The first batch of official photos from Netflix and Marvel’s Jessica Jones have been released. No one looks happy.


The series will follow Jones as she recovers from a disastrous end to her superhero career and starts a detective agency, so being serious makes sense. In the photos we’ve also got a glimpses of Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) with her best friend Trish “Patsy” Walker (Rachael Taylor); Luke Cage (Mike Colter) tending bar; the potential Jones ally Harper (Carrie Ann Moss); and, of course, Kilgrave, a.k.a. the supervillain the Purple Man (David Tennant).

There’s not a lot you can tell from these photos, other than that Ritter’s got a great thousand yard stare going on. And all of these characters are looking pensively at something just off-camera.



Jessica’s leather jacket is great, but I think Tennant’s hair is winning these photos. You almost don’t notice the purple scarf there to remind us of the comic book character’s name.
