Jennifer Garner's new Elektra costume revealed

I didn't care for Daredevil, either, except for Farrell's Bullseye (and parts of Kingpin and Electra). But Bullseye ruled (until he missed DD with the shards, which sucked)!

I think there are several Asian actresses who could pull Electra off, "oomph-wise", but they don't fit the character "heritage-wise" :) Of course, Hollywood doesn't hesitate to make Asian characters white, so...

Eliza Dushku might be a nice choice, or Michelle Rodriguez (see above). But an actress with feline grace who is able to convincingly perform a well-choreographed fight (read: not filmed in close-ups) is hard to find. Carrie-Ann Moss? Patricia Velasquez (?, the woman who played Ankh-Sun-Amun in the Mummy films)? On second thought, whe might have been good for the role.

I absolutely HATED Daredevil with a passion. It sucked beyond belief IMHO. As far as the new costume goes, I think I liked her old one more, go figure. The new one just seems to..... Feminine. It kind of looks like something you would find at Victoria's Secrets. I just always pictured more..... Leather. Her new one is too velvety for my taste. :\
 

"Daredevil" kept me awake in a veeeeery long Brazil->USA flight, where I watched it twice in a row. And in the return flight I slept through The Core (!!!).

I like the movie, and I liked Garner as Elektra. The way I heard it, the red costume is one of several outfits she'll wear during the movie. They tried remaking the comics costume as-is, but the skirt didn't work, so they traded that in for long pants. Dunno if they'll keep the bandana, though.
