JOE meets Elodie Yung to talk about being a huge Daredevil fan, playing Elektra and kicking The Rock’s ass

Mess with Elodie Yung at your peril; she has a black belt in karate.

Elodie was able to put those martial arts skills to good use in her new role as Elektra in Daredevil, which returns to Netflix for a second season.

We caught up with Elodie in her hometown of Paris earlier this month and she told us about the challenge of playing Elektra and how she was a huge fan of the show before she became involved.

She also told us who she thinks would win in a fight between her Daredevil co-stars Charlie Cox and Jon Bernthal and The Rock, with whom she shared a screen in G.I. Joe: Retaliation in 2013.
