The ABC Marvel drama, which is currently finishing out its sixth season, will call it quits after next season, Marvel TV boss Jeph Loeb tells Deadline. “When you know that’s what you’re doing, you can take greater risks, of life and death,” he says. “Those kinds of decisions suddenly now are real on the table because you’re not playing how do we undo this when we get to the next season. You’re playing that this is going to be the end of the story.” Loeb also promises that Season 6 ends "really delightfully. That's all I can say. Going into Season 7, when you know you only have 13 more stories, you really do get a chance to see what that writers’ room is going to do when they can do anything. It was the best kind of creative situation." Loeb adds that announcing the final season early gives the show a chance to "end on our terms."
