Marvel has announced that Rachael Taylor has joined the cast of AKA Jessica Jones as Patricia "Trish" Walker. Taylor joins a cast that includes Krysten Ritter (Jessica Jones), Mike Colter (Luke Cage), and David Tennant (Kilgrave).
Rachael Taylor has appeared in Charlie's Angels, Grey's Anatomy, and Transformers and much more. Melissa Rosenburg, the show runner for AKA Jessica Jones, said, “The character is a star and a powerhouse, and required an actress who is both, Rachael is all that and more!”
Marvel gave Trish the following description- Trish is a syndicated radio talk show host, former model and child TV star known to her adoring fans as "Patsy" Walker. As Jessica Jones’ closest friend, Trish helps her embark on the most dangerous case of Jessica's career.
In the comics, Patricia Walker went on to become Hellcat but it is unclear if she will make that transformation on screen.
AKA Jessica Jones does not have a set release date but should start production shortly with the projected release date in late 2015 or early 2016.
