  • The TV-series became part of a small television universe, which also includes Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, The Punisher, and the crossover Defenders.
  • The role of Kilgrave was played by the excellent British actor David Tennant, a star of theater, film, and television. In 2020, he played villains twice — in the TV-series Des and Deadwater Fell. We will soon see him as Phileas Fogg in another screen adaptation of Around the World in 80 Days.
