Cloak and Dagger composer steps out of the darkness and into the light!

Two days ago, electronic music innovator, jazz artist and prolific film and television composer Mark Isham officially announced on his Instagram account (via Film Music Reporter) that he will be scoring Freeform's Cloak and Dagger television series -- which will air in early 2018.

When it comes to film scores, Isham for creating memorable scores for Crash, A River Runs Through It, Bobby, and The Black Dahlia. As for television, Isham scores ABC's fairy tale-based series Once Upon a Time, and composed music for American Crime and Blood & Oil.

It is a coming-of-age series based on the beloved Marvel characters. Tandy Bowen (Olivia Holt) and Tyrone Johnson (Aubrey Joseph) come from starkly different backgrounds, each growing up with a secret they never dared share with another soul.

Once a privileged little girl, Tandy Bowen watched as her family was destroyed by a disastrous storm that uprooted her life. Now in her late teens, an unexpected encounter with a boy named Tyrone sparks a life changing event.

Young Tyrone Johnson wanted nothing more than to prove he was fearless. But when everything he held close was taken away, life taught Tyrone to be afraid. Now older and more sheltered, Tyrone closes himself off. But when he meets a girl named Tandy his life changes forever.

The cast also includes Andrea Roth (Blue Bloods) as Melissa Bowen, Tandy's mom; Gloria Reuben (ER) as Tyrone's mother, Adina Johnson; Miles Mussenden (Bloodline) as Tyrone's father, Michael Johnson; Carl Lundstedt (Grey's Anatomy) as Liam, Tandy's partner in crime; James Saito (Life of Pi) as Dr. Bernard Sanjo, and J.D. Evermore (The Walking Dead) as Detective Connors.
