Marvel’s ‘Jessica Jones’ Hits Netflix in 2015

Netflix aims to bolster their exclusive programming slate significantly in the near future, with up to 20 original shows airing per year on the streaming service. An important part of that upcoming original content is coming from Marvel TV beginning next year with Daredevil – the first of four series and a crossover miniseries that explore the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s version of Hell’s Kitchen, New York, and the superheroes that reside there.

The continuously growing franchise that began with Iron Man in movie theaters in 2008, expanded to TV last year for the first time with Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on ABC, and next month adds a second series in Agent Carter. After that, Marvel TV tests out a new platform in with their Netflix slate which we just learned will include both A.K.A. Jessica Jones alongside Daredevil in 2015.
