The Alanis (2017)small screen is about to get even more superheroes, but this time they're on Freeform (sorry, Netflix and CW).

Like The Defenders, Marvel's New Warriorswill focus on the everyday struggle of living with superpowers, describing its six young protagonists as "not quite super, not yet heroes."
“Freeform’s mission is to deliver incredible content to young adults, and Marvel Television seamlessly aligns with that mission," added Karey Burke, executive vice president, Programming and Development, Freeform. "We couldn't be more proud to collaborate with them on Marvel’s New Warriors.”
The show's 10-episode order will debut in 2018.
