The planned ending for Marvel’s ‘Echo‘ series, featuring Alaqua Cox‘s Maya Lopez starting a new chapter as a private investigator in New York City, has been scrapped.
What is the Scrapped Ending of Marvel’s ‘Echo’?
The finale unfolds with Echo embarking on a fresh chapter as a private investigator in New York City. The concluding scene paves the way for the next phase of her journey, as Daredevil approaches her with a new case, seamlessly transitioning into the narrative of ‘Daredevil: Born Again.’
In Marvel’s ‘Daredevil: Born Again,’ Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) and Kirsten McDuffie (Nikki M. James) will team up at a new firm called “Murdock & Associates” after Nelson and Murdock disband.
Vincent D’Onofrio says ‘Daredevil: Born Again’ will have the same mature tone & feel as ‘Echo’. He said, “The attention the big bosses are giving to it is extraordinary. Charlie & I are just amazed by how much they care about this series.”
Marvel recently revealed the first trailer for ‘Echo,’ starring Cox as Maya Lopez. The ‘Echo’ series mainly focuses on Maya’s life, her family, and her history. Cox’s Daredevil will have a cameo appearance, and D’Onofrio’s Wilson Fisk has a big role. Disney+ confirmed that Echo follows the events of Hawkeye (2021) in New York City, Maya Lopez returns to her hometown, where she must come to terms with her past, reconnect with her Native American roots, and embrace her family and community.
