Jennifer Garner is rumored to reprise her role as Elektra Natchios for the upcoming Deadpool 3.

The news was first reported by The Hollywood Reporter, however details of the actress’ involvement and any other future projects she may have with Marvel remain under wraps. Shawn Levy’s title will be the first film to feature several Marvel Comics characters from the noughties that were once owned by 20th Century Fox, with Hugh Jackman also confirmed to return as Wolverine.

Garner made two appearances as Elektra across two years — first for 2003’s Daredevil alongside Ben Affleck, then the stand alone spinoff Elektra two years later. It remains to be seen whether any of the events from these two films will come into play in Deadpool 3, which is further fuelling the rumors of a multiverse angle.

Elsewhere in entertainment, check out the trailer for The Nun 2.
