Krysten Ritter Teases Possible Marvel Return
With Charlie Cox set to reprise his role as Matt Murdock/Daredevil in the upcoming Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again, many fans are hoping that his fellow Defenders will soon follow him back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
While Daredevil: Born Again was originally envisioned as a reboot of the popular Daredevil series that ran on Netflix from 2015 through 2018, things changed during last year’s Hollywood strikes.
During the downtime afforded by the strikes, Kevin Feige and other Marvel executives watched the nine completed episodes of Daredevil: Born Agan and reportedly decided that the show was not working.
A Major Change
Since then, Marvel has decided to tie Daredevil: Born Again directly into the original Daredevil series. This change has resulted in familiar faces, including Jon Bernthal (Punisher), Deborah Ann Woll (Karen), and Elden Henson (Foggy) signing on to reprise their Daredevil roles, and Marvel deeming the entire Defenders saga canon.
With the Defenders seemingly back on the table, many fans have held out hope that more of the Netflix superheroes could return.
Will We See Jessica Jones Again?
In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Krysten Ritter, who portrayed Jessica Jones in the Netflix Marvel universe, revealed that if given the opportunity, she would love to reprise her role.
“One hundred percent [I would return as Jessica Jones]. I am ready, and I would, of course, be there in a heartbeat. She’s a character who I absolutely love, and she was a part of my life for so long,” she explained.
“I played that character for five years, and she’s a character who’s very important to me and many women and men. So if the opportunity calls, I may or may not have an extra jacket already.”
While it remains to be seen what Marvel’s plans are for the other Defenders, with Daredevil: Born Again on the horizon, there is seemingly an opportunity for Ritter to get her wish and Jessica Jones to return.
