This series has the New Warriors be formed in the aftermath of Captain America: Civil War (2016). In the comics, the New Warriors started off the Civil War event when they accidentally killed 612 people in Stamford Connecticut (including their own members other than Speedball.) in a superhero fight, thus causing the need for the SuperHuman Registration Act which divided Iron Man and Captain America.
This version of the team will be an amalgamation of The New Warriors and The Great Lakes Avengers as Mister Immortal and Squirrel Girl are/were both members of that team, not The New Warriors along with Doorman, Big Bertha, and Flatman.
This series is set to be a comedy, in contrast to most of the Marvel Cinematic Universe features (and also to how the New Warriors have been in the comics after the Civil War).
Both Anna Kendrick and Shannon Purser were interested in playing Doreen Green/Squirrel Girl.
On whether the network would consider spinoff series for each of the characters on the New Warriors team, in a similar fashion to Marvel's Netflix series, Burke felt they "absolutely" could given the characters Marvel chose "are all really singular and could each carry the show that they're on. They're bound together ... for as long as we choose with this show but it's conceptually tailor-made for spinoffs." When the series was no longer at Freeform, it was still considered to be likely to produce multiple spin-offs in a similar model to the Netflix shows.
By August 2016, Marvel Television had developed a series centered on the New Warriors and began offering it to cable networks and streaming outlets. In April 2017, New Warriors received a series order from Freeform, with Biegel joining as showrunner and writing the first script. By that November, Freeform was no longer airing the series, and it was being shopped around.
In June 2018, Jeph Loeb said Marvel was still looking for a network to air the series.
Discussing potential connections to Cloak & Dagger in April 2017, Burke said that the two comic properties are "not particularly connected" given "their tones are so wildly different", adding, "There are many degrees of separation with where they fall in the Marvel universe. But anything is possible with Marvel." In July, Loeb said there were no plans to crossover, nor to crossover across networks with the similarly themed Marvel's Runaways on Hulu. He added that Marvel wanted the series to find its footing before further connecting with other elements of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, saying "You'll see things that comment on each other; we try to touch base wherever we can... It's being aware of it and trying to find a way for it to be able to discuss in a way that makes sense."
