Marvel's Cloak & Dagger has officially been cancelled by network Freeform after two seasons, reports Deadline.

I.E.L.D. With Feige seemingly now in the place Loeb stood, it's possible that some higher-up at Marvel, Disney, or Freeform decided to pull the plug on Cloak and Dagger since the series may not fit into Feige's overall grand plan of crossing the small-screen Marvel world into the big-screen MCU.
