Jennifer Garner Shares INTENSE Superhero Training for “Deadpool & Wolverine”

Celebs quite literally work their tails off to stay fit, and Jennifer Garner is no exception. Even though the star has maintained an active lifestyle for years, she had quite a bit of work to do to reprise her role of Elektra Natchios for a Cameo in Deadpool and Wolverine .

She shared a video of her workout routine on Instagram, and it is intense. The mom of three commented in the video’s caption that she’s fit “but not Marvel fit,” and to get back into Elektra shape, she went hard.

“We had #SuperHeroSummer over here, twirling sais in the backyard and laughing at our sore old bodies,” she wrote.

Jennifer Garner explained that she didn’t realize Elektra needed an ending in the franchise. But Ryan Reynolds and Shawn Levy had to have her. Jennifer and her stunt double, Shauna Duggins, began training as hard as possible and were ready to make Elektra shine.

“Shooting the fight was so fun, being there all together—truly like a dream. I’m proud of my friends and grateful to be up there with them. Thank you doesn’t cut it, guys, but it’s a good placeholder until I figure out what does,” Jen wrote.

Her workouts impressed fellow stars. Rita Wilson commented on the video, “This is riveting! Shows how much work goes into making something look effortless. You are a MARVEL, ok? Plus, is that the best trailer for an actor I’ve ever seen?!?”

And fans said the training was well worth it, “You looked amazing. Saw the film last night. Worth all the sweat and hard work!”

Deadpool & Wolverine is playing in theaters now.
