JESSICA JONES Actor Eka Darville Will Return As 'Malcolm' For THE DEFENDERS
Malcolm had become a sidekick of sorts to Jessica Jones by the end of season 1 of the Netflix series, and now actor Eka Darville has confirmed that he'll reprise the role for The Defenders...
How pleased you'll be with this news will of course depend entirely on how you felt about Jessica's junkie neighbour turned sidekick in Jessica Jones, but Spoiler TV has managed to confirm that Eka Darville will return as Malcolm Ducasse (Powder in the comics) for Marvel and Netflix's superhero team-up show, The Defenders.
The website put the question to Darville at the Supanova Pop Culture Expo in Melbourne, Australia.
Spoiler TV: Malcolm and Jessica were quite close by the end of Jessica Jones. So I was wondering if you know yet whether or not you'll appear in 'The Defenders'?
Eka: Yes. I will be in it. I'm not sure how much yet but I will be in it.
It does make sense that Malcolm would still be hanging around, as it was heavily implied that he'd be helping Jones run Alias Investigations in the season finale - and if he is returning it's a safe bet we'll also see supporting characters from Daredevil, Luke Cage and Iron Fist.
Will you be glad to see Malcolm again, or did you find him to be a tad on the annoying side in Jessica Jones?
