Even though Echo has been pushed from November into the new year, Marvel Studios is laying the groundwork for the show's release. The Disney-owned studio has started filing the required copyright paperwork for the streaming show, with the filing revealing some more details about the Alaqua Cox vehicle. In the synopsis shared with the United States Copyright Office, it's revealed Echo has officially taken over Kingpin's criminal empire.
"Marvel Studios presents Echo in which Maya Lopez struggles to reconnect with her Native American roots while balancing aspirations tied to a life of crime as successor to the brutal legacy of Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin. In the first episode we are introduced to Maya Lopez and her struggles," the synopsis reads.
The synopsis also teases just how large Kingpin's role in the series really is, with D'Onofrio receiving second bill behind Cox. Other actors in the synopsis include Chaske Spencer as Henry, Tantoo Cardinal as Chula, Graham Greene as Skully, Cody Lightning as Cousin Biscuits, Charlie Cox as Daredevil, Devery Jacobs as Bonnie, and Zahn McClarnon as William Lopez.
What is Marvel's Echo series about?According to Echo producer Stephen Broussard, the series will be one of Marvel's most grounded entries yet. "[Production on 'Echo'] is going well. It's very different. Like, talking about Werewolf by Night to this. It's a very different tonal sort of thing. I don't want to say too much because there's not a whole lot out there in the world, but it feels very grounded, it feels very spiritual in ways that feel fresh for us," he explained."Alaqua as the lead is incredibly compelling.
