James Marsters, who can currently be seen in the web series Vidiots, will play Victor Stein an engineer/scientist who sounds a bit like Nikolai Tesla in that he has all the answers that could save the world, but he’s particularly harsh when it comes to his son Chase, an athlete who prefers his friends over his father’s demanding wishes.
Runaways centers on six teenagers from different backgrounds who join forces to take down their parents, who have joined together to form a super-team called The Pride.
Victor is married to Janet Stein, an equally brilliant scientist who strives for more out of life, and one who will be played by Major Crimes actress Ever Carradine.
