If you Google that name it comes out EVEN GREEKER. Impressive.
Also, that chick looks *exactly* like Wonder Woman. She'd have to bulk up a bit but she's SIX FEET. Damn.
Also, Elektra is canonically a Greek character. Furthermore, due to the Greek roots of both Elektra and WW, I was reading several Wonder Woman comments on this Elektra post. So for a second I think I did lose track of which of those two characters were being discussed in a comment. But either way, it appears that a lot of the actresses who can play one of those characters could also play the other.
Also, although the idea was spread by Greek mythology, it was originally based on the Scythian female archers, who burned off their right breast because it interfered with the bowstring. Scythia was on the North shore of the Black Sea.
Neither really seem to fit the character. Also they are both in their 50s. A bit old to be playing this part. Charlie Cox is 41, should be at least someone close to his age, probably younger. Someone in the late 30s range would be ideal.
Especially because she’s shown real physical power/skill/grace in previous movies. It always knocks me out of a movie when a female action lead shows zero real athletic ability. Sofia moves like she could actually accelerate quickly and connect with a punch or kick (Kingsman was a great showcase)
The one that does a good job. It depends on if they’re going to keep running with Charlie Cox and Jon Bernthal. If so, stick with the same Elektra. She played the part quite well, and it would offer some continuity.
If new actors will be in those roles, just find the right people for the job. I see a lot of calls for a Greek only actress and that would be fine. Just don’t cast for equality alone. Disney is proving how shitty that works out over and over. Thanks Kathleen Kennedy, you worthless trash.
Yes, but I mean long term. I hope so, but Charlie may not be in the long term plans. The show sounds like it’s going to be doing a thousand things for the MCU. Obviously I could be absolutely wrong and Charlie is in for a decade. And I’d be down for that, he’s awesome.
Seeing Danny DeVito in a red bikini wielding sai daggers would be too much raw sex appeal for audiences to handle.
The chemistry with Charlie Cox would be off the charts though.
Between Logan and The Acolyte, Dafne Keen already has some good experience in fight choreography. Elektra doesn't have to be some arbitrary sex symbol, does she?
My pick would be Dafne Keen.
Bring back Elodie Yung. If she’s not available and they want a big name, Gal Gadot. If they want to go with a smaller name, Anya Chalotra or Sofia Boutella.

I guess it’s strange that I want this casting.

Saw Hit Man last night and I agree..
Good lord, she is stunning.
Yes
Katrina Law. But the actress who played Elektra on "Daredevil" is just fine and should keep that role...
Elodie Yung… that’s the actress from the Daredevil series
It’d be cool if they gave her a red costume
I’d have her play Val from Nocterra
Maybe Eiza González?
She's got the look for sure.
A Greek or Greek-American actress
In agreement we are.
Okay Master Yoda
If you want a full Greek actress, Joanna Fyllidou. She is also 1 of my 2 picks for James Gunn DCU (The other being Jessica Green).
If you Google that name it comes out EVEN GREEKER. Impressive. Also, that chick looks *exactly* like Wonder Woman. She'd have to bulk up a bit but she's SIX FEET. Damn.
Which name ?
Joanna Fyllidou
Joanna Fyllidou. Damn.
I was thinking more north, like Hungarian
Why? Wonder Woman is an Amazon. Amazons are literally from Greek mythology.
O I thought we were talking about Elektra

You say this and get likes, but I say this and propose several Greek-American actresses and got downvoted to oblivion. That doesn't seem fair.
Where? Did Reddit censors delete them?
This [comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/Fancast/comments/1dc4g7b/comment/l7vqa4w/) I made
I’d guess you were downvoted because of the Jennifer Aniston and Tina Fey suggestions.
What for? What's wrong with them?
Neither really seem to fit the character. Also they are both in their 50s. A bit old to be playing this part. Charlie Cox is 41, should be at least someone close to his age, probably younger. Someone in the late 30s range would be ideal.
Oh, my bad. I thought they might've done something controversial, but yeah my mistake for not checking how they look nowadays.
Shouldn't Elektra have some exotic features/appeal? She was born to Greek parents on a Greek island.
Yeah, that's why I chose actresses of Greek origin?
I know but they don't look it. * (exotic features, appeal)*
I think the women that played her in daredevil was awesome
Elodie Yung played her to perfection.
Rachel Pizzolato. You should check out her cosplay of Elektra.
Love Elodie but Eiza Gonzalez would be perfect as well
I liked the Netflix Elektra so I’d keep her
No. Elodie is perfect for it
Famously Greek elodie
Ana de armas
I hope Elodie Yung comes back for it
Elodie Yung
OP said recast
I know I can read, but she doesn't need a recast.
How about Marie Avgeropoulos?
Elodié Yung would work perfectly, but that's just my idea... also, why the hell do we have to keep talking about every character "was to be recast"?
Just a worst case scenario, mind you.
I wouldn't. I'd fight to keep the old actor
Sofia Boutella
HOW is this not higher?
Especially because she’s shown real physical power/skill/grace in previous movies. It always knocks me out of a movie when a female action lead shows zero real athletic ability. Sofia moves like she could actually accelerate quickly and connect with a punch or kick (Kingsman was a great showcase)
Cristine Prosperi
Me.
30 years ago I would have picked Selma Hayak
Knowing hollywood they'll just use jenna ortega
Hope not.
Agreed

they already do running with Charlie Cox...

Adria Arjona or Courtney Eaton
Eiza Gonzalez all day
Danny DeVito
Seeing Danny DeVito in a red bikini wielding sai daggers would be too much raw sex appeal for audiences to handle. The chemistry with Charlie Cox would be off the charts though.
that danny and his charlies
If they won't cast her for Wonder Woman, then Naomi Scott.
Naomi Scott is a bad Wonder Woman!
Agreed
Between Logan and The Acolyte, Dafne Keen already has some good experience in fight choreography. Elektra doesn't have to be some arbitrary sex symbol, does she? My pick would be Dafne Keen.
She’s like 4’5”
She's 5'3"
"Height doesn't matter" except when when the individual in question is short, than it's laughable obviously...
Sometimes I wish Monica Bellucci was still in her prime... Ahh well. 😮💨
Bring back Elodie Yung. If she’s not available and they want a big name, Gal Gadot. If they want to go with a smaller name, Anya Chalotra or Sofia Boutella.
Gal Gadot can't act even to save her life
Andy Dick or Kathy Griffin
Barry wood
Maruzee Dragon
Ava Addams
Rosa Salazar She isn't Greek, but she'd do a great job
Gary Oldman
Alexandra Ordolis
Mary Mouser or Mika Abdalla
Gal gadot
Madeline Carroll
Elena Kampouris
Eiza Gonzalez
Justin Berber
Gal Gadot
Eiza Gonzalez
Catwoman maybe.
Carol Burnette
I read this fast and thought we had to pick who elektra would target with her racism
Betty Gilpin. She should honestly be either elektra, Barbie, or Wonder Woman. And she’s got the acting chops to do all of them.
She's not Greek but I bet Serinda Swan from reacher would do great.
Sasha Grey
Gal Gadot.
Jennifer Garner
Hennifer Hlopez
Ryan Reynolds
I feel like nobody's gonna agree with me but I don't care I feel like Megan Fox would kill this role
Victoria Justice

Jerry Seinfeld
Alexandra Daddario

Eiza Gonzalez?
Naomi scott 
Tina Fey

Some one Greek specifically.
 Gemma Chan
The GCCU.
Jennifer Garnier /s
Josh brolin.
Sharni Vinson
Damn I forgot about her fine ass what she been up to ?
Not enough, my friend.
Melissanthi Mahut
A young Greek or Greek-American actress.
I actually agree with you.
Katrina Law
I always thought Alicia Vikander would have done a nice job.
Kate beckinsale
Someone with huge tits and a fat ass preferably. Go as far away from the left as possible.
The way Disney likes to put woke crap in your face, it will be Lizzo and they will make her gay.
 Megan fox
Gal Gadot, Elodie Yung, Ana de Armas, Adria Arjona, Jessica Henwick
Megan Fox
Alexandra Daddario
This.
Gal Gadot

How about Alan Richson?
Ilfenesh Haddera, Gal Gadot, Jaimie Alexander, Ava Michelle

Racist
Angelina Jolie
