Marvel’s Echo viewers will have the option to watch the miniseries in its protagonist’s official Indigenous voice.”Placing the story of Echo in the actual Choctaw language helps make our character more authentic to her heritage, because we get to delve into the specifics of Choctaw culture and traditions,” director Sydney Freeland revealed in a conversation with Entertainment Weekly. Being of Navajo heritage, Freeland pointed out that the two cultures’ languages are inherently distinct so, “one of the things that was important for us was making sure that we had people who were experts in Choctaw language. But a lot of really great things came out of that collaboration — specifically, in the second episode of our series, we actually get to see a portion of pre-European contact America that I can genuinely say has never been seen on film before. That came as a direct result of our collaboration with the Choctaw Nation in trying to tell a more authentic story.”Following Echo’s trailer release in November, Marvel dropped a second trailer with official Choctaw subtitles for supervillain Wilson Fisk’s voiceover narration. Once again, Echo/Maya Lopez and Fisk will be played by Alaqua Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio, with the former debuting in Hawkeye and the latter reprising his iconic Daredevil role in the Disney+ show’s finale. Daredevil star Charlie Cox will also appear on Echo — following brief appearances in Spider-Man: No Way Home and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law — while Devery Jacobs will play a woman named Bonnie, though she dismissed any theories linking the character to her original What If…? heroine Kahhori.
