Remember what was the best thing about the 2003 Daredevil movie (about the obscure blind Marvel comic book hero played by Ben Affleck)?
No, not the cinema’s exit sign when it was finally over, but
Jennifer Garner’s boobs. Yup, and now Hollywood has for once cottoned on: there will be no Daredevil sequel, but we will be getting an entire movie dedicated to Garner’s boobs. Ain’t life swell?
Anyway, Elektra (the name of the Garner character) hits U.S. cinemas early 2005 and is directed by Rob Bowman (of the X-Files movie and Reign of Fire fame). Incidentally it also stars British actor Terence Stamp, who must be used to this sort of thing because he played the superpower villain General Zod in Superman II way back when.
Expect this one to go the Catwoman route at the box office . . .
Oh yeah, and at the risk of sounding waaayy too geeky (ah, too late already!): the costume worn here by her is closer to one in the original comics than in the Daredevil movie .
