Jeph Loeb, the head of the production of series like Luke Cage and Jessica Jones, which aired on Netflix, as well as The Runaways, which aired on Hulu, will depart from Marvel. He is currently on the projects for a smooth transition. Under the leadership of Loeb, Marvel TV had limited integration with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Fans are happy to know that now this will not be the case, as the absorption of the Marvel TV into the Marvel Film Studio on Netflix will give more liberty to the TV shows. However, nothing has been confirmed yet, as the official statement from Marvel is yet to come. This was followed by the news that confirmed the cancellation of several TV shows as well as one of their oldest shows, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
