Marvel TV Is Developing Separate Disney+ Series From Marvel Studios, Jeph Loeb Says

In an interview with Deadline, Loeb revealed that Marvel TV is working on its own Disney+ shows, separate from the Marvel Studios offerings.
“Well, first of all, I have to make something very clear, which is those are shows that are created and run and the responsibility of the motion picture studio. Secondly, Marvel Television will be doing shows with Disney+, we just haven’t announced what we’re going to do there.”
Loeb also suggested that “the idea of YA, the idea of young heroes was something that got us very excited because it works really well on television,” which is something we’re seeing in Hulu’s Runaways and Freeform’s Cloak and Dagger.
So could this mean that Marvel TV has been tasked with bringing to Disney+ some new street level heroes, or even adapting Marvel Knights? Or could we see a new teen-oriented superhero series? That seems to be what Loeb is hinting at. While these titles won’t generate the same amount of excitement (or likely the same budget) as Marvel Studios shows like Loki or The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, it’s good to know that there are even more Marvel series to look forward to.
