Check Out The Full Synopsis For Marvel & Netflix's A.K.A. JESSICA JONES
Some spy pics from the set aside, it's been a while since we've had anything official from the second of Marvel's Netflix shows. But now a new synopsis has found its way online, and it gives us a much better idea of what we can expect when A.K.A. Jessica Jones hits our screens...
A brand new synopsis for A.K.A. Jessica Jones has been revealed thanks to an Amazon Listing for the series' companion book, which won't actually be released until November -- a month before the show is expected to première. As you can see it doesn't really provide anything new plot wise, but it does serve as a pretty detailed character bio for the titular hero, who'll be played by Breaking Bad's Krysten Ritter.
"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."
So nothing about any of the other characters (Luke Cage, Purple Man etc), but it sounds as if they're sticking pretty close to the Jessica Jones of Brian Michael Bendis' Alias comic at any rate. Hopefully this means our first official image from the show is just around the corner. A.K.A. Jessica Jones also stars David Tennant (Kilgrave), Mike Colter (Luke Cage), Rachael Taylor (Patricia “Trish” Walker), and Carrie-Anne Moss.
