A new behind-the-scenes featurette for the upcoming Marvel Studios series Echo has been released.
What’s Happening:
- The featurette begins with a focus on Maya Lopez, also known as Echo, the titular character, who is called “one of the most interesting characters in the MCU.”
- Maya, played by Alaqua Cox, learned everything she knows from Kingpin (Vincent D'Onofrio) – teaching her violence and fear.
- Echo is said to be a more grounded series, where we grapple with the question, is Maya good or bad?
- Featured in the short video are:
- Sydney Freeland – Writer/Executive Producer
- Alaqua Cox – “Maya Lopez”
- Richie Palmer – Executive Producer
- Vincent D’Onofrio – “Wilson Fisk/Kingpin”
- Watch the featurette for yourself below.
