‘Jessica Jones’ Netflix: NYCC Reveals First Ep Of Krysten Ritter’s Superhero – Plus, Carrie Ann-Moss’ Character Revealed!

The streaming giant and the producers of the biggest superhero adaptations in recent times has been focusing quite a bit on teasing their next television series, "Jessica Jones" on Netflix starring Krysten Ritter, and now as a bonus, those who attended the Marvel panel actually got to see the first full episode in full.

For the past few weeks, "Jessica Jones" Netflix has been teased with numerous short clips where the only character that has spoken is villain Purple Man (David Tennant from "Harry Potter" and "Doctor Who"), only keeping things more interesting.

And, after the audience was first shown the first "Jessica Jones" Netflix episode (which won't hit the mainstream for another month and a half, when the full season premieres on November 20), critics have shown nothing but absolute love for it, with io9 saying that "it looks so good," also talking about the noir element films present in the show.

In the meantime, Vulture's review of the "Jessica Jones" Netflix pilot focuses mostly on the series' portrayal on sexuality in a complex way and steering away from the "vanilla" side of this part of the human experience, as the new show even deals with a subject as sensitive as rape.

According to Screen Rant, besides the screening of "Jessica Jones" Netflix first episode, there was another announcement regarding the second Netflix Marvel series, as producers finally told the world who "The Matrix" actress Carrie-Anne Moss, who had been announced as part of the cast months back, is playing on the series: a gender-bent version of Marvel lawyer Jeryn Hogarth, most associated with Luke Cage and Iron Fist, who's also the first lesbian character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

There are five planned Netflix series set in the MCU, and the 'Jessica Jones' Netflix endeavor is the second one after "Daredevil," which will then be followed by "Luke Cage" and "Iron Fist," all of which will lead to "The Defenders," a street-level Avengers-type of superheroes.
