Marvel's AKA Jessica Jones is set to air in the latter half of this year and the filming has recently kicked-off. By far, we got four names confirmed by Marvel as the cast of the Netflix series. We've got Krysten Ritter as the title role actress Jessica Jones, Mike Colter as her love interest Luke Cage, Rachel Taylor as her closest buddy Trish Walker aka Hellcat, and David Tennant as the antagonist Zebediah Kilgrave aka The Purple Man. More recently, Carrie-Anne Moss has also been confirmed as a cast of AKA Jessica Jones and she would be playing Harper.
Now, it's an obvious fact that you cannot run a series consisting of 13 hour-long episodes with four or five characters! You definitely need few more in your roaster. Marvel knows it well and so they have added three more stars for three characters in the series! Let's check out who they are and what they are playing!
Eka Darville As Malcolm!
The 25-year-old Australian actor is more prominent for his roles in Power Rangers RPM and Spartacus: Blood and Sand. In AKA Jessica Jones, Eka Darville will be playing the role of Malcolm who is a neighbor of the titular character and his "˜own journey will intertwine with her quest in a surprising way'.
Erin Moriarty As Hope!
The 20-year-old American actress has been casted in AKA Jessica Jones for the role of Hope who according to Marvel is "˜a young girl who becomes a client of Alias Investigations'. Erin Moriarty is best-known for her roles in the movies The Watch and The Kings of Summer, and in the television series Red Widow.
Wil Traval As A Policeman!
In AKA Jessica Jones, Wil Traval is playing the role of an NYPD cop whose name hasn't been announced by Marvel. But they describe him as a cop "˜who takes "protect and serve" very seriously'. The Aussie actor is most recognized for his role in the Aussie television drama All Saints.
