Although reports had previously confirmed Ritter’s involvement, the actress recently spoke candidly with ScreenRant about stepping back into the role of Jessica Jones. While she refrained from revealing plot specifics, Ritter expressed enthusiasm about revisiting the character amid the transition from Netflix to Disney+. She described the experience as “very exciting” and noted the expanded storyline and gritty tone of the series.
“I’m thrilled to be back in Jessica’s boots. There’s more story for her and it’s really exciting. Oh, it’s gritty. It feels big too. The crew’s amazing. I’ve had an amazing experience. I can’t say anything, but I love being with Charlie Cox. It was as if no time had passed. Like, my first day, I was looking around like we’re back. But juxtaposing it with Mia and Jessica has been really creatively fulfilling for me as an artist and just what a big, big banner year I’m having. I think the fans are going to be very, very thrilled. We’re doing some cool stuff.”
