Hulu’s new Marvel series RUNAYWAYS probably exists somewhere in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though where exactly it’s connected is still a mystery.

Marvel TV boss Jeph Loeb played coy when asked about where the teen drama from Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage fits in to the MCU.

“It all lives in the same world,” the executive producer said. “How it’s connected and where it’s connected, it remains to be seen. Right now we’re trying to tell a great story Josh and Stephanie have crafted.”

Loeb did reference Iron Man, which seems to indicate the show will be part of the MCU rather than the Fox Marvel universe of X-Men and Legion or the Sony Marvel universe of Spider-Man.

The series follows a group of misfit teenagers who must band together after discovering their parents are secretly super villains.

“We didn’t view it as a superhero show,” said Schwartz who, with Savage, previously created seminal teen drama The O.C.. “We see it as a coming of age that exists within a Marvel world.”

Runaways premieres November 21 on Hulu.
