In 'Deadpool & Wolverine,' the scene shows Elektra helping Ryan Reynolds' character Deadpool, as well as Hugh Jackman's character Wolverine.
Elektra mentions Emma Corrin’s character, Cassandra, and says someone “always dies” when they go against Cassandra and her band of villains, with Daredevil being one of the victims. And while Deadpool offers his condolences, Elektra shrugs and says; “It’s fine.”
