Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck Joke in Deadpool & Wolverine

In the new film 'Deadpool & Wolverine', Jennifer Garner's cameo as Elektra includes a cheeky reference to her ex-husband Ben Affleck’s character Daredevil, which was approved by Garner but not vetted by Affleck. Director Shawn Levy emphasized that all jokes in the film, including those about Garner and Hugh Jackman’s real-life divorces, were cleared with the actors beforehand to ensure they felt comfortable with the humor. Levy noted that the playful spirit of these jokes was crucial, as they aimed to avoid 'punching down'. Garner and Affleck, who were married from 2005 to 2015 and share three children, have maintained an amicable relationship post-divorce. The film has garnered significant success, grossing $824 million worldwide. Additionally, Levy dismissed rumors of a Taylor Swift cameo, clarifying they were unfounded.
