You've probably seen the Marvel Rising one-shots in stores this summer. Now, Marvel has produced a TV-movie, airing on Disney Channel, as they may be planning a new TV franchise.
Marvel Rising: Secret Warriors tells the story of how S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Daisy Johnson, aka Quake (Chloe Bennet, reprising her role from Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) came to form a team with a group of young heroes, including the current Ms. Marvel, Squirrel Girl, America Chavez, and Patriot. The final member of the team, Inferno (Tyler Posey, ex-Teen Wolf), is added when the team, aided by Carol Danvers, the current Captain Marvel of the MCU, rescues him from some Kree nasties.
Former AT&T pitchwoman Milana Vayntrub voices Squirrel Girl, the same role she'll play in New Warriors, debuting next year.
Here's a trailer.
For some reason, Marvel opted for the Americanized anime look that worked for DC's Teen Titans 15 years ago, but not as pronounced. The Initiation prequel shorts have a similar look, and we'll look at that another time.
Rating: B--.
