Jessica Jones Finds New Love In Season 2 Set Photos

Jessica Jones hasn't had an easy road on the path to becoming a superhero. None of the Defenders have, really. But Jessica might have had the roughest path.


And though the self-destructive alcoholic with a heart of gold tends to alienate her closest friends and sabotage relationships before they can develop, things might be looking up in the character's post-Defenders life.

Some new set photos from Jessica Jones Season 2 show Krysten Ritter's character getting some action from a new man. The guy isn't recognizable, but Jones is certainly happy to be getting close to him.

Of course given the nature of the show, it could be a flashback. It seems like this new season will focus on the nature of Jessica's powers and how she obtained them. This could be an old boyfriend from her pre-superstrength life.

Life certainly won't be getting any easier for Jessica Jones, as she still has to get through the events of The Defenders where she'll team up with Iron Fist, Daredevil, and ex-beau Luke Cage.

It remains to be seen how she'll be affected by the events going into Jessica Jones' second season. We're just excited to see her hard-drinking, hard-hitting, self-sabotaging adventures continue.

You can see her next when Defenders premieres on Netflix on August 18.
