March 24th. That’s the date. We’re so close now to the second season of Disney’s soft reboot of the Netflix version of the show. The first season was a rounding success for Disney, which managed to capture the same feel and vibe that Netflix managed to do.
We know Krysten Ritter will be reprising her role as Jessica Jones, as seen in the trailers, footage, and she’s even been on stage with Charlie Cox, marketing the show. If you haven’t seen the latest full trailer, then I’ve got you covered:
1. Iron Fist
2. Hawkeye (Kate or Clint)
I put Kate or Clint because I’d take either Hawkeye. I feel like we haven’t seen enough of either character since the Hawkeye show, which came out in November 2021. Kate resides in New York, and I’d be surprised if she isn’t aware of who Matt is and what is going on. After all, Daredevil did mention he needs an army to take down Fisk, what better way than a skilled archer to rival Bullseye’s capabilities?
3. Moon Knight
Moon Knight has been done dirty by Marvel after his own Disney+ show. It’s been almost 4 years since we first got Moon Knight in live-action, portrayed by Oscar Isaac. Oscar did a fantastic job with the character, truly bringing him to life on the small screen. It also appeared as though Disney had a plan for the character moving forward, teasing other characters such as Blade and a more supernatural aspect to Marvel. Unfortunately, it went nowhere, and Moon Knight feels like a relic at this point.
4. Shang-Chi
As above. Although at least with Shang-Chi, we know the second movie for Shang-Chi is in development and has been for quite some time. He, however, is another character that seems to have been forgotten about. A solid tease for the character would be for him to show up in the second season of Daredevil: Born Again. His aesthetic matches the show in terms of his fighting ability, but I’d love to see it in a much grittier nature. This one would be more about fan service than it would anything else, to be honest, but this is a character that had a very successful movie at the box office, so it makes sense.
5. Spider-Man
This probably feels like an out-there pick, but is it truly? Besides Iron Fist, nobody else on this list has actually had any form of contact with Matt Murdoch; Peter has. I know this is treading in muddy waters due to how Peter’s story ended in No Way Home, but this doesn’t mean Peter couldn’t show up as Spider-Man. He’s a character who has a lot of rivalries with Fisk, and on top of everything, Spider-Man is still a hero who is about protecting people. His entire city is under the leadership of Wilson Fisk; there’s no better reason to get involved.
