The actress hyped up fans with an Instagram post titled “NYC bound baby,” which was posted Thursday morning at the same time as a Collider interview with Daredevil: Born Again showrunner Dario Scardapane, in which he revealed that production on season two of the Disney+ series would begin the following morning.
After recent comments from Brad Winderbaum, streaming and television executive at Marvel Studios, that they were "exploring" bringing other Defenders, including Ritter's Jessica Jones, back to Disney+, just as Marvel did with Charlie Cox' Matt Murdock in Daredevil: Born Again, fans jumped. Speculation quickly spread on social media that Ritter would reprise her role as Jessica Jones in the second season of Daredevil: Born Again.
Ritter indeed travels to New York for a well-known franchise series, but it turns out to be Dexter: Resurrection.
The main cast of the Dexter sequel, which has been filming in the Big Apple since last month, includes David Zayas, James Remar, Jack Alcott, Uma Thurman, Peter Dinklage, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Kadia Saraf, Dominic Fumusa and Emilia Suárez.
Dexter: Resurrection, which launches this summer on Paramount+ with Showtime, is executive produced by Clyde Phillips, who also returns to serve as showrunner.
