After a break of 20 years, actress Jennifer Garner is making her return to the world of Marvel, as she will reprise her role as the Marvel anti-hero Elektra in Deadpool 3.
The actress first made her appearance as Elektra Natchios in the 2003 Ben Affleck starrer Daredevil following which she starred in a spin-off solo movie Elektra in 2005.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, her involvement in Deadpool 3 hints at some sort of multiverse angle to the film that has long been rumored, and it is possible that other characters from Marvel films made by Fox could pop up. But this being Deadpool, one can’t rule out some meta, self-awareness either.
Deadpool 3 will also mark Garner’s reunion with the Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy, who all previously worked together on the sci-fi film The Adam Project.
She is the latest addition to the roster of Deadpool 3, and while most of the details for the movie have been kept under wraps, the biggest attraction for the movie is Hugh Jackman who will be returning to play Wolverine after his final stint as the character in Logan.
