JESSICA JONES (Cancelled After Season 3)

Season 2 is most memorable to me for Trish rustling my jimmies. After all her horse shit she pulled in season 2 she’s getting to Skyler White levels of despicable imo.

And then there were none: Netflix has severed ties with Marvel TV by canceling Jessica Jones and The Punisher. The cancellations follow the previous axing of Daredevil, Iron Fistand Luke Cage and team-up miniseries The Defenders.

The third season of Jessica Jones, which has finished production, will still air (a date hasn't been set yet), but that will be the swan song for the Marvel shows on Netflix, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. Creator and showrunner Melissa Rosenberg left the series after season three wrapped for an overall deal at Warner Bros. TV; a new showrunner hadn't been named in the wake of her departure.

"Marvel's The Punisher will not return for a third season on Netflix," the streamer said in a statement. "Showrunner Steve Lightfoot, the terrific crew, and exceptional cast including star Jon Bernthal, delivered an acclaimed and compelling series for fans, and we are proud to showcase their work on Netflix for years to come.

"In addition, in reviewing our Marvel programming, we have decided that the upcoming third season will also be the final season for Marvel’s Jessica Jones. We are grateful to showrunner Melissa Rosenberg, star Krysten Ritter and the entire cast and crew for three incredible seasons of this groundbreaking series, which was recognized by the Peabody Awards among many others. We are grateful to Marvel for five years of our fruitful partnership and thank the passionate fans who have followed these series from the beginning."

Netflix announced its partnership with Marvel to much fanfare in 2013, committing to four ongoing shows plus The Defenders. After Frank Castle (Bernthal) appeared in season two of Daredevil, The Punisher spun off into its own series.

The cuts started in October 2018 with the cancellation of Iron Fist, which had earned the least critical praise among the Marvel shows. Luke Cage followed a week after that, and Daredevil was canceled in late November, about six weeks after its third season debuted.

Sources told THR that Netflix didn't want to hold back the Jessica Jones cast from seeking other work when the company was confident the third season would be the last for the show.

The wave of cancellations comes as Marvel parent company Disney will launch its Netflix rival streaming service — Disney+ — in late 2019. The subscription video-on-demand platform will feature some of Marvel's biggest box office stars (including Tom Hiddleston) reprising their roles in TV spinoffs, in addition to new scripted live-action Star Wars series and offshoots of other Disney-owned IP.

Despite the Netflix cancellations, Disney+ chairman Kevin Mayer told THR that it's a possibility the "high-quality shows" could be revived on the forthcoming platform.

For his part, The Punisher star Bernthal told THR that "there will be more Frank Castle one way or the other," in a reference perhaps to the show's future on Disney+ or seeing the decades-old beloved character best known as The Punisher live on in other forms.

Marvel TV head Jeph Loeb offered similar sentiments in a statement Monday after the cancellations of Jessica Jones and The Punisher.

"On behalf of everyone at Marvel Television, we couldn't be more proud or more grateful to our audience," he said. "Our network partner may have decided they no longer want to continue telling the tales of these great characters — but you know Marvel better than that. As Matthew Murdock's dad once said, 'The measure of a man is not how he gets knocked to the mat, it's how he gets back up. To be continued."

Gutted there will be no more daredevil, the others I'm not to upset about.
 
Jones is my favorite of all. Too bad its canceled. Really like Luke Cage too. Daredevil is leaste for me.

If you haven't yet, you guys should check out COUNTERPART. It's one, if not, the best drama airing on TV right now. Brilliant series.



lol WTF this sounds crazy as hell. Going to check this out.
 
It just got cancelled.

Does it have an actual ending or did they just drop it without finishing it? Never mind looked online. Looks like they are trying to see if someone else will buy Season 3. Seems like a perfect Netflix show.

Are season 2 and 3 worth watching? I loved season 1, one of my favorite Netflix shows.
 
Will return to disney+. Then, The Punisher will kill them with kindness and courage. Not guns.

Can't wait.
 
Daredevil an Punisher were dumb to cancel n take from Netflix. DareDevil nor Punisher is fit for Disney but u allow Netflix to keep those....... the others Cage Fist n Jobws weren't great either ....... JJ was decent at times.
 
Cool they gave us the best clips so that we don''t have to watch the series. I think I get it. :p
 
Surprised this made it to a 3rd season. I'll watch, but I'll be disappointed if we don't get to see Hellcat in a pair of tight yellow leotards at least once.
