Deadpool 3: Jennifer Garner's Elektra

The foul-mouthed Marvel anti hero will return to the big screen in Marvel’s Deadpool 3. A few days ago new images from the sets of the threequel reveal Ryan Reynolds’ new suit. The Daily Mirror first shared these images which showed Reynolds in full Deadpool costume both with and without his mask while on set in London, England. The costume is very similar to the ones the character wore in the previous two films, albeit with some slight alterations. The new suit has a much brighter red look, with the primary color of his suit looking to be a bit more saturated than it has before. The on screen costumes until now have been had much muted colors. Marvel must’ve decided to give Deadpool an upgrade. Well, it appears that’s not the only thing they decided. Apparently the studio has decided to get back Jennifer Garner’s Elektra.

Deadpool 3: Why Is Jennifer Garner Back?

The Hollywood Reporter reveals that actress Jennifer Garner will be reprising her role as Elektra in Deadpool 3. The character Elektra is often referred to as the Master of Assassins. Garner portrayed the character in 2003’s Daredevil which starred Ben Affleck as the titular character. Despite the film’s mediocre box office reception, Garner got her own spin-off movie in 2005 which also didn’t do wonders. Recently Garner worked with Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy on Netflix’ The Adam Project.

This might explain Garner’s sudden return as the character. Reynolds and Levy must’ve requested the actress to appear in the film in a fun cameo. THR’s Heat Vision newsletter also agrees with me as Garner’s role is described as a cameo. Daredevil and Elektra were critically maligned upon release in 2003 and 2005, with the pair currently sitting at 43% and 11% respectively on Rotten Tomatoes.

Deadpool 3 is slated to release on May 3rd 2024 in MCU’s Phase 6.
