Elektra's Back


Jennifer Garner takes up her sais once more in the Elektra movie.

The last we saw Elektra Natchios in the Daredevil movie, she was lying dead on the roof of a building, impaled with her own sai. Matt Murdock (Ben Affleck) saw her heart stop, and she was dead.

Well, not even death can keep a killer babe down. Elektra's coming back in a big way, via her own movie. Elektra stars Jennifer Garner, who this time dons a red leather outfit. OKAY, it's RED but it's STILL NOT the real Elektra outfit. BAH! Anyway, Miss Garner's hot as hell, but it would be hotter to have the real Elektra outfit, and not just a stupid palette swap of the crappy leather outfit she wore in Daredevil- SHE'S STILL WEARING HIGH HEELS, DAMN IT.

The 'first look' trailer is now online (check out Ain't It Cool for links to sites with the trailer), and shows various scenes from the film, and includes an interview with Jennifer Garner as she talks about the training she went through and how she doesn't want to 'screw it up' for fans. Well, unfortunately the costume design is probably not part of her responsibilities.
Hopefully this film will get better as it develops.

Elektra will borrow heavily from the comics in terms of storyline, with the resurrected femme fatale taking on the evil Hand organization. We should be seeing the movie sometime next year.
