Echo looks more like a Netflix Marvel series than a Disney+ Marvel series.
The first trailer for Echo was released today, and the series follows Maya Lopez as she"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." Of course, D'Onofrio's Kingpin was first introduced in Daredevil on Netflix, and it sounds like Echo will have more in common with the Defenderverse than Marvel's Disney+ shows.
"It's our first TV-MA show, so it's a little on the grittier side for Marvel," executive producer Brad Winderbaum recently told members of the press at a trailer event for Echo."And I think again, shows kind of the breadth of what Marvel's capable of. And certainly something, again, if you know the comics and know the history, it feels very in line, but is kind of a new direction for the brand, especially on Disney+.
"We wanted very adamantly to show that these are people in our show," Echo director and executive producer Sydney Freeland explained at the trailer event attended by ComicBook.com."They bleed, they die, they get killed, and there are real-world consequences. And again, talking, it's not the fate of the universe at stake because I think once you go that broad, you can sort of lose sight a little bit. And so that kind of dictated the tone a little bit.
"It's very different," producer Stephen Broussard previously told Collider."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.
