Was Disney's Echo filmed in Oklahoma?
3, 2023, at the Choctaw Cultural Center in Calera, Oklahoma. "Echo" was filmed in Atlanta, Georgia, but is set in part in the Choctaw Nation in southeastern Oklahoma and features a Choctaw main character in Maya Lopez/Echo (played by Alaqua Cox).
Although "Echo," like most Marvel projects, was filmed primarily in Georgia, much of the action is set in Maya's rural Oklahoma community of Tamaha, which is based on a real eastern Oklahoma town formerly in the Choctaw Nation.
In 1984 ECHO Power Equipment Canada was created as a subsidiary and in 1985, ECHO Incorporated established its present-day Americas corporate headquarters in Lake Zurich, IL, a Chicago suburb.
The central character in Echo is Maya Lopez, played by Alaqua Cox, who was born deaf and is an amputee. In Echo, Maya flees home to Oklahoma's Choctaw Nation, pursued by supervillain Wilson Fisk (Vincent D'Onofrio), the head of a criminal empire she once worked for.
It was initially difficult to find locations in Georgia to double as Oklahoma, but the creatives were able to use their trip to the Choctaw Nation and scout the surrounding areas to gather reference photos and information that helped inform them on locations in Georgia that would work for shooting.
Marvel Studios' “Echo” brings a powerful and authentic representation of Native American culture to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Echo filmmakers worked with the Choctaw Nation during all stages of production to ensure the Choctaw culture, language and history were accurately represented.
Set in Oklahoma's Choctaw Nation, Marvel Studio's new miniseries Echo follows Maya Lopez (Alaqua Cox) as she returns home and connects with her Native American roots after a bounty has been placed on her head in New York — and the cast is full of Indigenous people from this side of the border.
Marvel Studios' new series, Echo, is an exciting project where Native representation, specifically Choctaw representation, has been placed squarely at the forefront of creative development.
Disney+ is delivering, offering fans a second season of their hit show Echo. 2021's Hawkeye introduced anti-hero Maya Lopez, played by the dynamic Alaqua Cox.
Echo, real name Maya Lopez, who is Deaf, is a vengeful and bitter Native American hero with a distinctive fighting ability that allows her to copy her opponent's moves. The uppercase “Deaf” refers to deaf people who share a language, identity and culture.
Tamaha is a fictional Oklahoma town that will become a hotspot in the Marvel Studios universe when “Echo“ debuts Jan. 10 on Disney+ and Hulu. FYI, there's actually a Tamaha, Oklahoma, in Haskell County, but the Tamaha shown in "Echo" is a more populous place. “Echo” is an Oklahoma story and a Native story.
Created by David Mack and Joe Quesada, the character first appeared in Daredevil #9 (December 1999). Maya Lopez is a Native American of the Cheyenne Nation. Her Echo guise includes a white handprint that covers part of her face. She is one of the few deaf comic book characters.
Given that Avengers: Endgame pushed the MCU's timeline five years into the future, Echo is set in May 2025. Maya's mom died in a car accident in 2007 and her dad died during the Blip, but the exact date of some present-day scenes in Echo are left ambiguous.
Located in the high desert, Albuquerque enjoys more than 310 days of annual sunshine, keeping film crews on schedule with limited weather-induced delays. Its unique landscape and four mild seasons allow Albuquerque to play the part of nearly any city or location – including Mars.
If you don't see Echo on Disney Plus, ensure your default content rating for the default age restriction selection is moved up in the parental control settings. For example, Disney Plus defaults to TV-14 in the US, but you'll need to move that up to TV-MA.
Identical twins Leni and Gina have secretly switched places for years. But when one sister disappears, both of their lives start to fall apart. Watch all you want. Michelle Monaghan stars in this thriller executive produced by Brian Yorkey ("13 Reasons Why") and Quinton Peeples ("Iron Fist").
Echoes is a mystery thriller about a set of identical twins. Gina and Leni have a deep dark secret: ever since childhood they've secretly switched lives. But this is no Parent Trap, there's no peanut butter Oreos and cute anecdotes in this story. Gina and Leni swapped back and forth into adulthood.
In Echoes, twins Leni and Gina (both played by Monaghan) have always been ultra close — which is why it's especially weird when Gina wakes up one morning to find that her sister has disappeared under very mysterious circumstances.
