Watch Echo
All five episodes of Echo will be available to stream globally from 9pm ET Tuesday, January 9 (2am GMT Weds morning) with a subscription to Hulu (US) or Disney Plus (UK).
The first new Marvel Studios project of 2024 has landed, with an edgy new miniseries following the travails of Maya Lopez called Echo.
Starring Alaqua Cox in the lead role as the deaf Native American Choctaw with superhuman powers, the show follows on from the character's appearance in the recent Hawkeye series.
Having led the Tracksuit Mafia, a criminal gang working for Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio), Maya is now on her former paymaster's hit list after betraying him, leading her on a journey back to her hometown in Oklahoma to reconnect with her heritage and come to terms with the past.
The show is the first to bear the new Marvel Spotlight tag, with the banner designating standalone, character-driven stories that new fans can enjoy without needing to be up to speed with other Marvel content.
Disney has placed a review embargo for Echo which doesn't lift until the show’s release, meaning we're not yet sure what the critics make of this latest Marvel offering, but with its MA rating in the US – the first for a Marvel show – it looks like we're in store for something hard-edged.
All five episodes of this new miniseries drop at 9pm ET on Tuesday, January 9, and all over the world at the same time. Read on as we explain how to watch Echo online from anywhere.

What is the new Echo release date and time?
All five episodes of Echo will be available on demand from Tuesday, Jan. 9 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT / 2 a.m. GMT (Jan. 10) / 11 a.m. AEDT (Jan. 10).
What else should I know about Disney+?
Echo is the latest in a string of exciting new releases exclusive to Disney Plus, following on from Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny. There's plenty more to come too, with Star Wars: The Acolyte set to arrive later in 2024.
You'll also find National Geographic documentaries, Disney and Pixar classics, the entire Star Wars saga and every season of The Simpsons.
Star on Disney Plus, meanwhile, has seen the amount of content available through Disney Plus more than double, with a particular eye on more grown-up shows. Some of the best Star on Disney Plus shows include The Bear, Only Murders in the Building and Solar Opposites. And parents won’t have to worry about their kids accidentally seeing inappropriate content, as Star includes a slew of parental control features to ensure the service stays as family-friendly as ever.
Star on Disney Plus is available in the UK, most of Europe, and other select markets like Australia and New Zealand – but not in the US, where the media giant's Hulu service already has very similar ground covered.
So, what devices can you watch Disney Plus on? The streaming service has apps for iOS and Android (of course) and is available to watch online via the likes of Amazon Fire TV Stick, PS4, Xbox One and Roku streaming devices.
