While Winderbaum did not provide a definitive answer about ‘Jessica Jones’ MCU future, he made it clear that she remains a priority in his mind.
“I love ‘Jessica Jones.’ I think it’s one of the highlights of the Netflix era for me,” Winderbaum told us. “She certainly embodies the character better than anybody. And man, wouldn’t it be awesome to bring her back and see her on screen again?”
