We knew it was coming, but we finally have our first look at Krystn Ritter’s return to the MCU as super-powered PI Jessica Jones, thanks to EW.
Her return will see her team up with her Defenders co-star, Charlie Cox, in the highly anticipated Daredevil: Born Again season 2.
“We’ve been really waiting for this opportunity for so long now to put these two on screen together and have more fun with them,” Cox says of Ritter’s return.
The duo appeared in standalone shows and then in The Defenders when Netflix was producing the MCU live-action shows, but when Marvel took the shows back, it seemed like it took forever before we got a new Daredevil series last year, and now it seems we might be getting the whole gang back together.
The new images also give us a look at Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, returning with a new hairdo. We also have had it confirmed that Elden Henson will also returns as Foggy Nelson, but there are no images of that.
We also get a look at Lili Taylor as Governor Marge McCaffrey, along with Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin/Wilson Fisk, Ayelet Zurer as Vanessa Fisk and, most excitingly, Matthew Lillard’s MCU debut as the mysterious and powerful Mr Charles.
Missing from the season is Jon Berthal’s Frank Castle/Punisher, but showrunner Brad Winderbaum reveals that “The Punisher TV special really does connect into the time and place that Daredevil: Born Again season 2 takes place.”
So, rest-assured, Punisher isn’t too far away.
Daredevil: Born Again returns in March on Disney+.
Thoughts? I know you have them and I wanna hear ’em all!

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
