With just two episodes of Cloak & Dagger remaining, it was announced yesterday during the show’s San Diego Comic-Con panel that Freeform has officially ordered a second season of the Marvel series; here’s the official poster and announcement video, which promises that “Season 2 will be Mayhem”.
As fans of Cloak & Dagger will know, Mayhem is the alter-ego of Detective Brigid O’Reilly (played in the series by Emma Lahana), who is reborn as a merciless vigilante after being killed in the line of duty. While the above doesn’t exactly confirm this storyline will be playing out in the second season, it’s certainly a rather large hint.
Before we get ahead of ourselves, we do still have two episodes of the first season remaining, and Marvel and Freeform also unveiled a sneak peek trailer teasing the final two episodes; check it out here…

“Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger” is a coming-of-age series based on the beloved Marvel characters. Tandy Bowen and Tyrone Johnson come from starkly different backgrounds, each growing up with a secret they never dared share with another soul.
Once a privileged little girl, Tandy Bowen watched as her family was destroyed by a disastrous storm that uprooted her life. Now in her late teens, an unexpected encounter with a boy named Tyrone sparks a life changing event.
Young Tyrone Johnson wanted nothing more than to prove he was fearless. But when everything he held close was taken away, life taught Tyrone to be afraid. Now older and more sheltered, Tyrone closes himself off. But when he meets a girl named Tandy his life changes forever.
Cloak & Dagger airs on Thursdays on Freeform.
