    Marvel's first Netflix series, Daredevil, isn't here yet, but it's never too early to learn about what the future Marvel-Netflix projects have in store for us, right? The second series, Jessica Jones, has already cast Krysten Ritter as its lead character, and now it has been announced that The Matrixactress Carrie-Anne Moss will also be joining the show. According to The Wrap, Jessica Jones' time as a super hero didn't go so well, and now she's focused on being a detective in New York. Moss will be a "no-nonsense" character named Harper. She's described as "a person in a position of authority who could prove a powerful ally to Jessica -- if the titular character doesn't completely alienate her first, that is."

    It was also previously announced that Rachael Taylor will play as Patricia Walker, a.k.a. Hellcat, and David Tennant is the villain Zebediah Killgrave, a.k.a. Purple Man. Jessica Jones will have 13-episodes and The Wrap claims the series will premiere later this year. So, does the addition of Moss get you more excited for the upcoming show?

    Not many characters at Marvel called Harper, maybe she is an original?

    I'm getting an Aria T'Loak vibe from her character description :) If that's the case, I can't wait!

    I was gonna watch either way, because of the whole shared universe thing (which is why I initially continued to watch Agents of SHIELD after the pilot and before Winter Soldier) but David Tennant completely sold me on it.

    Suh-weet! And I hadn't heard about Hellcat, that's fantastic.

    EDIT: Although weirdly I see they're calling Hellcat "Trish" (for Patrisha) instead of "Patty."

    As a fan of Moss, I'm now interested.

    Anyone else feel she would've been a better choice for Maria Hill?

    Yeah she definitely would have been an awesome Maria Hill, but the one they have is pretty bad ass too. My thought on Harper is that she's a superhero with ties to the Avengers. She'll play roughly the same role as Ms Marvel from Alias. Honestly I cannot wait for this show. You've got a wonderful leading lady and Tennant is going to make one hell of a Purple Man.

    Pretty cool.

    I'm not complaining but don't we know more about this show than Daredevil at this point?

    I doubt that. The second was was still good and while the third wasn't as entertaining, they still introduced a lot of cool ideas that could be played with in a fourth film.
