The Hollywood Reporter<\/a><\/strong> reveals that Jennifer Garner<\/strong> is set to reprise her role as Elektra<\/strong> after a 20-year hiatus in Marvel Studios’ DEADPOOL 3<\/a><\/strong>, which is currently filming in the UK. Garner portrayed the character in 20th Century Fox’s Daredevil<\/strong> (2003) and her self-titled 2005 solo picture. While both films received mixed responses from audiences and critics alike (I’m a fan<\/em>), Garner’s portrayal of the character was a highlight, and her dedication to performing the stunts, fight choreography, and training hardcore with her sai, earned her respect from many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Garner and Ryan Reynolds<\/strong> previously worked together with director Shawn Levy<\/strong> on The Adam Project<\/strong> (2022) for Netflix.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although not officially confirmed, the original X-MEN<\/strong><\/a> cast is expected to partake in the big screen festivities, and there are even rumors of Ben Affleck<\/strong> returning as Daredevil<\/strong>, and the Fantastic Four<\/strong> (2005) appearing, along with a bunch of other characters from the FoXverse. Clearly, DP3 is moving full speed ahead with the multiverse and consequences of time travel. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Surely this will perform better at the box office!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deadpool 3<\/strong> (or is it Deadpool and Wolverine<\/strong>?) arrives in theaters May 3, 2024<\/strong>. It stars Ryan Reynolds<\/strong> as Deadpool<\/strong>, Hugh Jackman<\/strong> as Wolverine<\/strong>, Emma Corrin<\/strong>, Matthew Macfadyen<\/strong>, Morena Baccarin<\/strong> as Vanessa<\/strong>, Stefan Kapi\u010di\u0107<\/strong> as the voice of Colossus<\/strong>, Leslie Uggams<\/strong> as Blind Al<\/strong>, Karan Soni<\/strong> as Dopinder<\/strong>, Rob Delaney<\/strong> as Peter<\/strong>, Brianna Hildebrand<\/strong> as Negasonic Teenage Warhead<\/strong>, and Shioli Kutsuna<\/strong> as Yukio<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
