At what's got to be the most inopportune of times, "Elektra" and "Alias" star Jennifer Garner has come down ill with a virus.

Smack dab in the middle of promoting the new season of "Alias" and the January 14, 2005 release of the much-anticipated "Daredevil" spin-off, "Elektra," Garner's illness has forced her to cut back on her promotional duties.

USA Today quotes Jennifer Garner's publicist, Nicole King, as saying the actress is taking things "day by day." The premiere of "Elektra" was planned for the weekend of January 8-9th in Las Vegas. At this time, it's uncertain whether Garner will be up to attending the "Elektra" premiere.
