The new trailer proves that, as it was in Season 1, “the powers are a side effect.” Jessica Jones is more than that, and we’re here for it — warts and all.
It’s easy to think that Marvel hasn’t even begun to scratch the surface of the female superhero gamut — indeed, the studio’s range is still severely lacking, and the rest of Phase Three still must change that. But they really did create something special with Jessica Jones a couple of years ago. The Netflix series hit a nail on the head discussing issues like rape and alcoholism against the backdrop of superheroism, successfully tying the gritty real to the insistently fantastical in a way that wasn’t just about yet another white man.
A trailer has dropped in anticipation of the second season of Jessica Jones, and although second seasons of just about any show struggle to find a cohesive footing, that kind of issue doesn’t appear to plague the eponymous superp-owered detective’s new journeys. Jessica Jones, played by the phenomenal Krysten Ritter, is still spiraling out of control, breaking faces, wine glasses, and god knows what else. But the focus is still streamlined on her and what her tumultuous past could draw to the surface.
Watch the trailer below.
