I knew about MARVEL reaching out to the Choctaw nation for accuracy and helping with production, but I didn't know they were going to dub it over in Choctaw as well! It's really amazing to see and should hopefully raise indigenous/native Ameicans' voices more

[@nebullae]

raising native voices with the dubbing, literally! really cool move by marvel

[@AVR0709]

Well they did do a Choctaw trailer, so I saw this coming. But yeah they really did go all out with this one.

[@Renny_bear_Edits]

[@Geeksmithing]

They did the same thing with Prey, releasing a version in Comanche. It’s pretty awesome.

[@johnshilling4630]

While I'm not a Native American I have the privilege working for the Choctaws for almost 11 yrs. Hands down some of the best humans I've ever known and this chance to highlight their culture is well deserved.

Worst case, even if we end up with a flawed season of television, this is a huge step in the right direction for the MCU. The tone, the cinematography, the grittiness, the more they experiment with this the more they can learn & apply what works to future projects

[@bluesorcerer83]

And they still need to adapt the X-Men stories into the MCU, where there are also several very cool Native American characters (Thunderbird, Warpath, Mirage, Forge, among the most famous). But I agree, both Echo and Kahhori are awesome! I am especially in love with our Mohawk hero.

YES choctaw culture is one of the most beautiful parts of this world.

[@tamlynn786]

Yakoke.

[@ShirleyABurton]

I’m looking very forward to this. Marvel is going to places we never expected. To get fully involved with the Choctaw Nation means Marvel *truly* wants to get this right.

[@jamesstewart8376]

So they wanted to get everyone else wrong?

[@ShiraVT]

@@jamesstewart8376 That's not at all what's being said here. They are doing better to respect the Choctaw nation. Representation as a whole hasn't been good for the most part when telling Indigenous stories or with indigenous characters. Involving the Choctaw nation in the process of this story is such a big step from what's been shown before. It means they are at least trying to be better than they were in the past. It's a massive win for the Indigenous community as a whole, not just the Choctaw nation.

[@Hyrulepimp]

As a Native, I'm happy to see brothers and sisters get so much recognition for their contributions to the this and along with What If. This is absolutely beautiful, and I can't wait to see it.

[@kelbylefsrud6158]

That’s incredible. The representation of the Choctaw people, the collaboration with them, having the screening be at their heritage site and having their language be used as an audio option for the show. This is going to mean so much for people and I love that Marvel is sharing these stories and having a superhero who is Aboriginal (Native American).

[@GarretEvans]

Choctaw is my tribe, and I recognize the president of the Choctaw Nation in this video. It’s cool to see stuff you are familiar with in high profile things.

[@Marvelousgamer7697]

This is a level of humanity and understanding that I thought big corporations would never be able to achieve but it's always important to remember that these big corporations are made up of people a lot of people do want try and understand the complexities of these cultures and are willing to reach out and ask for assistance and that's the most beautiful thing about art especially in the modern era!

[@sillyskater2]

The scene about “echoing through us” kind of confirms the rumors of Echoes powers and probably where she takes her name from.

[@cameronweaver2013]

I'm not too familiar with her comic counterpart, but I don't believe she ever had superpowes? I'm interested to see the MCU take on her and what "powers" she might get. I just hope her getting powers doesn't overwrite her characteristics or portrayal as I can see some people just going "wow, another person with powers" and not being interested.

[@microscopic.caterpill]

@@cameronweaver2013The only comic power I know so far that Maya has is from the Phoenix Force so I agree. I read a loose prediction that her ‘power’ is past through generations. I guess if they do they want to differentiate her ability from Taskmaster, but I hope they keep her street level.

Let us not forget to thank PREY for taking a big step in this direction with their movie. I’m happy for the Choctaw and for ECHO, too, and I’m excited to see the series.

I really love how Marvel incorporates different cultures into the roots and backstories of different characters like Black Panther, Ms Marvel, Shang Chi, Namor and now Echo, which really gives a sense of intrigue and learning about different heritages and cultures in a unique way. I really hope we see more of this dynamic and compelling use of representation in more CBM and hopefully with characters like the X-men since many of their characters are rooted in different countries and cultures

My wife is Comanche. One of the most difficult realities that I’ve seen as a witness to her culture is the slow decline and loss of the Comanche language.

Seeing proper representation and involving members of the Choctaw nation is very cool. It makes me very happy to see it done in a way that includes and honors their wishes. In my opinion, this is the right way to do it. I say ancestors because I was adopted and was not raised in the same place as my ancestors.. It's a bit of a mess but that's the TL;DR of it.

[@Malkinian]

It's great to see how much work Marvel put into this and how authentic they want to represent the Choctaw. I'm not one who's very passionate for representation in movies. Ultimately I just want to be entertained, but when they pay special attention to cultures like here and Muslims in Ms. Marvel, it's great to see they do their homework. I expect what's gone wrong with the MCU since the Infinity Saga (and not nearly as much as people say IMO) is slowly turning around. What If? S2 was a success. We'll see how this show is received, but at the very least the grounded mature focus plus a darker Kingpin than we got in Hawkeye are surely welcome. Marvel definitely overplayed their hand after COVID, but it's understandable since they went a year and a half without a release. Only one movie release in 2024 and a few shows should definitely ease fan fatigue. Who knows how the MV Saga will pan out with Jonathan Majors out, but I hope they recast Kang and stick with it.
