Following on from the news that Drew Goddard is to script the upcoming Daredevil series, news is now coming in that Melissa Rosenberg is to script the Jessica Jones series.
Jones, who was attached briefly to a previously-aborted television adaptation of the character, is probably most famous for some less-than-sterling work on the godawful Twilight movies, the bane of boyfriends everywhere, but she has also worked as a writer and producer on Dexter and The OC.
Jessica Jones and Daredevil are to be joined on Netflix by Luke Cage and Iron Fist - four series that will build to a crossover miniseries, The Defenders. Each is designed to take viewers "deep into the gritty world of heroes and villains of Hell's Kitchen".
Netflix has committed to a minimum of four, thirteen episodes series and the culminating mini-series event that "reimagines a dream team of self-sacrificing, heroic characters."
