While his young son becomes enamored with Jessica and her powers, Oscar keeps his distance, worrying about the trouble that follows people like her.
“J.R. is an incredible addition to our cast, bringing complex and subtle emotion and humor,” Marvel’s Jessica Jones series Creator and Executive Producer, Melissa Rosenberg, said in a statement. “He exudes warmth, edge and intelligence, and blends perfectly with our tone.”
A premiere date for Jessica Jones Season 2 has yet to be announced.
