Disney+ Removes Marvel and Pixar Titles Without Warning

Marvel's Runaways, a series about a group of children who discover their parents are super-villains, has been removed from both Disney+ and Hulu without warning.

The series, produced by Marvel Television, was not directly tied to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and was intended to draw a younger audience.

The youngest child recovered was only six months old. The US Marshals also arrested a ‘Top 15 Most Wanted’ couple who fled to Mexico from Washington state with their five children, who they also took into hiding. The operation is the first nationwide missing child operation focused on geographical areas with high clusters of critically missing children.
