6 Villains I Want to See on Future Marvel Netflix Shows

This past weekend, I rewatched Daredevil on Netflix, and it still holds up! I’m doubly excited now for the second season in March! Likewise, Netflix and Marvel have announced a second season of Jessica Jones, and there are rumors on the wind of a Punisher show as well. Clearly, this big Marvel experiment has been a huge success, and hopefully it’s only going to get bigger and better from here!

And with new shows and seasons comes a need for new bad guys!

Where are their Emmys?

The Luke Cage show is scheduled to debut later this year. Iron Fist is still in the works. And The Defenders will be here before we know it. It’s a great time to be a Marvel fan — and a Marvel villain! Everyone agrees that the bad guys who star in these shows are some of the best Marvel is putting out, possibly because we have a whole season to get to know them instead of a 2-hour movie. Wilson Fisk on Daredevil and Kilgrave on Jessica Jones have made for great TV, but who else can Marvel use on the small screen?

Join me after the jump for six super-villains that I think would be great for upcoming Netflix shows!

Punisher and More Jessica Jones Coming to Netflix

This wonderful news arrived over the weekend, and while that makes my announcement rather late, I still wanted to make note: Netflix and Marvel have announced that Jessica Jones will return for a second season, and they’re also working on a new Punisher show following actor Jon Bernthal’s reportedly amazing work with the character. Bernthal will appear as the Punisher in Daredevil‘s upcoming second season, which will arrive on March 18.

There better be a skull on that shirt

This is great news all around. Not only were Marvel and Netflix confident enough in Jessica Jones, but they’re so thrilled about Bernthal’s Punisher that they’re already talking spin-off. I’m excited to see the performance. A Punisher Netflix show is a no-brainer.

Plus Jessica Jones was damn good television, so I’m glad to see her coming back.

Also, for those interested, work is still underway for the Iron Fist show. I’ll have that casting announcement whenever it arrives.

Daredevil Teaser Fulfills Sole Obligation

The second season of the Daredevil TV show will debut on Netflix on March 18 — and that is a sentence that makes me giddy just from typing it out. A Daredevil TV show, you guys! Anyway, they released a quick teaser trailer today to announce the debut date. And it definitely teases!

Yeah, it’s mostly just quotes and scenes from the first season. Only at the end do we get some snippets of new stuff, but at least that stuff sounds cool! Can’t wait!

6 Thoughts on the First Season of Jessica Jones

Looks like this Marvel/Netflix deal is turning out to be one of the most creatively satisfying projects either company has ever done. After Daredevil was a huge hit this past summer, Jessica Jones has roared onto our screens to deliver another phenomenal superhero show. Gripping, invasive, spooky and downright charming (for both good and ill), Jessica Jones was worthy of a binge watch this past weekend, and it lived up to all the hype.

Season Rating: 9/10 – Great 

Rather than write any kind of official review, I’d just like to jam a little on the awesomeness of Jessica Jones (and a few minor flaws). I loved the show from beginning to end and will gladly go back and rewatch someday. I can’t wait for her to team up with other heroes on the Defenders, and I already kind of want Jessica to start knocking around Tony Stark and Steve Rogers.

So join me after the jump for my wrap-up on Jessica Jones! And watch out for MASSIVE SPOILERS for the entire show!

In case you needed to be reminded, the new Jessica Jones TV show finally arrives on Netflix today! In fact, it’s available right now! Unfortunately, schmucks like me have to go to work. But you darn well better believe I’ll be binging the show as soon as I get out and through the weekend!

To hold us over, here’s the radical and nifty opening title sequence!

I’m so excited for this show! Word has it it’s just as good as we all hope. This is going to be a great weekend!
