Deadpool: Want to talk about what's haunting you, or should we wait for a third act flashback?
Trivia: Because this film went into production during the midst of the Writers' Guild strike, Ryan Reynolds, as one of the film's writers, was not allowed to ad-lib his dialogue on set.
Question: Deadpool knows that he is in a film, which explains why he can easily recognise everyone, including Wolverine, X-23, Johnny Storm, Blade, Ant-Man, Sabretooth, Juggernaut, and even the actors playing them. So why didn't he recognise Elektra? Jennifer Garner's popularity alone should have made it easy for him.

Answer: Part of the novelty of knowing that he's in a film means servicing the plot, especially as a proxy for those audience members who may not be as familiar with some characters. Deadpool also does seem to know who Elektra is, as he apologises to her upon hearing about Daredevil's death, even though he just met her moments earlier.
