Elektra has risen again
However, the question remains as to how Elektra will re-enter the story, considering that her character seems to have met her end in ‘The Defenders’. His return comes at a time when the evil organization The Hand is making waves for the appearance of an epic showdown with Tom Holland’s Spider-Man in ‘Spider-Man. New Day’. His return raises questions about whether he will also make his MCU debut in the upcoming Spidey film.As the fate of the Hand will only be discussed in July when the film is released, it remains to be seen if the organization will participate in future episodes of ‘Daredevil. Born Again’.Elodie’s Elektra has been raised from the dead three times. Besides him, another version of the character, played by Jennifer Garner, was also resurrected in ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’. Garner previously portrayed the character opposite Ben Affleck in 2003’s Daredevil and later headlined the standalone ‘Elektra’.
