Krysten Ritter will reprise her role as Jessica Jones<\/a> in season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again<\/a><\/em>, Disney announced Tuesday at its upfronts presentations, according to Variety<\/a> report from the event. The return of Ritter\u2019s version of Jones will come nearly a decade after her most recent on-screen appearance as the character in Netflix\u2019s The Defenders<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Ritter starred as Jessica Jones, a former superhero with PTSD who starts her own detective agency, Alias Investigations, for three seasons when Netflix was making street-level Marvel superhero shows. Ritter\u2019s Jones also appeared in The Defenders<\/em>, a mini-series that brought together Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Danny \u201cIron Fist\u201d Rand to battle criminal organization the Hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s so great to be back, returning to Jessica after three seasons and \u2018The Defenders\u2019 and now joining the MCU,\u201d Ritter said, according to Variety\u2019s account of Disney\u2019s presentation. \u201cI\u2019m so excited to bring back this iconic character, and without giving too much away, there is much more in store for Jessica Jones. This is going to be an incredible season!\u201d<\/p>\n

Daredevil: Born Again<\/em> season 2 will see Matt Murdock\/Daredevil rallying an army of vigilantes and police officers to take down mayor Wilson Fisk and his anti-vigilante task force. Having the super-powered Jones on his side would obviously be a boon for Murdock; he\u2019ll likely have Frank Castle\/Punisher at his disposal, but whether any other<\/em> Defenders are available to pitch in is unclear. Luke Cage actor Mike Colter has said<\/a> he \u201cwould love to explore\u201d a return to the MCU, as has Iron Fist actor Finn Jones. \u201cI\u2019m very aware of the critiques of the character and my role in it. My response to that is, \u2018Give me a f*cking chance, man,\u2019\u201d Jones reportedly said earlier this year<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019m here and I\u2019m ready, and I wanna prove people wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

Season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again<\/em> is expected to debut on Disney Plus in early 2026<\/a>. Confirmed to return in the second season are Charlie Cox\u2019s Daredevil, Vincent D\u2019Onofrio\u2019s Kingpin, Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, Wilson Bethel as Bullseye, Clark Johnson as Cherry, Genneya Walton as BB Urich, and Michael Gandolfini as Daniel Blake. Elden Henson will also return as Foggy Nelson\u2026 somehow<\/a>.<\/p>\n
