chory also serving as executive producers. Alan Fine, Stan Lee, Joe Quesada, and Karim Zreik also serve as executive producers, while Jenny Klein produces the series. On July 20, 2018, Freeform renewed the series for a 10 - episode second season. The announcement trailer for the season teased the inclusion of Brigid O'Reilly's alter ego from the comics, Mayhem. Writing Writing for Cloak & Dagger began by the end of August 2016, with Pokaski re-writing his initial script that November. When announcing the series, Freeform called it their `` first venture into the Marvel Cinematic Universe '', and described it as a `` superhero love story '', a premise that Variety called `` a seamless fit for Freeform '' given the channel 's target audience of `` Becomers '' ( the 14 -- 34 age demographic ). Addressing this, Loeb said, `` It 's a love story that happens to have characters that have always traditionally been in that age group. It 's not like we took something and made it into a ( young adult fiction ( YA ) ). It speaks to a YA audience and is a YA property. Would I do Punisher on Freeform ? I do n't think that 's going to connect the same way. '' Olivia Holt felt the series explored `` the story of what a white female is going through in 2018 and what a black young male is going through in 2018. We see these characters unfold into themselves in the most complex ways ''. Pokaski created an 80 - page `` bible '' for the first season, feeling he followed a good portion of it, while still allowing himself and the writers the ability to deviate from it if better story points arose. Pokaski was pleased with the diversity of the writers for the series, as they could `` represent things that I do n't understand ''. With a majority of black writers, they could `` really talk about issues '' such as `` the story of two young men, driving through New Orleans and talking about their reality and how justice is for other people '', while the women writers `` really keep ( Pokaski ) honest as to how to push the envelope and tell the story of a young woman who 's a superhero ''. Pokaski spoke about the differences in Cloak and Dagger 's origin story from the comics, saying, `` I think the original ( comic ) stories were fantastic, but for the time, while they were a little progressive, they were a little bit sexist and racist once you got into it, for now. What we tried to do was deconstruct it and make it about Tandy and Tyrone, understand who they were. '' He also felt Loeb 's idea of having the duo live in New Orleans, opposed to New York City as in the comics, was a `` great idea ''. Pokaski did not want to rush the romantic relationship between the duo, insisting that the season is `` more about finding your best friend... this show is about ' There 's exactly one person who understands me. ' '' He also hoped the series would last long enough to allow for `` an interesting path to their relationship. '' Structurally for the series, Pokaski felt the first four episodes was the series first act, where viewers get to understand Tandy and Tyrone individually, the next three `` are about them coming together comprehensively, not only as a team, but as best friends '', before concluding with the last three episodes. The killing of officer Fuchs by having him appear in a refrigerator was meant to `` throw ( the Women in Refrigerators trope ) on its head '', according to Pokaski, adding the idea was brought about `` so we can at least start a conversation about how we can all be slightly less lazy writers. '' Regarding a second season, Pokaski noted `` Colony Collapse '' would leave `` some stuff open, intentionally '' though its post-credit scene is `` tremendously definitive... that will help define some of the '' direction for a potential second season. Pokaski has an intent to create 100 episodes for the series, with `` a definitive plan for five season '' created. Casting Olivia Holt and Aubrey Joseph at WonderCon 2018 promoting Cloak & Dagger In January 2017, it was announced that Olivia Holt and Aubrey Joseph had been cast as Tandy Bowen / Dagger and Tyrone Johnson / Cloak, respectively. Gina Prince - Bythewood, the director of the first episode, called the casting process `` really, really tough... it was three days before we were supposed to leave ( to begin filming ) and we did n't find ( actors for Tandy and Tyrone ). People started getting willing to settle and the people that were on the table were 27, 28. They felt grown and it did n't feel right for the show. Then Aubrey and Olivia walked in the door, and they had such great chops individually ''. The following month, Andrea Roth was cast as Melissa Bowen, Tandy 's mother ; Gloria Reuben and Miles Mussenden were cast as Tyrone 's parents, Adina and Otis Johnson ; and Carl Lundstedt and J.D. Evermore were cast as Liam Walsh and Connors, respectively. Emma Lahana and Jaime Zevallos also star as Brigid O'Reilly and Delgado. Noëlle Renée Bercy recurs in the series as Evita Fusilier, along with Wayne Péré as Peter Scarborough, Lane Miller as Fuchs, Angela Davis as Chantelle, Ally Maki as Mina Hess, and Tim Kang as Ivan Hess. James Saito was also announced to appear in the series as Bernard Sanjo, Tyrone 's unusual friend who is an emotional cornerstone in his life but ultimately did not appear in the series. Filming Filming for the series had begun by February 8, 2017, in New Orleans, under the working title Shadows. In December 2016, Disney planned to spend $11.2 million, of a total $42 million budget for the first season of the show, in Louisiana, over an 86 - day filming period. Filming on the pilot episode wrapped on February 24, 2017. Photography on the remainder of the first season resumed in New Orleans on July 24. Filming locations included the Le Pavillon Hotel. Filming officially wrapped on November 2. The season features many hand - held camera shots that established the `` look and feel '' of the series, in part because Pokaski `` did n't want to wait for a dolly track to be laid ''. The second season is expected to start filming just one month after the season one finale. Music Mark Isham announced in May 2017 that he would compose the music for the series, having previously collaborated with the show 's premiere director Gina Prince - Bythewood on the films The Secret Life of Bees and Beyond the Lights. Isham described the series as `` extremely character driven '' and focused on the difficult childhoods of the title characters, so his score is `` dark, but also young enough to keep up with the teenage cast. '' The score was expected to have `` a jazzy New Orleans flair.

But anything is possible with Marvel. '' In July, Loeb said there were no plans to crossover, nor to crossover across networks with the similarly themed Marvel 's Runaways on Hulu. He added that Marvel wanted the series to find its footing before further connecting with other elements of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, saying `` You 'll see things that comment on each other ; we try to touch base wherever we can... things that are happening in L.A. ( where Runaways is set ) are not exactly going to be affecting what 's happening in New Orleans... It 's being aware of it and trying to find a way for it to be able to discuss in a way that makes sense. '' Ahead of the series premiere, considering the larger events of the MCU at that point, Pokaski said he was `` not allowed to talk about '' how the series would connect to the events of Avengers : Infinity War but stated `` We 've had some exciting conversations about how we could artfully cross Tandy and Tyrone over ( to other Marvel properties ). The beauty of these two is that they can show up anywhere ( and it makes sense ). '' Roxxon Gulf, a division of the Roxxon Corporation company that has been featured throughout the MCU, is seen in the series. The Darkforce dimension which fuels Cloak 's powers was previously established in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter. Pokaski stated that `` There are at least a dozen Easter eggs in the first season that Marvel approved, and a few more that I snuck in there. '' O'Reilly discusses formerly working in Harlem and her friend Misty Knight in the series, while her move to New Orleans is mentioned by her former New York colleagues in the second season of Luke Cage. Loeb noted the Luke Cage references were `` not by mistake '', with the potential for them to become something more, such as having Simone Missick, who portrays Misty Knight, appearing in the series. Tony Stark and Danny Rand are also mentioned in the series. Release Broadcast Cloak & Dagger premiered on Freeform on June 7, 2018, with the series consisting of 10 episodes and running through August 2. It was originally intended to premiere in 2017 when it was first ordered to series. ABC Spark airs the series in Canada, also starting on June 7, with Amazon Video airing the series in the United Kingdom and select additional European countries, starting on June 8, 2018. The second season, again consisting of 10 episodes, is scheduled to debut in early 2019. Marketing Loeb, Holt, Joseph, Pokaski, and Prince - Bythewood at WonderCon 2018 promoting Cloak & Dagger The first trailer for the series was released on April 19, 2017, ahead of Freeform 's 2017 upfront presentation. The A.V. Club 's William Hughes described the trailer as dark and moody, `` the grimmest entry we 've seen from Marvel TV to date. '' He felt that Joseph and Holt `` look like they 're game to capture the necessary ' You 're the only person on Earth who gets me ' vibe '' that is central to the comic characters. Ben Pearson at / Film said the trailer looked `` dangerously cheesy '', and as `` over the top '' as other Freeform shows. He added, `` It also does n't look very much like other Marvel shows. So if all else fails, at least this will be an experiment to see how well Marvel 's products can transition within genres and play to different audiences. '' Rob Cave for Comic Book Resources felt setting the series in New Orleans `` gives audiences a glimpse of part of the Marvel Universe, and of America, that is seen on screen far less often than the mythical realms of Asgard or the sci - fi cities of Xandar Prime, let alone the over-exposed metropolises of New York and LA. The move also gives Cloak and Dagger 's story its own space, far from the clutter and the clamor of the multitudes of superheroes already established across '' the MCU. In August 2017, exclusive clips from the series were shown at the Edinburgh International Television Festival. The series was part of Freeform 's `` activation zone '' at New York Comic Con 2017.

It was also the best series launch on Freeform in two years and Freeform 's most - watched drama since `` Till Death Do Us Part '', the series finale of Pretty Little Liars in June 2017. `` First Light '' also had the biggest digital debut ever for the network, with 716,000 starts. The premiere drew 7.3 million views across linear and digital platforms and was Thursday 's most - social scripted series with 112,000 engagements across Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Tumblr. Critical response The review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 90 % approval rating with an average rating of 7.77 / 10 based on 41 reviews. The website 's critical consensus reads, `` Cloak & Dagger blends soapy drama with superhero grit to create an exciting, surprisingly thoughtful addition to the genre -- even if it falls prey to a certain amount of narrative bloat. '' Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 68 out of 100 based on reviews from 15 critics, indicating `` generally favorable reviews ''. Early reactions to the first episode from its screening at South by Southwest 2018 were largely positive, with praise going to Joseph and Holt 's performances. Alex McLevy of The A.V. Club noted the screening debuted `` to raucous applause '', and felt `` The show definitely looks good. It has some real issues in other areas, but the charismatic leads are the true find, and if the show succeeds, it will largely be on the back of the work they do. '' He added that there were major changes from the comics, including the relocation of the character from New York to New Orleans and the addition of `` parents, home lives, and all manner of other backstories rejiggered to serve the long - form TV storytelling framework. '' Meredith Borders of / Film gave the first episode a 9 out of 10, calling it `` among the upper echelon of Marvel television... ( doing ) so with style and powerful storytelling '' and felt it was `` new in every particular way ''. Borders felt the leads `` have tremendous chemistry onscreen '' that she became `` deeply invested '' in. She also called the look of the series `` much richer and more textured '' than many other superhero and Freeform series, felt the protagonists ' powers were shown `` in a really visually organic way '', and praised Isham 's music. Borders also noted the strong divergence from the comics source material, but felt `` the spirit of the characters absolutely remains the same. '' In his review of the first four episodes, Daniel Fienberg of The Hollywood Reporter felt while there were `` no superheroes, no mission and no clear bad guy '' in these early episodes, he `` found ( him ) self enjoying quite a bit thanks to the solid introductions to the human side of its characters, an often innovative structure, fine use of its New Orleans backdrop and a few moments of real cleverness. If, on some levels, Cloak & Dagger is oddly sluggish, there 's a lot happening in these early episodes, some of it fun. '' Reviewing the first two episodes, IGN 's Joi Childs awarded the episodes an 8.5 out of 10, noting, `` Tackling a variety of relatable subjects while embracing the thrill of discovering new powers, Cloak & Dagger delivers an emotionally honest and surprisingly resonant premiere. The pacing can feel a bit slower than one might expect or want from a superhero TV show, but thanks to the drama, effects, mystery and chemistry between the main protagonists, the premiere builds a solid foundation for Marvel 's newest series. '' Merrill Barr at Forbes wrote, `` Without question, it can be said Cloak & Dagger plays right into the hand of the audience it 's gaming for. This is one of the darkest and moodiest YA series to ever YA... Unfortunately, the series suffers from the problem many shows of its type do : it takes far longer than it should to dive deep into the meat of its story. '' In comparison to the other Marvel Television series, Barr felt Cloak & Dagger `` exists somewhere between the light - hearted, broad stroke nature of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and very mature dramatic overtones of any of the Netflix series ''. Abraham Riesman of Vulture felt `` there 's a lot going on in Cloak & Dagger, and if it can keep up its pace of invention and revelation, it promises to be your essential superhero watch of the summer. '' He also praised `` Marvel Television 's willingness to boil a superhero concept down to the elements that work best and, beyond that, be purely inventive, '' enjoying the change of location to New Orleans over the New York setting from the comics. For io9, Charles Pulliam - Moore said, `` Cloak & Dagger is n't exactly a show for die - hard comic book purists looking for a live - action translation of the superheroes they love, but that ultimately works out in its favor because that 's not what it 's trying to be. Cloak & Dagger wants you to see the power in and importance of being able to see across differences -- a bit of a cheesy message, perhaps, but one that we could all stand to remind ourselves of more often. '' He was critical of the pacing, a common issue across many of the Marvel Television series, but conceded, while the `` forward momentum from scene to scene is lacking... all of the performances are stellar. '' Giving the series a `` B '', Entertainment Weekly 's Darren Franich was `` pessimistic and optimistic about Cloak & Dagger, and hope the show 's openhearted thoughtfulness can energize its rather bargain - bin super-mythology. '' He felt the series took the `` rough outline '' of the comics `` and cleverly modernizes it in unexpected directions '' and throughout the early episodes the New Orleans location `` finds unexpected ways to root Tyrone and Tandy in the local culture. '' Franich was also critical of the pacing. Giving the first four episodes 2 out of 4 stars, Allison Keene of Collider was more critical of the series. She was also critical of the pacing, called the writing `` shaky '', wished more was done with the New Orleans setting, and felt that attempting to split the early episodes between both Johnson and Bowen, resulted in `` jarring edits, half - baked plots, and quickly - forgotten side characters. '' Analysis Upon announcement, Riesman felt one of the show 's potential strengths was the fact that Marvel had a unique opportunity to tell a story `` without needing to appeal to any kind of rabid fanbase or honor any iconic stories, '' because the characters have neither `` any famous archnemeses, '' nor `` a widely read graphic novel '' that fans would be expecting to see. He concluded saying, `` Cloak & Dagger could be something unique and potentially lovely : an attempt to build a new bit of filmed superhero iconography ( mostly ) from the ground up. There 's so much to mine in this genre. It deals metaphorically with the burdens, risks, and liberations of power -- and it has the storytelling freedoms offered by high - concept science fiction, fantasy, and magical realism.
