It looks like production on Echo has now wrapped, with star Alaqua Cox taking to Instagram to share the news with her followers.
The actress posted a screenshot of a text message she sent to her late father, who sadly passed away last year. “We just wrapped up Echo! I did it dad!!” Cox added, “I know you’re so proud of me, dad. I love and miss you so much.”
Cameras had been rolling on the Hawkeye spin-off in Atlanta, Georgia since June. No premiere date has been set, but the show is expected to hit Disney+ at some point next year.
Echo will follow Maya Lopez, "whose ruthless behaviour in New York City catches up with her in her hometown. She must face her past, reconnect with her Native American roots and embrace the meaning of family and community if she ever hopes to move forward."
The show will also star Chaske Spencer (Wild Indian, The English), Tantoo Cardinal (Killers of the Flower Moon, Stumptown), Devery Jacobs (FX’s Reservation Dogs, American Gods) and Cody Lightning (Hey, Viktor!, Four Sheets to the Wind), with Graham Greene (1883, Goliath) and Zahn McClarnon (Dark Winds).
We recently got confirmation that both Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio will reprise their respective roles as Matt Murdock/Daredevil and Wilson Fisk/The Kingpin.
We still don't know for certain how these bitter enemies will be reintroduced in The MCU, but "sources say Echo will include a plotline in which Daredevil is searching out a former ally." This would appear to confirm a recent rumor that The Man Without Fear will be looking for Jessica Jones, which may well open the door to the likes of Luke Cage, Iron Fist and The Punisher following suit down the road.
It's a little easier to predict what Fisk's role will be. In the Hawkeye season finale, Wilson's "niece" shot him after discovering that the crime-lord was responsible for the death of her father. Reports indicate that the Kingpin will be sporting a patch upon his return after taking the bullet in the eye.
