In the latest teaser, the formidable Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio) takes center stage, displaying an eyepatch concealing the scar inflicted by Maya in the Hawkeye series finale. The intense confrontation unfolds with Kingpin taunting Maya, proclaiming, “You and I – We’re the same. So who’s the monster?” This teaser delves into the overarching theme of the series.
Introduced in the Hawkeye series, Maya Lopez, also known as Echo, initially targets Clint Barton, believing him to be responsible for her father’s death. However, she soon discovers her uncle Kingpin’s involvement and turns against him, setting the stage for Echo to continue her pursuit of justice.
Echo explores Maya’s journey as she confronts her past, reconnects with her Native American heritage, and embraces her family and community. Positioned under the Marvel Spotlight banner, the series prioritizes street-level stakes over broader MCU continuity, ensuring accessibility for viewers, even those unfamiliar with recent MCU entries. The marketing material released so far emphasizes the series’ commitment to delivering uncompromising storytelling and hints at the appearance of Daredevil on the small screen before his standalone series.
The cast includes Alaqua Cox as Maya Lopez / Echo, Chaske Spencer as Henry, Tantoo Cardinal as Chula, Devery Jacobs as Bonnie, Zahn McClarnon reprising his role as Maya’s father William, Cody Lightning as Cousin Biscuits, and Graham Greene as Skully. Vincent D’Onofrio returns as Wilson Fisk, and Charlie Cox makes an appearance as Matt Murdock/Daredevil. Created by Marion Dayre, Echo promises an exciting narrative for Marvel enthusiasts eagerly awaiting captivating stories.
Echo is set to premiere on January 9, with a prime-time release at 6 PM PT/9 PM ET on Disney+ and Hulu. For more information about the series, follow this link and catch a glimpse of the new teaser below.
