Overview
- Scardapane says the show is unlikely to host visits from major MCU film heroes, characterizing it as a localized, street-level story set “downtown” in Hell’s Kitchen.
- Season 2 centers on Mayor Wilson Fisk’s crackdown in New York City, with Scardapane saying that storyline reaches its conclusion this season.
- The season premieres March 24 on Disney+, with Krysten Ritter returning as Jessica Jones and Matthew Lillard debuting as the mysterious Mr. Charles.
- Reflecting on production changes, Scardapane called Season 1 a “cobbled-together Frankenstein” but says the new run will “let rip” in ways the first could not.
- The showrunner expresses mixed feelings about the timely political edge this season but signals a pivot toward a more Frank Miller–inspired, street-level approach afterward.
