What is Echo about?

Echo is a Marvel Studios miniseries set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and presented on the Disney+ streaming platform. It follows the character Maya Lopez, also known as Echo, a Native American superhero with the extraordinary ability to perfectly mimic her opponents’ movements. The show serves as a continuation of the narrative from the series 'Hawkeye', with Alaqua Cox reprising her role as the titular character.

It is here that she is forced to reckon with her tumultuous family history, her cultural identity, and the legacy she inherits. Echo is crafted with the intention of providing insight into the community and traditions of Native American people while weaving the character's personal dilemmas into the larger fabric of the MCU. The show boasts a diverse cast, including Chaske Spencer, Tantoo Cardinal, and Vincent D'Onofrio, along with direction lead by Sydney Freeland and head writing by Marion Dayre and Amy Rardin.
