Isham’s recent films include the Ben Affleck action drama “The Accountant” and the upcoming film projects include Christopher Jenkins’ “Duck Duck Goose”, an adaptation of Lauren Kate’s #1 New York Times bestseller Fallen and “Megan Leavy”, the story of a young Marine Corporal whose discipline and relationship with her military combat dog saved many in Iraq.
“Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger” is the story of Tandy Bowen (Olivia Holt) and Tyrone Johnson (Aubrey Joseph) – two teenagers from very different backgrounds, who find themselves burdened and awakened to newly acquired superpowers which are mysteriously linked to one another.
Tandy can emit light daggers and Tyrone has the ability to engulf others in darkness. They quickly learn they are better together than apart, but their feelings for each other make their already complicated world even more challenging.
The series stars Olivia Holt, Aubrey Joseph, Andrea Roth, Gloria Reuben, Miles Mussenden, Carl Lundstedt, James Saito and J.D. Evermore.
Cloak & Dagger‘s 10 one-hour episodes are slated to debut early 2018.
