AceShowbiz - With a bunch of casting news from Marvel's "Inhumans" and FOX's "X-Men"-themed series in the last few days, it's easy to forget that another Marvel series is currently in the works. Hulu is adapting "Runaways" into a TV show and shooting is currently underway.
Now, some pictures and a video from the set have emerged, giving a first look at the cast in characters. In the images that were apparently taken by fans, the main cast members such as Lyrica Okano (Nico Minoru), Gregg Sulkin (Chase Stein) and Ariela Barer (Gert Yorkes) were seen filming at the Ernest McBride High School in Long Beach, California.
"The Originals" actress Danielle Campbell appears to have a role on the show too, though her casting has not been officially announced.

"Marvel's Runaways" chronicles the story of six diverse teenagers who can barely stand one another but must unite against a common foe - their parents. Sulkin will play Chase Stein, a lacrosse-playing, high school heartthrob. While many write him off as a dumb jock, Stein exhibits flashes of untapped brilliance in engineering, not unlike his wildly successful father.
"Gossip Girl" creator Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage executive produces the pilot alongside Marvel Head of Television Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory. Hulu has not announced a series order for the project.
