Director Shawn Levy recently shared insights on how Jennifer Garner's Ben Affleck joke in the movie 'Deadpool & Wolverine' came to fruition. Levy revealed that the joke was not vetted by Affleck himself but was approved by Garner, who portrayed Elektra in the film. In the scene, Ryan Reynolds' character offers condolences to Elektra over the death of Daredevil, played by Affleck, to which Garner's character nonchalantly responds, 'It's fine.'
Levy clarified that while the joke was not pre-approved by Affleck, he later spoke with him for permission to include a tribute reel in the end credits of the movie. Garner and Affleck, who met on the set of 'Daredevil' in 2003, were married for several years and share three children before finalizing their divorce in 2018.
