Jessica Jones Gets a Second Season Plus Punisher and Iron First News
During their premiere announcement, Netflix has revealed that Jessica Jones will be returning to the streaming service for a second season.
This announcement shouldn’t be much of a surprise since the first season left a lot of plot lines dangling, and there’s so much to flesh out. The series has received critical praise.
The first season of Jessica Jones is part of an audacious plan between Marvel and Netflix that brings Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist to the small screen and the four will band together in to a Defenders television event.
During this same announcement, Netflix content chief Ted Sarandos said that the company still plans to follow up Luke Cage with Iron Fist and that casting is “in progress.” It’s not clear as to when the second season of Jessica Jones will air or what order the remaining series will be other than Daredevil‘s second season is set for this March with Luke Cage likely being later in the year.
Sarandos was also asked about the rumored Punisher television series that was a “definite” according to other sites (stop falling for clickbait people!).
Saranados said:
Any character that’s in there is on the table … It’s always possible. All the characters in the universe could also spin out. Right now, these are produced at the scale of a major film, so there are long production times and long post times. In some case, when we have character crossover, it makes it more difficult to manage production. It’s not the goal to put out more than one or two out a year.
Two shows a year… it’ll be a bit before The Defenders I guess. The Punisher debuts in the second season of Daredevil.
