Spoilers forward for the Season 4 premiere of The Cleansing Girl on Fox, referred to as “My Manner” and streaming subsequent day with a Hulu subscription.
The Cleansing Girl has formally returned within the 2025 TV schedule, almost a yr after the third season ended. “My Manner” wasted no time in organising a vibrant future for Thony and her household, with Russo sponsoring them within the visa course of and even the worst of the mess with Ramona presumably behind them… after which taking all of it away with a serious tragedy. And dang it, seeing Elodie Yung flexing her performing muscular tissues after the lengthy hiatus makes me need to see her again in her function as Elektra within the MCU’s Daredevil world too.
Now, I’m not saying that as a result of Thony was killed off and Yung’s schedule subsequently opened up; the character ended the premiere alive and in addition to might be after shedding her shot at getting visas the straight and slim manner, confronting Ramona in jail, and making a cope with Jorge after saving his life. The massive demise of the episode was Russo, whose demise implies that The Cleansing Girl will not qualify as a TV present that includes a member of the Gilmore Ladies solid. Liza Weil’s time on the Fox present is presumably over, wanting flashbacks or dream sequences.
Thony has been set as much as start working her manner again to her medical profession, albeit by working for the cartel slightly than a extra standard crime-free manner. It stays to be seen if this can result in visas for the household in some way, however no less than the remainder of the household is protected as a consequence of cartel guidelines… in idea, anyway. There’s loads of time for issues to go fallacious, and I’m simply glad that The Cleansing Girl was renewed in 2024 when so many different reveals have been being cancelled. (You could find earlier seasons streaming with a Max subscription now.)
I feel it’s a protected guess that Ramona isn’t achieved with Thony simply but regardless of being caught behind bars, and he or she clearly has robust contacts on the surface. Nonetheless, Thony has been ready to return to training drugs for a while, so it’s straightforward to know why she would go for the association with Jorge slightly than making a cope with the satan… a.ok.a. Ramona.
And what does any of this must do with Elodie Yung’s totally completely different function in a completely completely different TV universe that she hasn’t been a part of since 2017? Nicely, Daredevil: Born Once more premiered in early March to deliver again a lot of the solid from the unique Netflix present that featured Yung as Elektra, together with Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock, Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk, and Jon Bernthal as Frank Citadel, to call a number of. Already renewed for Season 2, Born Once more can be a good time to no less than examine in with Elektra to settle whether or not she’s alive or useless after The Defenders.
Sadly, the chances of Elektra returning could also be higher than the chances of Yung coming again to play her, as rumor had it earlier in 2025 that the MCU was trying to recast the character. Nonetheless, till I do know in any other case, I can have enjoyable imagining what it might be like if Elodie Yung had time between episodes/seasons of The Cleansing Girl to additionally choose up her weapons as Elektra as soon as extra.
For now, you’ll be able to preserve watching Yung as Thony with new episodes of The Cleansing Girl on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Fox, forward of Alert: Lacking Individuals Unit Season 3 at 9 p.m. ET.
