Marvel Phase 4: 10 Latest Rumours You Need To Know
1. Big Plans For A Familiar Face From Daredevil's World
The launch of Disney+ led to Netflix deciding to sever ties with Marvel Television, and TV shows like Daredevil, Luke Cage, The Punisher, Iron Fist, and Jessica Jones were cancelled as a result. Now, the future of those heroes is unclear, though there's a vocal fanbase who want Marvel Studios to #SaveDaredevil and bring Charlie Cox back as the Man Without Fear.
Whatever happens on that front, Murphy's Multiverse has shared a rumour claiming that Marvel Studios casting director Sarah Finn has put out a casting call for a deaf actress who is Native American, First Nations, Indigenous or Latinx and "independent, athletic and bright" to play a character in their 20s. That may not initially ring any bells, but it most definitely sounds like Echo.
A love interest for Matt Murdock who later become a hero in her own right, Echo is actually the original Ronin, so don't be surprised if she crosses paths with Hawkeye in his Disney+ series and helps Clint Barton comes to terms with the loss of his hearing.
