She explained: "They'll [The Defenders and Jessica Jones season 2] be back-to-back. I don't know if they'll overlap a little bit. It's about to be a serious undertaking. I'm starting my physical training - lots of weight training and boxing."
Despite all the hard work, she's excited about the future: "I'm excited to see what happens next for Jessica, and the end of season one left a lot of doors open and questions unanswered. Kilgrave was her reason for getting up every morning. Saving people gave her purpose. I wonder how emotionally taxed she's going to be now. That opens a lot of doors as to who will come out and play. We all live in the same universe, so there are endless possibilities."
Pressed on whether or not she'll appear in Luke Cage, she didn't give a definitive answer but said: "Marvel have this grand plan. Luke Cage will come out, then Iron Fist. In terms of scheduling I don't know how it will all come out and I can't even tell you if I've filmed Luke Cage. But I'm excited for Mike [Colter] to have his own show. I know the tone of that show is going to be very different."
Jessica Jones season 1 is available now on Netflix, alongside Daredevil season 1 and 2. Luke Cage season 1 debuts on September 30.
