Marvel's long-discussed "Cloak and Dagger" television adaptation has been given a straight-to-series order by Freeform, the cable channel previously known as ABC Family.
Variety characterizes the series as a "superhero love story" based on the comic book characters created by Bill Mantlo and artist Ed Hannigan.
"Cloak and Dagger" will center on Tandy Bowen and Tyrone Johnson, teenagers from different backgrounds who grapple with newly acquired superpowers -- Tandy can emit daggers of light, while Tyrone can engulf others in darkness -- even as they fall in love.
