Rachel Taylor Cast As Hellcat For Jessica Jones Netflix Series

Quote :

Marvel and Netflix have announced today that Rachael Taylor will play Patricia "Trish" Walker in Marvel's A.K.A. Jessica Jones. According to the official description, "Trish is a syndicated radio talk show host, former model and child TV star known to her adoring fans as "Patsy" Walker. As Jessica Jones’ closest friend, Trish helps her embark on the most dangerous case of Jessica's career." Despite being on the somewhat on the obscure side, this character has been around since the '40s, and became Hellcat in 1976. Will that happen in this series? It remains to be seen.

"The character is a star and a powerhouse, and required an actress who is both," showrunner Melissa Rosenberg said in a statement today. "Rachael is all that and more!" Jeph Loeb, Executive Producer/Marvel’s Head of Television adds, "Rachael's ability to embody a character that must balance both the darker and lighter elements of our series will provide a perfect emotional anchor for Jessica Jones. Rachael blew us away with her grounded, humanizing take on Trish, adding yet another layer to the complex, emotional story we’re telling with this series."

This is an interesting addition to the A.K.A. Jessica Jones, and it's going to be interesting to see how the character is handled in the series. Would you guys like to see Taylor suit up as Hellcat?

These Marvel/Netflix series are shaping up to be great.

Meh. Still not as impressive as to what DC is doing with their shows. It should be better than Agent of SHIT and Agent Craper though.
