Jessica Jones: New Teaser’s Bad Reputation
By Steve Lam
Hot off the heels of the first teaser for Netflix’s Jessica Jones, we have a second international teaser from Netflix Japan which was released via their Twitter feed. Though the first teaser was somewhat subdued, this new one gives us a glimpse of the tone and grit of the upcoming thrilling series. After coaxing a jukebox to play Bad Reputation by Joan Jett, we see our protagonist’s own “reputation” lying about on the floor of a bar.
Jessica Jones – Official Synopsis: Ever since her short-lived stint as a Super Hero ended in tragedy, Jessica Jones has been rebuilding her personal life and career as a hot-tempered, sardonic, badass private detective in Hell’s Kitchen, New York City. Plagued by self-loathing, and a wicked case of PTSD, Jessica battles demons from within and without, using her extraordinary abilities as an unlikely champion for those in need… especially if they’re willing to cut her a check.
Netflix’s Jessica Jones is set to premiere all episodes on Friday, November 20, 2015. The series was developed by Melissa Rosenberg, and will star Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones, David Tennant as Kilgrave, Mike Colter as Luke Cage, Rachael Taylor as Trish “Patsy” Walker, Carrie Anne Moss as Harper, Eka Darville as Malcolm, Erin Moriarty as Hope, and Wil Traval as an NYPD officer.
Jessica Jones is one of four Marvel/Netflix shows centered around street-level events taking place in New York. The other three are Daredevil, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist. Like the cinematic universe, all four characters from each show will later converge together in a miniseries event called The Defenders — another superhero team akin to The Avengers.
