Jeph Loeb Explains That CLOAK & DAGGER Exists in The Greater MCU and Has Crossover Potential

First of all, if you haven't started watching Marvel's Cloak & Dagger series yet you need to start. I was already excited about the series before it premiered but it still ended up being so much better than what I expected. The story and the character development is just so strong. If you have started watching, I hope you're enjoying it. 

Cloak & Dagger is the only Marvel series on the Freeform channel, but it still exists within the great Marvel Cinematic Universe. During a recent Reddit AMA with the head of Marvel TV, Jeph Loeb, he talked about the show's connection to the universe and the potential crossover possibilities. In a previous interview with CB, he said:

"Look, it's something that we talk about. A large time, it has to do with scheduling in a way that you're asking a different question that gets me into trouble to say '#itsallconnected.' But it is all connected, in the very basic sense that this is the world that we're living in."

Loeb has now elaborated on that explaining how they go about keeping the series set in the Marvel universe connected:

"One of the things that Marvel is very proud about is we don't have made-up cities, we don't have a fictional kind of world, or police force, or anything else like that. We try to stay within the lanes of what feels like a real show, and that we carry that form show to show, and that there'll be Easter eggs, and there'll be little things along the way.

"I think if you watch the pilot or even seen the trailer, Roxxon plays a very big part in that. Roxxon is a very big entity in any Marvel property that you're using, and Roxxon only exists in the MCU, so, you have to, thereby, go, it is all connected simply because that's one of the very significant points that happens during the show."

Now, even though there's talk of all these shows being connected do you think we'll ever see Cloak & Dagger crossover with any of the other series? Do you even think it should?

Personally, I think the show is great the way it is and it's strong enough to stand on its own without having to include some kind of crossover. I think that doing something like that would almost cheapen the story that they are telling with these fascinating strong characters.
