After a dismal 2023, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is in need of a lift, and its upcoming TV series Echo, which received favourable early reviews for its grim miniseries, gives some hope for the new year. According to reports, critics who saw the first two episodes of the upcoming series at a UK preview screening gave Echo very positive early reviews. The action and “grounded” storytelling of the first few episodes of the Phase Five series have garnered a lot of positive social media reviews. Paul Klein of No Majesty stated, “Echo is the grit-filled remedy if the MCU’s world-ending stakes have you yearning for something more grounded. After watching two episodes, this action thriller is intense and has a strong Native American cultural feel. I’m eager to see the top three when they release in January.”
Podcaster Tyrell Charles, meanwhile, was captivated by the action sequences and gave the show credit for emphasising Maya Lopez’s upbringing. I’ve seen three episodes of Echo. A story that is grounded, focused on characters, and hinting at bigger things to come. I find it fascinating that there is such a strong emphasis on Maya’s indigenous heritage and personal history. Although there are some quiet passages that slow down the action, the action scenes are really brutal, according to Charles. While some critics have expressed curiosity about what lies ahead for Echo, others have brought up concerns regarding the plot and artistic choices. “Enjoyed the first two episodes of ECHO which had an incredible (and violent) fight scene I want to watch again and again,” said Emily Murray of Total Film. Although I’m always drawn in by the amazing sound design created by Alaqua Cox, I thought the storytelling and pacing were a little off. eager to see what’s left!” Furthermore, Tom Percival of The Digital Fix stated that while he wasn’t a fan of every creative decision made for the first two episodes, Daredevil fans still had something to look forward to. I watched the first two episodes of Echo tonight, and I’m thinking a lot. Fans of Daredevil on Netflix will probably enjoy it. Marvel seems to have remembered that it can be sinister and violent. Alaqua Cox is incredible! I don’t agree with all of the creative choices, though,” he remarked. It is anticipated that Maya will make an appearance in the upcoming Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again, with Echo serving as a prelude to her appearance.
Starring Vincent D’Onofrio and Alaqua Cox, Echo follows Maya (Cox) as she attempts to put her past with the Tracksuit Mafia and Wilson Fisk/Kingpin (D’Onofrio) behind her and re-identify with her native roots in Oklahoma. Nevertheless, Maya and Kingpin subsequently come into contact once more when they must band together to defeat a shared foe. The series is the first TV-MA-rated programme in MCU history and is a spinoff of the 2021 miniseries Hawkeye. Echo is the first series to air under the Marvel Spotlight banner, which is largely responsible for the grounded storytelling. The goal of Marvel Spotlight is to deviate from Marvel’s big-budget model while telling more “character-driven” stories with its shows. Echo is a television series that was created by Marion Dayre and directed by Sydney Freeland. It consists of five episodes that will be released concurrently. Following the recent setbacks of She-Hulk: Attorney-at-Law and the first Phase Five series, Secret Invasion, Marvel will be hoping for better outcomes for Echo.
