The final trailer has been released for Marvel's upcoming Disney+ series, Echo.
The official premise reads:
'Following the events of Hawkeye in New York City, Maya Lopez returns to her hometown in Oklahoma, where she must come to terms with her past, reconnect with her Native American roots, and embrace her family and community.'
It stars Alaqua Cox, Vincent D'Onofrio, Chaske Spencer, Tantoo Cardinal, Graham Greene, Cody Lightning, Charlie Cox, Devery Jacobs, and Zahn McClarnon.
D'Onofrio and Charlie Cox are reprising their roles as Kingpin and Daredevil from previous Marvel properties.
The character of Echo was first introduced in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Hawkeye. Maya Lopez was the Native American deaf leader of the Tracksuit Mafia who can perfectly imitate others' movements. Within Hawkeye, she hunts down Clint Barton following her father's murder, only to find out that her adopted uncle, Wilson Fisk, was actually responsible.
In May of 2023 it was reported that Marvel executive Kevin Feige was not happy with the close-to-final product of Echo and subsequently ordered a number of reshoots. Eventually, a lot of the production started again with completely new material.
The first trailer was bloody and gritty, akin to the Daredevil series on Netflix. Echo will be different to all other MCU shows in that it is R-rated and will also follow a villain as the main character for the first time.
"We wanted something that, again, if you're coming off of Hawkeye, and you have to keep in mind she's a villain," Echo director/executive producer Sydney Freeland said during the Echo trailer debut event.
"She's a villain. And so tonally, we wanted to lean into that. I think in talking with the executives and our approach, and when building visual style, it was sort of like, 'Oh yeah, lean into that, lean into that.'"
