There are some interesting facts about the series that you may need to know before watching the series.

The Dunia Games team will discuss facts about the Echo series starting from the release date, plot, synopsis, actors, episodes, to the duration of each episode. Let's see in more detail.

1. Series about Echo's Life

The Marvel Cinematic Universe or MCU has indeed subscribed to presenting quality movies, ranging from movies to series. If a lot of MCU phase 5 movie projects are being aired at the moment, so is the case for the series. The series that will accompany you in 2023 is a series about Echo, a female superhero from Marvel comics whose movies will definitely focus on Echo's story itself.

2. Sequel from the Hawkeye Series

Echo in the MCU is a character from Marvel comics who was first introduced in the Hawkeye movie series in 2021. From the whole story to the end, Echo is indeed quite present in the series. Even towards the end of the series, Echo has the possibility to appear in the next movie from the MCU. But it has been answered from the phase 5 project introduced by Kevin Feige, where the Echo series will actually be present in phase 5 of the MCU.

3. Direct Connection with Daredevil: Born Again

Of course, the Echo series will continue the story of Maya Lopez, a deaf athlete and martial artist with Native American descent who made her debut in the Hawkeye series as a late enemy of Clint Barton and Kate Bishop. In fact, the Echo series will also be a movie series that is expected to lead directly to other Marvel movie series events, Daredevil: Born Again which will come soon or follow after Echo.

4. Old and New Characters

Echo will explore the titular character's roots in greater detail from her previous appearances in Hawkeye. This indicates that there will be several previous MCU actors who will be reprising their roles in Echo. Certainly the majority of the cast will consist of newcomers who have not been shown in other MCU movies. Not only characters, Echo will also present a culture that has never been seen in a live-action MCU, to some that are still secret.

5. Echo or Maya Lopez Will Be Played by Alaqua Cox

Alaqua Cox has indeed made her debut as Maya Lopez or Echo, which is in the 2021 series Hawkeye. In fact, she, who has never acted before, managed to bring Maya Lopez's character to life perfectly, even as the opposite of Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld. As a deaf actor, Cox's role in Hawkeye was critically acclaimed, and that shining representation would continue during her appearance in her debut solo series, Echo.

6. Charlie Cox’s Daredevil

Daredevil, played by Charlie Cox, has been seen quite often in several MCU movies, such as Spider-Man: No Way Home, to the She-Hulk series. Apart from that, there is also a high possibility that Charlie Cox will return to being Daredevil in the Echo series, which indeed will have many scenes involving Daredevil. This is natural, because the series will be a series that leads directly to the Daredevil: Born Again movie series.

7. Vincent D'Onofrio Comeback as Kingpin

In both the comics and the MCU, Maya Lopez or Echo are closely related to Kingpin or Fisk, that's because Kingpin is the one responsible for the death of Echo's father. In the Hawkeye series, Fisk is said to be injured at the last moment, so that creates a possibility that he will return in the Daredevil movies and also Echo. In fact, Kingpin will definitely be back in the series, in which Vincent D'Onofrio will again entrust his role.

8. Zahn McClarnon to Reprise His Role as William Lopez

It's been confirmed that Zahn McClarnon will reprise his role as William Lopez in Echo. McClarnon played Echo's late father, William Lopez.
