Jessica Jones' Season 2 to premiere on March 8


Our favourite hard drinking Private Investigator and the strongest Defender, Jessica Jones will be back to our screen on March 8, 2018 for the highly anticipated second season of one of best Netflix series, Jessica Jones. Even though the second season of the critically acclaimed Marvel Netflix show is just a few months away, the show runners has not yet revealed much details about the new season.

However, according to the official synopsis, it seems that Jessica will still be dealing with her history even after the death of Kilgrave, who was the main antagonist in the first season of the show. The official synopsis reads, "New York City private investigator Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) is beginning to put her life back together after murdering her tormenter, Kilgrave. Now known throughout the city as a super-powered killer, a new case makes her reluctantly confront who she really is while digging deeper into her past to explore the reasons why."

The new set images released gives a clear look at the titular heroine, Jessica Jones. In addition to that, we also get a brief glimpse at the supporting characters of season 2. Janet McTeer, who plays a crucial mystery character in the second season of Jessica Jones can be seen talking with the Private Detective. The show runners have already hinted that the character played by Janet McTeer will change the world of Jessica Jones and her allies.


In one of the set images, we can also see the sinister Kilgrave played by David Tennant, who is popularly known as the Purple Man among comic readers and Marvel fans. However, it has been reported that Kilgrave  will only be appearing in a single episode, as a flashback or as a manifestation in Jessica’s mind, as he was killed in the first season of the show.

The showrunner, Melissa Rosenberg said, "I will always use as much as I can from the books, but unfortunately we've gone away from that mythology. The MCU is very different, and we're probably not going to be able to do parallel storylines. But I take every little piece I can [from the comics], because it's so good." She added, "I just want to continue with Jessica's character – she's very damaged, and the damage goes beyond Kilgrave, so there's a lot to mine from in her backstory and her present day situation."
