Culture news One of the worst Marvel films is leaving Netflix soon: fans can still make up their own minds!
There are departures that sadden much more than others. And suffice to say that the one we are currently interested in should not upset any Netflix subscriber. It would almost be a blessing. One of the worst Marvel films ever made is leaving the SVOD service in mid-January 2024 and it’s clearly not a loss.
Elektra leaves Netflix
5 years before the debut of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Iron Man, a superhero from the House of Ideas delivered expeditious justice to the cinema. Daredevil from 2003 with Ben Affleck in the lead role then struggles to convince the press and fans who criticize him for a far too smooth and “all-audience” approach to the devil of Hell’s Kitchen. With its budget of 78 million US dollars, the film brought in 179.2 million at the box office, which motivated 20th Century Fox (now owned by Disney) to capitalize on a saga supposedly in the making.
Two years after the adventures of Matt Murdock on the big screen, a spin-off centered on the character of Elektra saw the light of day and the critics were quick to shoot it down. Elektra with Jennifer Garner at the head of the poster is being destroyed by both professionals and spectators with scathing 11% and 29% on RottenTomatoes. However, if you want to discover the pre-MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) and its Avengers until 2023 almighty, there is still time. Elektra is available on Netflix for a few more days. It will permanently leave the catalog on January 14, 2024.
The synopsis of the film Elektra:
Recently returned to life, the legendary killer Elektra is on a mission to eliminate her new neighbors, Mark Miller and his daughter Abby, both pursued by the powerful and evil criminal organization “The Hand”. But against all odds, the young woman turns against her sponsors and decides to save her targets.

Elektra in Deadpool 3
Despite murderous reviews and a performance by Jennifer Garner that has been forgotten for 18 years, the character of Elektra will make her comeback in French cinemas on July 24, 2024. Directed by Shawn Levy, Deadpool 3 with the essential Ryan Reynolds in the title role officially joins the Marvel Cinematic Universe this summer, and without much surprise plays with the concept of the multiverse. Hugh Jackman once again plays Wolverine aka James “Logan” Howlett. And that’s not all. Morena Baccarin and Brianna Hildebrand are also present. Even Dogpool joins the third adventure of the craziest superhero from the Marvel stables. If you haven’t seen Deadpool and Deadpool 2, they’re available on Disney+
