Ritter was also asked about the second season of the show, and how it compares to being on the Netflix shows, which were a bit more heavier in tone compared to the majority of Disney+ Marvel shows. Ritter called the show “gritty,” and that being back has felt the exact same.

“Oh, it’s gritty. It feels big too. The crew’s amazing. I’ve had an amazing experience. I can’t say anything, but I love being with Charlie [Cox]. It was as if no time had passed. Like, my first day, I was looking around like we’re back. But juxtaposing it with Mia [her Dexter Resurrection character] and Jessica has been really creatively fulfilling for me as an artist and just what a big, big banner year I’m having. I think the fans are going to be very, very thrilled. We’re doing some cool stuff.”
