Marvel's JESSICA JONES Series to Star Krysten Ritter
Marvel has cast Krysten Ritter in the title role of their upcoming Netflix series Jessica Jones. You might know Ritter from projects such as Veronica Mars, Breaking Bad, The Blacklist, and Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23. She definitely seems to fit the character's personality, which is the most important aspect to nail down.
Jessica Jones is described as being “cynical, sardonic and tough-as-nails, but innately cool and sexy.” She’s a superhero who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, and that leads to her giving up the superhero life and opening up her own detective agency where she helps people and assists other superheroes.
Netflix is developing three other series with Marvel — Daredevil (currently in production), Iron Fist, and Luke Cage. These four series will lead into a Netflix event called The Defenders. The series will begin roll out in 2015, and I’m stoked to see how they turn out.
