Marvel’s upcoming series, Echo, is generating excitement among fans. Created by Marion Dayre, the show follows Maya Lopez as she returns to her Choctaw Nation roots in Oklahoma after her introduction in the 2021 hit, Hawkeye. Directed by Sydney Freeland and Catriona McKenzie, the series delves into Maya’s standalone narrative of power and revenge. Alaqua Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio reprise their roles as Maya Lopez and Kingpin, adding to the anticipation. Now, D’Onofrio has confirmed that he will also be a part of Daredevil: Born Again.
During an interview, the actor shared that he has had a lot of fun playing Kingpin in Echo and Daredevil: Born Again. Opening up about his co-star Charlie Cox, D’Onofrio said, “We see each other so often. If we are not traveling during press, then we are working together on the show. Over the time we have become really good friends. We think alike in terms of our dedication and commitment to our parts and the writing. Just the whole commitment to the situation we are with in Marvel, we are very similar in our approach to our job. It has evolved into a great relationship.”
Boasting a stellar cast that includes Chaske Spencer, Tantoo Cardinal, Devery Jacobs, Zahn McClarnon, Cody Lightning, and Graham Greene, the series guarantees an action-packed narrative deeply rooted in the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. Executive producers Kevin Feige, Stephen Broussard, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Victoria Alonso, Richie Palmer, Jason Gavin, Marion Dayre, and Sydney Freeland lead the series, supported by co-executive producers Jennifer L. Booth and Amy Rardin. Together, they ensure a culturally rich and compelling storytelling experience.
Marvel Studios’ Echo will premiere on January 10, 2024.
