Jennifer Garner made a surprise cameo in the superhero film Deadpool & Wolverine, reprising her role as Elecktra from the Daredevil series. The cameo included a meta joke referencing her real-life divorce from Ben Affleck. Garner's character, Elecktra, appears in the movie's third act to help heroes evade a dangerous situation.
The joke in question involves Elecktra nonchalantly responding to Deadpool's condolences about losing her longtime love, hinting at her divorce from Affleck. Garner and Affleck first met on the set of Daredevil in 2003, eventually marrying in 2005 and divorcing in 2018. Despite their split, the former couple has maintained an amicable co-parenting relationship for their three children.
