After announcing the teen ensemble for\u00a0Marvel’s Runaways\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>TV series, the studio has now confirmed who will be playing the parents that make up the sinister organisation known as The Pride.<\/p>\n

So, from the official Marvel <\/a>website, here’s the list of grown-ups set to appear in\u00a0Marvel’s Runaways\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>and the characters they’re playing (obviously there are round about two parents to most teens\u00a0so this is a damn long lost):<\/p>\n

Ryan Sands<\/strong> (Hat Hair<\/strong><\/em>, The Wire<\/strong><\/em>) as Geoffrey Wilder<\/strong> \u2013 is a man defined by the grueling path he\u2019s taken to achieve his self-made success. A hulking presence, Geoffrey can effortlessly shift from approachable father to intimidating strategist with his son Alex.<\/p>\n

Angel Parker <\/strong>(The People v. OJ Simpson: American Crime Story<\/strong><\/em>, The Strain<\/strong><\/em>) as Catherine Wilder<\/strong> \u2013 a successful lawyer, is deliberate and calculating in both her words and actions. But when it comes to her family, she\u2019s fiercely loyal and a loving mother to her son Alex.<\/p>\n

Brittany Ishibashi<\/strong> (This Is Us<\/strong><\/em>, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows<\/strong><\/em>) as Tina Minoru<\/strong> \u2013 a perfectionist \u201ctiger mom.\u201d In her professional life, she is a brilliant innovator and ruthless CEO. Emotionally, she is less confident, often shying away from difficult conversations with her daughter Nico and careful to avoid explicit displays of her feelings.<\/p>\n

James Yaegashi<\/strong> (Breakfast at Tiffany\u2019s<\/strong> <\/em>on Broadway, Madame Secretary<\/strong><\/em>) as Robert Minoru<\/strong> \u2013 a gentle and brilliant beta, the Woz to his wife\u2019s Jobs. Warm and feeling, Robert sometimes struggles with being married to a woman who so forcefully barricades her emotions while caring about Nico.<\/p>\n

Kevin Weisman<\/strong> (Hello Ladies<\/strong><\/em>, Alias<\/strong><\/em>) as Dale Yorkes<\/strong> \u2013 a beardy, dad-core bioengineer. Incredibly science-minded, he has a deep love for his family but oftentimes falls short at knowing the right things to say to Gert.<\/p>\n

Brigid Brannagh <\/strong>(Army Wives<\/strong><\/em>, True Colours<\/strong><\/em>) as Stacey Yorkes<\/strong> \u2013 an absent-minded and professorial bioengineer. Perpetually dawning Birkenstocks and a messy bun, Stacey utilizes a progressive approach to her parenting style to Gert.<\/p>\n

Annie Wersching<\/strong> (Timeless<\/strong><\/em>,\u00a0The Vampire Diaries<\/strong><\/em>) as Leslie Dean<\/strong> \u2013 a complicated beauty, is a poised and skilled leader. Clear-minded, focused, and charismatic, Leslie draws in devoted allies and followers who are taken by her success and charm, particularly with her daughter Karolina.<\/p>\n

Kip Pardue<\/strong> (Remember the Titans<\/strong><\/em>, Ray Donovan<\/strong><\/em>) as Frank Dean<\/strong> \u2013 a former teen star who rode a short-lived movie career and is now teeming with insecurity. Floundering in his professional career as an actor, Frank is seeking to renew purpose in his life while being a father to Karolina.<\/p>\n

James Marsters<\/strong> (Buffy the Vampire Slayer<\/strong><\/em>, Angel<\/strong><\/em>) as Victor Stein<\/strong> \u2013 an engineering genius who may just save the word from itself. Electric cars, space travel; the military and NASA both look to him for answers. As a father to Chase, Victor has lofty expectations for his son, and when they aren\u2019t met, his retribution can be fierce.<\/p>\n

Ever Carradine<\/strong> (The Handmaids Tale<\/strong><\/em>, Goliath<\/strong><\/em>) as Janet Stein<\/strong> \u2013 a perfect PTA mom. Harboring a brilliant mind of her own, she has made deep sacrifices for her husband\u2019s world-changing career. Though she hides it for the wellbeing of her son Chase, Janet longs for more from her life.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the show’s executive producers Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage said: “This cast is an abundance of riches. We are so excited to have assembled our PRIDE, though for the fate of humanity we should be very concerned\u2026”<\/p>\n
