I wantto skip but its probably just siX episodes and I don't want to miss any live action content from Marvel Studios.
Sources say Echo will include a plotline in which Daredevil, whose alter ego is blind attorney Matt Murdoch, is searching out a former ally. Podcast The Weekly Planet has reported that ally is Jessica Jones, another Marvel character who toplined her own Netflix series and was played by Krysten Ritter. If Ritter as Jones does indeed make an appearance in Echo, that would leave Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and the Punisher as the street-level crime-fighters still left to be re-introduced into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
According to the guys on The Weekly Planet podcast (who have shared several reliable scoops in the past), Daredevil will feature in three episodes of the Hawkeye spinoff. The vigilante will reportedly be sporting a black and red suit - not the yellow costume that was previously rumored - and is said to be "looking for Jessica Jones
Good to see an official confirmation. Fingers crossed the tone won't be as cartoony as in Hawkeye.
Yeah I was happy seeing Kingpin, but it quickly became clear that this wasn't the Netflix version. This was almost a cartoon character.
I'm a bit worried DareDevil will also be turned into a generic MCU hero. Quips and they'll give him some flashy moves... but nothing too violent, you have to think about the kids watching
Kind of a shame they announced the return. It would've been an awesome surprise to see DareDevil just show up... but nobody was excited about this show, so I get why they did it.
Agreed, I was pretty disappointed with what we saw of Kingpin in the Hawkeye show.Yeah I was happy seeing Kingpin, but it quickly became clear that this wasn't the Netflix version. This was almost a cartoon character.

The trailer opens with scenes of Echo's family and ancestors. She opens a prosthetic leg that’s covered in gold - a leftover from her days with the Kingpin, perhaps. She's out on a mission, ambushing a street gang in a bowling alley with a gun. Then, she looks at her hands which are glowing...
Next thing we know, Echo is on a train. Scenes of her fighting are cut together with scenes of black and white cowboys shooting native Americans. Poignant, considering her own native American heritage. Then, Echo comes face to face with the Kingpin himself... and it seems he's missing an eye.
After the clip, Daredevil star Vincent D'Onofrio explained why he loved being back as Kingpin.
"To bring Fisk and Maya back together again was an absolute thrill," he said. "I saw Alequa’s capabilities when we did Hakwyeke and we had some crazy scenes. To be with another actor that has the talent that she does where we’re just 1 on 1 with each other it’s full-on of her capabilities.”
