Just got the Alias omnibus in the mail today. Tearing through it and loving it. Just getting to Purple Man. I've heard terrible things. I can't wait.

Marvel’s ‘Jessica Jones’ Netflix Series Casts Carrie-Anne Moss In Recurring Role

After a tragic ending to her short-lived super hero stint, Jessica Jones is rebuilding her personal life and career as a detective who gets pulled into cases involving people with extraordinary abilities in New York City. Moss plays a no-nonsense woman who could prove a powerful ally to Jessica…if Jessica doesn’t completely alienate her first.

Trinity in MCU :p

edit: beaten like Matrix: Revolutions' critical reception
 
Description is vague, but it doesn't remind me of any particular character who's connected to Jessica in 616. Guess we'll have to wait and see, though it's likely either an original character or a loosely adapted one.

I like Carrie Ann a lot.

Who will they cast as Man Mountain Marko?

LOL I would love it if they did that presidential blackmail story in this just so I could get this scene:

Spider-Woman!

She-Hulk?

Super random and not fitting of the character description or her age.

Madam Hydra maybe?

Eh... doesn't make much sense.

She'd be a better Madame Web if we're talking casting her as someone totally unrelated to who she'll end up playing.

I love her and I love that she's going to get some work that can put her back into the spotlight.

With that said, I have no idea who's supposed to play.

Great to see her on board but yeah, add me to the list of people who have no idea what character she'll play.

Surrogate for J Jonah's wife for Mattie's story?

I don't get the appeal in trying to pigeon hole every casting into an existing character. Isn't that boring? If it's a character who isn't in the comics, why is there a need to try and guess who the character "really is" or who the character is "replacing" or whatever? It could just be a new character they felt was needed to tell the story they wanted in the series. This isn't anything new or unusual!

Because if you can guess what characters they are going to be you can get an idea as to what storylines may follow. Oh Karen Page/ Gwen Stacey are cast? I wonder how many movies/ seasons they will be around for etc.

Oh I understand that, I was talking about the Carrie-Ann Moss casting in particular. But I think I misunderstood what happened, since most people were reacting to the casting without knowing that she is apparently playing a character named Harper, who seems original.

Oh I didn't see the thing about Harper. I keep seeing this as a Daredevil news thread and not a Daredevil and friends news thread.

For ten seconds, it looks good. The costume is working for me, looks pretty homemade. And I liked the camera work, but once again, its too short of a clip to really be making my mind up. Hopefully we get something substantial tomorrow.

...come on, man. A goddamn teaser for a teaser trailer? I want those 15 seconds of my life refunded to me in corn chips.

I can't wait for the announcement of the teaser of the teaser of Jessica Jones.

Maybe by the time Iron Fist is a thing we'll go full meta with ARGs and shit.
