Following the announcement earlier this week of the cast for Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger , Marvel has made another big reveal about their TV productions with the lineup for the title heroes of their series Marvel’s Runaways ! The Marvel’s Runaways cast includes: Ariela Barer as Gert Yorkes, a purple-haired, bespectacled, contemporary riot grrrl. Never passing up a moment to stand on a soapbox, Gert sometimes wields her persona as a brash social justice warrior to mask her true feelings.
