Daredevil: Born Again Season 2: Winderbaum on Jessica Jones/Time Jump

Marvel Studios' Brad Winderbaum discussed Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 and how Krysten Ritter's return as Jessica Jones brings surprises.

As we inch closer to Showrunner Dario Scardapane and Marvel Television's Charlie Cox (Matt Murdock, aka Daredevil) and Vincent D'Onofrio (Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin)-starring Daredevil: Born Again returning for its second season in March, Brad Winderbaum, Marvel Studios' Head of Television, Streaming & Animation, is offering some additional insights into what we can expect. Checking in with The Official Marvel Podcast hosts Victoria Ying and Langston Belton, Winderbaum teased where Matt and Fisk find themselves heading into Season 2, and that viewers will definitely want to pay attention to what Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones has been up to since we last saw her.

Regarding what's ahead for Matt with the second season, Winderbaum notes that he's "in a completely different reality now," finding himself "fighting the power in a massive way." For Fisk, it will be about "the trappings of power and how hard it is to hold on to that power once you have it. When power is your only motivation."  Matt's biggest obstacle from the start? Getting a lot of different folks who want to take down Fisk on the same page. "You know, it's one thing for like a bunch of people to point in Kingpin's direction and say that guy's bad, but it's another thing to get everybody on the same page. It's really fun to watch him try to do that. But he's got a great partner in Karen Page [Deborah Ann Woll]. So, I'm very excited for people to see that, too," Winderbaum added.

As for the eagerly anticipated return of Ritter's Jessica Jones, Winderbaum teased that Daredevil: Born Again viewers will be in for "a lot of very cool surprises" when it comes to what Jessica has been up to. "It was so exciting when she [Ritter] walked on set for the first time in the leather jacket and the boots, and you're like, 'There she is,'" Winderbaum said. "What's really fun, and I'm not going to spoil anything, but what's really fun about that character is the time jump from the last time we saw her. It's been a while. So, we're reestablishing this character and catching the audience up to what the hell she's been up to. And that is filled with a lot of very cool surprises."
