Disney’s latest release date drama shows Marvel is treating an MCU series we’re lucky to have like it’s ‘Secret Invasion’

Disney's upcoming Echo, centered around a Native American deaf amputee superhero, is not getting the attention it deserves compared to other MCU projects.

Despite the show's groundbreaking representation, it faces overshadowing due to release date clashes with other Marvel content.

[{"selector":"#anim-fff1de46-42c1-4405-8795-320e2ab235ec","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-267807e5-487a-4ff4-aa2f-9b1d441a4cd5","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(89.31297%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0525b7fc-e9ef-4d89-8fc2-bd4bd7efc1f9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-096ee25d-80fc-415d-abe0-353997f6b28c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-116.2069%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Disney CEO Bob Iger's earnings call presentation excluded Echo, hinting at potential release change.

[{"selector":"#anim-fe2016e1-f70c-4b68-b009-f3c847b3c89f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2bc76386-e046-41c2-9ccc-0f4bcbddee51","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(89.31297%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a3599535-672a-48ee-aa74-aaa4acd77b35","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-98a8d439-96bb-442c-8981-226249a2e223","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.65495%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

If a date shuffle turns out to be true, it could hinder the show's success, just like what we saw with Secret Invasion swapping release orders with The Marvels.

[{"selector":"#anim-d24159f5-767d-4a23-9d11-4e27876b3f3b","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-1a60c5f6-8a24-4b22-8c3c-3bd2a693e213","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(90.20333%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-baa88896-4a12-4515-a6cb-f44af5eb6989","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e86c5486-c407-4101-8bed-a3b6604b0370","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.2381%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Echo is scheduled for November 29 release on Disney Plus, though changes could still occur.
