Melissa Rosenberg
had Ritter on the top of her list for playing Jones, even when Rosenberg was developing the series for
ABC
.
[9] On adapting the character from the comics,
Jeph Loeb
stated, "Jessica Jones [i]s based on a much more adult comic. The source material came that way. She has real problems with a number of things that she abuses! And we’re not shying away from that. There’s no tidying her up."
[10] Ritter described the character by saying that "she goes about things in a very odd way, she’s very rough around the edges, and dry and sarcastic and a total asshole sometimes. But I think at her core she’s a good person."
[9] She put on 10 pounds (4.5 kg) of muscle for the role and trained for two months before filming began.
[11] Elizabeth Cappuccino portrayed a young Jessica.
