More Grit Than Netflix Daredevil？ Jessica Jones Thinks So...

WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.099
Daredevil. Well, kind of. Yes. I mean, technically,

00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:11.220
yes, but Jessica Jones. So Kirsten Ritter, obviously

00:00:11.220 --> 00:00:13.460
the actress that played Jessica Jones, did an

00:00:13.460 --> 00:00:16.839
exclusive interview with Screen Rant where she

00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:20.320
went over her, kind of provide some insight in

00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:22.839
her upcoming role in Daredevil born again season

00:00:22.839 --> 00:00:27.239
two. And this got me a little excited. So obviously

00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:31.359
she's not allowed to say too much about what's

00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:33.880
coming up. Or the Marvel snipers will get her.

00:00:34.380 --> 00:00:37.740
Yeah, she'll be done. And for those of you that

00:00:37.740 --> 00:00:40.200
don't know, she has been pretty vocal about,

00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:42.380
you know, if given the chance, she would come

00:00:42.380 --> 00:00:45.899
back as Jessica Jones. So she's not going to

00:00:45.899 --> 00:00:49.259
risk anything here. And we have seen some leaked

00:00:49.259 --> 00:00:54.380
set photos of her with Charlie Cox. Right. Yeah.

00:00:55.140 --> 00:00:58.039
which she's, she's recently said that she loves

00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:00.899
working with him. She said, seeing him again

00:01:00.899 --> 00:01:04.019
was like just picking up right where their friendship

00:01:04.019 --> 00:01:07.159
left off. Like, you know, it was just last week

00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:09.019
that they hung out. So really, really, really

00:01:09.019 --> 00:01:15.420
cool there. But she stated that the biggest difference

00:01:15.420 --> 00:01:18.719
between Netflix and Disney is that this time

00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:25.890
around the tone with Disney is quote, And that

00:01:25.890 --> 00:01:28.909
she thinks, quote, I think the fans are going

00:01:28.909 --> 00:01:32.010
to be very, very thrilled. We're doing some really

00:01:32.010 --> 00:01:35.829
cool stuff. End quote. And that got me a little

00:01:35.829 --> 00:01:41.030
excited. Um, I, for one of like, I haven't read

00:01:41.030 --> 00:01:44.670
really any of the Jessica Jones comics, but I

00:01:44.670 --> 00:01:47.950
have like researched, um, when her show first

00:01:47.950 --> 00:01:50.409
kind of aired what this character was about.

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:54.439
And it gets pretty dark. So this is this is where

00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:57.900
I'm confused. Right. Did you watch the Netflix

00:01:57.900 --> 00:02:04.560
Jessica Jones? Yeah. OK. Now. The first season

00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:08.759
of the Netflix, Jessica Jones. Dives into subjects

00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:13.379
of abusive relationships. Yep. Sexual assault,

00:02:13.939 --> 00:02:21.849
manipulation, narcissism, like alcoholism. Right.

00:02:23.129 --> 00:02:29.889
Abuse. Like. If she's saying season two is gritty

00:02:29.889 --> 00:02:35.770
compared to the Netflix version, like. That's

00:02:35.770 --> 00:02:37.830
why I was making faces when you describe that,

00:02:37.849 --> 00:02:42.530
I was like, wait, what? Because. The fucking

00:02:42.530 --> 00:02:46.949
Netflix version was not by any stretch of the

00:02:46.949 --> 00:02:51.169
imagination, sunshine and rainbows. No, right.

00:02:51.169 --> 00:02:55.590
It was not a bright happy superhero show Right,

00:02:55.930 --> 00:03:02.030
so What could they do that would make it more

00:03:02.030 --> 00:03:11.169
gritty than the Netflix version So If I recall

00:03:11.169 --> 00:03:15.810
correctly her character is mind -controlled and

00:03:15.810 --> 00:03:19.469
spent I want to say like a few years essentially

00:03:19.469 --> 00:03:23.349
being a sex slave. Slash. Enforcer slave. Yeah,

00:03:23.430 --> 00:03:26.990
for the purple man. And so she did a lot of sexual

00:03:26.990 --> 00:03:31.069
stuff there. And then he forced her to actually

00:03:31.069 --> 00:03:34.430
kill somebody, which obviously goes against superhero

00:03:34.430 --> 00:03:36.710
code. And that is why we see her just really

00:03:36.710 --> 00:03:41.069
so kind of messed up, you know, obviously very

00:03:41.069 --> 00:03:46.710
damaged. So you can go. I feel like with Jessica

00:03:46.710 --> 00:03:48.990
Jones, you could go really dark. Like like you

00:03:48.990 --> 00:03:51.949
mentioned, her character is not sunshine and

00:03:51.949 --> 00:03:56.310
rainbows. This is a story about abuse and drug

00:03:56.310 --> 00:04:00.430
problems. So is she saying this is going to be

00:04:00.430 --> 00:04:04.729
darker than the Netflix version? Is that what

00:04:04.729 --> 00:04:08.509
we're putting out there, Miss Ritter? Yeah, I

00:04:08.509 --> 00:04:12.050
mean, that's what that's what she said. So. You

00:04:12.050 --> 00:04:16.199
know, if Disney actually does it like. My hat

00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:19.000
goes off a little mouse going back to daredevil

00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:22.740
born again when they finally said, okay We we

00:04:22.740 --> 00:04:24.959
brought Charlie Cox in right they brought him

00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:27.620
in in spider -man no way home, right? And we

00:04:27.620 --> 00:04:29.939
all were like, oh look, it's Charlie Cox's daredevil,

00:04:30.060 --> 00:04:32.660
but we were all like multiverse. Yeah, whatever

00:04:32.660 --> 00:04:37.519
When they first announced born again I think

00:04:37.519 --> 00:04:39.420
everybody was worried that the house of mouse

00:04:39.420 --> 00:04:41.540
was gonna Disney it up a little bit and it wasn't

00:04:41.540 --> 00:04:44.779
gonna be as dark as the original Netflix show

00:04:45.259 --> 00:04:48.339
I think when when daredevil born again season

00:04:48.339 --> 00:04:51.540
one came out, I think we were all pleasantly

00:04:51.540 --> 00:04:58.220
surprised From how they handled daredevil punisher

00:04:58.220 --> 00:05:03.459
like they did not Sanitize it I guess is the

00:05:03.459 --> 00:05:06.759
word that I want to use right. This was not happy

00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:12.500
daredevil right This was it was still dark. It

00:05:12.500 --> 00:05:17.509
was still gritty And so so good on Disney on

00:05:17.509 --> 00:05:22.089
holding to that from the old style. But again,

00:05:22.350 --> 00:05:24.610
with her going, this one's grittier. I'm like,

00:05:24.709 --> 00:05:36.209
how? How? What are you going to do, Disney? Yeah,

00:05:36.209 --> 00:05:41.089
I don't know. I mean, look, I. I liked Boarding

00:05:41.089 --> 00:05:43.350
Against Season 1. I've seen the set photos with

00:05:43.350 --> 00:05:44.829
Christian Ritter for Boarding Against Season

00:05:44.829 --> 00:05:47.709
2. I'm very much looking forward to it. I'm glad

00:05:47.709 --> 00:05:49.290
they went right into production because I'm sick

00:05:49.290 --> 00:05:51.370
of waiting three years between streaming seasons.

00:05:52.750 --> 00:05:54.990
Right? So the fact that they went Daredevil Season

00:05:54.990 --> 00:05:57.449
1, start production, and we're going to get Daredevil

00:05:57.449 --> 00:06:00.410
Season 2 less than a year from the air date of

00:06:00.410 --> 00:06:05.990
Daredevil Season 1, I think it's great. But it

00:06:05.990 --> 00:06:07.649
makes you feel better to know that they're going

00:06:07.649 --> 00:06:17.029
to stick with it. Man, I am yawning today. Hi,

00:06:17.470 --> 00:06:21.410
folks. What do you think? Are you looking forward

00:06:21.410 --> 00:06:24.110
to Daredevil season two? Is there a way to make

00:06:24.110 --> 00:06:27.230
the Jessica Jones show any grinier than it already

00:06:27.230 --> 00:06:29.470
was? Let us know what you think down in the comments

00:06:29.470 --> 00:06:29.910
