[Ed. note: This post contains spoilers for the end of Echo season 1.]
echo Season 1 ends with a bang as Echo (Alaqua Cox) faces off against Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio). again after confronting him Hawkeye. Along the way, she reconnected with her roots, her family and her self-confidence and was on her way to becoming a hero. She may not have it all figured out yet, but it’s a start – and a better one than working with her “uncle” Wilson Fisk.
It’s enough to make you wonder where Echo might show up next. So far, Echo has only appeared in Hawkeye And echoBut with the MCU branching out further than ever before, it seems like there are plenty of places a hotheaded superhero could pop up – including: possiblya second season of her own show?
Here’s everything we know about Marvel’s future plans for Echo and echo:
Will there be an Echo season 2?
As of this writing, Disney has not confirmed whether there will be a second season echo. The show is currently being announced as a miniseries Hawkeye before. But that doesn’t necessarily mean the show won’t come back.
And it seems like there’s plenty of room to grow in Season 2: While Maya spent all five episodes of echo When she gained her powers, she didn’t get a glimpse of them until Episode 4, and it wasn’t until Episode 5 that she was able to truly use them. If you ask me, that leaves some good origin story material on the table! Between that and her renewed bond with her family, a potential second season could go a long way – even before you have to factor in any future MCU connections Maya might make on other shows. (And even if it meant disrupting the newfound peace she seems to have found in her life; the price of being a protagonist, I’m afraid.)
When will Echo next appear in the MCU?
Alaqua Cox and Echo have not yet been confirmed to appear anywhere else in the MCU. But there’s a Daredevil show in the works (and in the follow-up work), this seems to be an opportunity for them; After all, they had a pretty great fight Echo.
And if Hawkeye Are there any signs that this may not be the end for Cox’s Maya Lopez? Hailee Steinfeld’s Kate Bishop appeared in a teaser scene at the end The wonders appear as Hawkeye’s heir, meaning Echo could find an analogous place somewhere in the MCU. (Although it’s currently unclear what Kate will do as part of Kamala’s team.)
When might Echo Season 2 arrive on Disney Plus (or Hulu)?
If there is one echo Season 2, it might take a while to actually come out. echo was first announced in November 2021, right after Cox emerged as Echo Hawkeye. Since the show won’t be released until about two years later, we’ll probably see it at the earliest echo Season 2 would be 2026.
What does this mean for the Marvel Spotlight?
echo was a unique release for Marvel, not just because it was the first to appear on Hulu (and in full length) rather than Disney Plus. It was also the first entry in the new Marvel Spotlight echo says producer Richie Palmer echo was the right show at the right time.
“I think we said, you know what? echo wants to be his own thing. So let’s allow it,” says Palmer. “When we brought Maya Lopez to life, we wanted to figure out how do we honor that aspect of the comics? How do we keep it dark and gloomy and separate from everything else that was going on?”
“And then Kevin [Feige] came in as we were editing the show and we saw how dark we were pushing it. And he said: Don’t hold back from the violence, don’t hold back from the harshness and that grounded tone, that’s what makes this show so unique and special. So Marvel Spotlight kind of came from Kevin.”
Since Spotlight Offerings are intended as an opportunity for more casual viewing, even without any other MCU knowledge, it’s unclear whether the shows are like that echo A second season is being drafted (or promised or even considered).
