The villainous Kilgrave will not make it easy for Jessica Jones to forget her past and rebuild her life as a private investigator in Hell's Kitchen.
The latest teaser for "Marvel's Jessica Jones" shows Jones (Krysten Ritter) pinning a collection of surveillance photos to her office wall at Alias Investigation. Kilgrave's (David Tennant) voice haunts her as he reveals that he knows "everything" and his face appears on the wall after she walks out.
"Jessica, I know your secrets. I know about your friends. About your gifts," Jones hears his voice in her head as she pins a collection of photos to her office wall. "
Kilgrave isn't the only face revealed in the clip. Fans get their first look at Ritter's character from the front after the last three teasers only showed her from behind, but much about Jones remains a mystery so far.
She has shown off those gifts she possesses such as super strength (destroying an alarm clock), limited invulnerability (beating up a bar full of patrons) and flight (leaping five stories into the air).
The former superhero is rebuilding her life and career as a "hot-tempered, sardonic, bada-- private detective in Hell's Kitchen" while plagued by self-loathing and a "wicked case of PTSD." Unlike Daredevil, Netflix's newest Marvel street hero is more about taking care of herself than looking out for others.
"Jessica is about paying rent, getting the next client," "Jessica Jones" showrunner Melissa Rosenberg said this summer. "She's dealing with a fairly dark past. She's trying to get through the day. She's not really trying to save the city, she's trying to save her apartment. At her core, she wants to do something good. She wants to contribute to the world. But there are a lot of personality issues for her that can get in the way.
"Jessica Jones is a brawler. She gets drunk, she gets pissed off, and boom, you're down. She doesn't wear a costume, she doesn't have a mask. She's just who she is."
The complete first season of "Marvel's Jessica Jones" will premiere on Nov. 20 on Netflix.
