Jennifer Garner is taking a stroll back to her acting career and the “crazy” stuff she has done for the job.

The 53-year-old actress took to her social media account and opened up about the unusual things she has had the opportunity to do in her decades-long acting career.

"I am grateful that my job asks me to learn bits of so many things," Garner began in her Instagram stories while sharing a few of her career highlights.

"Grateful for patient teachers. And am grateful for everyone here who plays along,” she continued.

She listed the “crazy” task she has done in the industry, includes, learning "all the spy languages," taking "equestrian lessons," "learning to fight" for her role in 2002 Alias, learning "all the weapons, but mostly sais" for her role as Elektra in 2003's Daredevil, 2005's Elektra and 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine and learning to "turn wood."

Garner concluded her throwback glimpses with a video of her in a 1998 episode of Fantasy Island, portraying a dolphin and wrote over the clip, "was a dolphin."

This post came after her longtime friend Reese Witherspoon also posted a similar post on her Instagram account on November 23.

“My name is Jen and today I’m grateful for this beautiful day, for life, for the Los Angeles community who is here taking care of their own, for my family, all the things,” she said in a clip posted on her social. “Wherever you live, there is somebody helping feed people who have food insecurity and people who are unhoused. Find those people and help them.”
