When is the Marvel Echo release date? The MCU is growing all the time, with new characters introduced regularly and supporting characters getting their very own series to play with. Exactly that has happened to Maya Lopez, AKA Echo, who first appeared in the Hawkeye show.
As a deaf, Native American woman, Echo is a unique MCU character, and she also treads the precarious line between being a hero and a villain, which always makes for a compelling journey. Echo’s close affiliation with the Marvel villain Kingpin and her proximity to the street-level crime of the superhero movie world means this Disney Plus series has every chance of being a gritty, violent show akin to the Netflix Daredevil Marvel series.
So, when can we expect the Marvel Echo release date to be? What will happen in the TV series? And who can we expect to show up to fight against or alongside Maya Lopez? We’ve got all the details you need.
Marvel’s Echo release date speculation
All episodes of Echo will be available to watch on Disney Plus from Wednesday, November 29, 2023.
Marvel’s Echo plot speculation
We can expect the Marvel’s Echo plot to explore Maya’s past even further as Kingpin returns from the brink of death.
As always with Marvel, detailed plot points are being kept under wraps, but the last time we saw Maya Lopez, she had just shot Kingpin after learning the truth about who killed her father.
According to the show’s official synopsis, this will be “the origin story of Echo” and will follow Maya Lopez as her “ruthless behaviour in New York City catches up with her in her hometown. She must face her past, reconnect with her Native American roots and embrace the meaning of family and community if she ever hopes to move forward.”
With this in mind, we expect plenty of flashbacks to Maya’s childhood and the traumatic events that shaped her life of crime, intertwined with her present, as she looks to get revenge on Fisk and redeem herself.
Marvel’s Echo cast speculation
We know that Alaqua Cox will reprise her role as the titular character in the Marvel’s Echo cast, continuing her story from the Hawkeye TV series.
As with any MCU outing these days, you can be sure there will be plenty of cameos showing up too. We know that Vincent D’Onofrio will reprise his role as Wilson Fisk AKA Kingpin.
Charlie Cox has also been heavily rumoured to appear as Matt Murdock, AKA Daredevil. The pair are closely linked with Echo in the Marvel comic books, so it figures that they will play a big part in her solo story here.
Zahn McClarnon will return as William Lopez, Maya’s father. If you watched Hawkeye, you’d know that William died years before, so it’s presumed his appearance will be solely in flashbacks. K. Devery Jacobs, Cody Lightning, Chaske Spencer, Graham Greene, and Tantoo Cardinal round out the cast.
Here is the Echo cast:
- Alaqua Cox as Maya Lopez / Echo
- Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk
- Charlie Cox as Daredevil
- Zahn McClarnon as William Lopez
- Chaske Spencer
- Tantoo Cardinal
- Devery Jacobs
- Cody Lightning
- Graham Greene
