The five-episode streaming occasion spotlights Maya Lopez (Alaqua Cox) as she is pursued by Wilson Fisk’s (Vincent D’Onofrio) prison empire. When the journey brings her house, she should confront her family and legacy. All 5 episodes will stream on Jan. 10 on each platforms. They’ll be out there on Hulu till April 9. This marks the primary Marvel Studios sequence to drop all totally bingeable episodes without delay. 

Echo premieres on Disney+ and Hulu on January 10.
