Disney+ Marvel Series ‘Echo’ Begins Production, Reveals First Look

Marvel's Echo series photo new


Your latest Marvel TV passion is about to be exposed in front of the cameras. Hawkeye introduced Hailee Steinfeld's Kate Bishop to the MCU last winter, as well as setting up Alaqua Cox's Maya Lopez for her own spinoff. Maya is set to take centre stage in Echo, which has now entered production in Marvel Studios' frequent home of Atlanta, Georgia, ahead of its arrival on Disney Plus next year. Maya is inspired by the comics character of the same name.

The House of Ideas has released this first look at Cox's homecoming, along with the good news that filming has commenced.

The image, which you can see below, shows Cox's heroine hiding out on the back of a truck, which perfectly captures the show's grounded, street-wise attitude, which it shares with both Hawkeye and Daredevil, with whom it's intended to share DNA.

Lopez was introduced in Hawkeye as the leader of the Tracksuit Mafia, a position she assumed after her father was assassinated by Ronin (really Hawkeye himself, Clint Barton). We then learned that she was Wilson Fisk's loving niece, with Vincent D'Onofrio repeating his role from Daredevil. Maya got her revenge on her uncle after learning that he orchestrated the hit on her father by maybe shooting him in the face.

Fans believe D'Onofrio may reprise his role as Kingpin in Echo, possibly with Charlie Cox's hero - Matt Murdock and Maya are lovers in the comics - because of their intimate relationship to the character. However, none is featured in today's cast list. Chaske Spencer (Banshee), Tantoo Cardinal (Wind River), Devery Jacobs (Reservation Dogs), Cody Lightning (Run Woman Run), Graham Greene (The Green Mile), and Zahn McClarnon (William Lopez from Hawkeye) will all be officially joining Cox (Alaqua) on Echo.

Jessica Jones Highlights Sexist Treatment Of Female Marvel Heroes

Image
Jessica Jones, one of Marvel's most powerful female characters, considers how poorly female superheroes are treated in the society she inhabits. Jessica Jones is not typically the first female superhero that comes to mind. She isn't as eye-catching as Captain Marvel or She-Hulk. With the exception of her time as Jewel, Jess prefers a leather jacket and a cup of coffee than the conventional cape and tights. Jessica Jones offers a perceptive commentary on the present condition of vigilantism and what it means to be a woman in that milieu in Marvel's The Variants. Ten years have passed since Jones was under Kilgrave's, a.k.a. the Purple Man, control when The Variants takes place. Jessica is prepared to retire from crimefighting now that she is married to Luke Cage and has a daughter. The first victim of Kilgrave, Maria Snyder, who is accused of killing her family, makes an attempt to deny responsibility in court. Unfortunately, Jessica is the only one who has an understand...

GoT's Lena Headey Sued Over Cut Thor: Love and Thunder Role

Image
Game of Thrones actress Lena Headey is being sued for $1.5 million by her former UK agency, Troika, for a variety of unpaid commission fees. These costs cover Thor: Love and Thunder, a movie in which Headey was cast but whose producers ultimately decided to delete her scenes. According to Troika, now known as YMU, Headey expressly owes them at least $500,000 for the movie Love and Thunder. Variety has revealed that she did indeed play a part in the original script written by director Taika Waititi, despite the fact that her inclusion in the Marvel Studios summer blockbuster was never promoted or formally announced. That position's specifics are still unknown. Numerous A-List actors were eliminated from Thor 4's final edit, including Headey's role. Christian Bale said that Jeff Goldblum from Jurassic World: Dominion and Game of Thrones co-star Peter Dinklage were cut from the fourquel. “I got to work with Peter Dinklage, that’s not in the final film, but I got to work with ...

Marvel Star Will Poulter Says Superhero Body Transformations Are 'Unhealthy' and 'Unrealistic'

Image
Source: Twitter Will Poulter, one of the MCU's newest actors, has stated that getting a superhuman physical change without a studio paying for your meals and training is "unhealthy" and "unrealistic." In a recent interview with The Independent, he said, "It's difficult to talk about it because with Marvel it's all secret squirrel." "However, the most important thing is that your mental and physical wellness come first, with aesthetic aspirations coming second." If you don't have the financial backing of a studio to pay for your meals and training, you'll wind up advocating something unhealthy and unrealistic.In that regard, I'm in a really fortunate position, and I wouldn't advise someone to prepare for that job the way I did." What is this job that Poulter is referring to? His role as Adam Warlock, a genetically engineered superhuman in the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 film, which will be released next year. La...
