David Tennant could make an unexpected return to ‘Jessica Jones’.
The Marvel superhero drama is set to air its third and final series on Netflix later this year, and the show’s boss Melissa Rosenberg has hinted his character Kilgrave could come back from the dead for an appearances in the last season.
Although Jessica’s villainous ex boyfriend was killed off at the end of series one, he did return for the second season as a hallucination.
With the show being cancelled – along with Netflix’s four year deal with Marvel coming to an end – a fan tweeted: "goodbye again Kilgrave"
However, showrunner Melissa seemed to hint at a return, as she coyly replied: "Not quite yet!"
Meanwhile, leading lady Krysten Ritter has opened up about the end of the show, and heaped praise on its passionate fans.
She wrote on Instagram: "It has been a dream to play Jessica alongside my amazing cast and the best crew in the business for these past 5 years. I am so grateful for every second of it.
"We have THE BEST fans. You guys mean the world to me and I appreciate you beyond words. The final season of Jessica Jones is coming later this year and I am proud of how we complete JJ’s journey. I can’t wait for you all to see it. Stay tuned and more to come."
The hints of Tennant’s return would be exciting for the fans and cast alike, and the star has previously admitted how easy the decision was to sign on for the role.
He said: "It’s a fantastic world, the Marvel world, it’s such an exciting place to be at all, especially as I grew up reading these comic books, I though it was too good an opportunity to miss."
