One of the best looking baddies I've seen in a while.
Some pretty substantial Elektra news today. We first heard of reports of the teaser trailer and now new Elektra pics/stills over at Empire Movies.

Elektra Teaser Trailer


No, there is no trailer out yet for Elektra, starring Jennifer Garner in this off-shoot film of Daredevil. However, details are starting to surface which claim that the film will be sweet, sick, and awesome. The best description comes from the Natural Flux site with some of the description stating:

I can proudly say i saw the Elektra trailer tonight. I can also safely say that this movie....is going to kick ass.

It's feeling is very much "X-2" at this stage. The mutation of the baddies that poor old hotty Jennifer Garner has to face is made clear in the film via cgi shots, and the narration says something along the lines of the X-2 trailers about being "unique" or "different" .The trailer even mentions that Elektra comes "from the studio that brought you X-MEN" but declines to give a similar mention to Daredevil; from following material it's clear that FOX are trying to distance Elektra from the mixed reaction that DareDevil garnered in 2003.

Typhoid Mary also features pretty prominently and theres considerably strong CGI with an explosion blowing out a building at the ending of the trailer and such features as computer generated snakes appearing on a female character like the Medusa, with other snakes coming down some sort of passage plus a CG wolf emerging from one bad guy's body before running into a forest. Elektra also runs up a big old branch and splinters the wood by jumping into midair ala "Crouching Tiger" .Theres some "Kill Bill" and "Punisher" style action going on in the trailer, with kimonos and swords a plenty, and Elektra apparently training in a white outfit on an oriental stage next to a lake, but its all looking very dark and is done in low saturated colour.

New Elektra Pics and Still Online


Empire Movies has recently got its hands on some good looking character pics from Elektra. After looking at the pics, I can't say I have any idea about the style the film will take or the setting. The characters look pretty random; I never got into the character in the comics. However, the coolest pic [again] is the one of Typhoid Mary, played by the hottie Natassia Malthe.

Elektra is due out to theatres on January 14, 2005
