Actress Elodie Yung joins the next season of Netflix series Marvel’s Daredevil.

Yung (G.I. Joe: Retaliation, District 13: Ultimatum) will play Elektra, a mysterious woman from Matt Murdock’s past, whose dangerous and exotic ways may be more than he can handle.

Her casting marks the most recent major addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, following on from Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle, ‘The Punisher.’

“After a worldwide search, we found in Elodie the perfect actress to embody both Elektra’s impressive and deadly physicality, as well as her psychological complexity,” said Executive Producer and Head of Marvel Television, Jeph Loeb. “Paired with Charlie as Matt Murdock, the two will bring one of the most beloved and tumultuous comic book relationships to life with all the accompanying sparks and spectacular action sequences the show is known for.”

Season 2 will begin in 2016.
