Marvel Cinematic Universe star Alaqua Cox opens up on what she would love to see in Echo season 2. One of the biggest surprise hits for Marvel Studios and Disney+ this year was the Echo TV show, centering on Maya Lopez after the events of Hawkeye in 2021. After the Echo finale’s ending, it is unclear where Cox’s character will show up next, but Marvel Studios is clearly investing more into the new fan-favorite.

Cox spoke about Echo and where she hopes Maya Lopez will go after the Disney+ drama. Cox was asked about what she would like to see happen in Echo season 2, if the show were to return, and she shared the following:

[I’d like more of] Maya’s family. I wouldn’t mind if they went to New York City and all got revenge on those people that have hurt them and also used the powers of their ancestors that they have. I think that’d be cool storyline. And the Green Goblin. That would be pretty cool. I think I’d like to face the Green Goblin.

Outside her own TV show, Cox also spoke about what other characters she would like Echo to meet in the wider MCU. She mentioned wanting to see Maya meet the Avengers, and also suggested a potential project she could return in. She said:

I would hope that she’s able to cross paths with other superheroes as well, for example, the Avengers. That would be a dream come true if she was able to meet any of the Avengers or even if she was in Daredevil [Born Again]. We just don’t know. I’d like to see any of those possibilities.

Why Alaqua Cox’s Echo Season 2 Storyline Needs To Happen

Echo’s Ties To New York City Need To Be Revisited

With the positive critical reception of Echo, another season should be something Marvel Studios and Disney+ take into serious consideration. As Maya has now become a prominent Native American superhero in a major franchise like the MCU, having Echo season 2 would allow the show to explore more of her culture and background. In a landscape that still lacks representation of a lot of marginalized communities, Echo season 2 could ideally lead Marvel Studios to invest in more diverse characters.

There is also the notion of continuing her storyline related to New York, especially as she and Wilson Fisk, a.k.a. Kingpin, are far from done with each other. That’s why Cox’s suggestion of having Echo pop up on the Daredevil: Born Again TV show is a solid idea, especially as she and Matt Murdock already clashed in Echo season 1. As Echo is also now on a more heroic path, having her return to New York, and perhaps aid Daredevil in his battle against Kingpin, would be a way to integrate her more into the larger MCU storyline.

While Echo may have been a minor character in the world of Marvel Comics, it’s great to see the potential that is being realized with her in the MCU. Since Echo season 1 was only five episodes, there is absolutely more story to tell with her, both on and off her solo series. Hopefully, whether it is through Echo season 2 or other MCU projects, it won’t be long until the audience gets to see Maya back in the franchise.

Echo season 1 is now streaming on Disney+.

The latest update on the disappearance of Captain Gus Sanfilippo and his crew from the fishing vessel Lily Jean paints a picture of profound, unrelenting grief as families brace for the inevitable confirmation of total loss. As of February 2, 2026, the U.S. Coast Guard has officially suspended its search-and-rescue operations after exhaustive efforts in brutal conditions yielded only one body recovered, an empty life raft, and scattered debris—no survivors, no further signs of life. The seven men and women aboard are now presumed dead, victims of the merciless North Atlantic during one of the most unforgiving winter storms in recent memory. This is a tragedy that has shaken Gloucester to its core, a town where the sea is both livelihood and legend, and where every family knows the cost of a bad day on the water. The Lily Jean, a sturdy 72-foot groundfish trawler out of America’s oldest seaport, vanished in the early hours of January 30, 2026, approximately 25 miles off Cape Ann, Massachusetts. The vessel was returning home “full of fish” after a grueling trip to the Georges Bank, one of the richest fishing grounds on Earth. Captain Gus Sanfilippo, a fifth-generation fisherman whose name evoked respect across the fleet, led a crew of six others: seasoned deckhands, a father-son team bonded by blood and salt, and a young NOAA fisheries observer whose passion for ocean conservation had just begun to bloom. The alarm came without warning—no frantic mayday over the VHF radio, no final transmission of desperation. At around 6:50 a.m. on that fateful Friday, the Coast Guard’s Boston Sector received an automated activation from the vessel’s emergency position-indicating radio beacon (EPIRB). It was the silent scream of catastrophe: the boat had sunk rapidly, likely capsized or flooded in the freezing chaos, leaving no time for voices to plead for help. Rescue forces mobilized within minutes. An MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter lifted off into whipping winds, small boats cut through 7- to 10-foot seas laced with freezing spray, and the cutter Thunder Bay joined the hunt. They scoured over 1,047 square miles in temperatures that plunged water to a lethal 12 degrees Fahrenheit (-11°C). Air temperatures hovered near zero, and hypothermia could claim a life in minutes. Amid the debris field near the beacon’s last ping, searchers found the grim remnants: floating wreckage, an unoccupied life raft drifting like a ghost, and one unresponsive body pulled from the waves. The identity of that victim has been withheld pending family notification, but it confirmed the horror that the rest of the crew had met the same fate. The Haunting Final Words: “I Quit. It’s Too Cold.” Hours before the beacon cried out, Captain Sanfilippo shared a brief, ordinary phone call with his close friend and fellow fisherman, Captain Sebastian Noto. Around 3 a.m., as the storm built, the two men—often glued together on the water—talked about the brutal conditions. Sanfilippo, a man known for his stoicism and unbreakable resolve, let slip a rare crack in his armor. “He was calm,” Noto later told reporters, his voice heavy with disbelief. But then came the words that now echo like a premonition: “I quit. It’s too cold.” It was uncharacteristic for the veteran skipper. Sanfilippo had spent decades defying the elements—towering waves, icing decks, endless days at sea. Yet in that moment, the cold had penetrated even his iron will. They spoke of the weather, the catch, the long haul home. Then the line went quiet. No one knew it would be the last human voice from the Lily Jean. Noto’s recollection has become a heartbreaking centerpiece of the story, a reminder that even the toughest among us can reach a breaking point. “We usually work together all the time. We are like glue, man,” he said, capturing the deep brotherhood that defines Gloucester’s fleet. A Captain of Legend, a Crew of Heroes Gus Sanfilippo was more than a captain; he was a living link to Gloucester’s 400-year fishing heritage. Fifth-generation, he carried the weight of tradition on his shoulders. Friends described him as generous, wise, and endlessly patient—a mentor who “taught me everything I know now about fishing,” one younger fisherman told Boston 25 News. Massachusetts State Senator Bruce Tarr, who grew up alongside Sanfilippo, called him a “good skipper” on a “good vessel” with solid technology. “How does this happen?” Tarr asked in an emotional press conference. “This was a good vessel, this was a good skipper… it makes it really hard to fathom when you lose a boat 22 miles from shore.” The crew included: Jada Samitt, 22, a recent University of Vermont graduate from Virginia serving as a NOAA fisheries observer. Her family released a statement that captured her vibrant spirit: “It is with profound sadness and shattered hearts that we share the loss of our beloved Jada. She was vibrant and compassionate with an infectious smile and spirit… brave and determined.” Samitt saw her role as essential—not just monitoring catches for sustainability, but as a full crew member contributing to the mission. “We could not be more proud of and grateful to her,” her family said. NOAA suspended observer deployments until February 4 in response to the tragedy and incoming weather. Sean Therrien, 45, a dedicated deckhand remembered for his reliability. John Paul Rousanidis, 33, described by his sister as an outdoorsman and “very generous, very happy” soul. A father and son pair (names pending full release), whose bond on the water mirrored countless Gloucester families. The remaining two identities were expected to be confirmed early in the week following the incident. These were not strangers to danger. The Lily Jean and its crew had appeared in a 2012 episode of the History Channel’s Nor’Easter Men, where viewers witnessed the raw intensity of North Atlantic fishing: multi-day trips in punishing weather, hauling nets for haddock, flounder, and lobster. The show portrayed Sanfilippo as steady and skilled, the kind of captain others trusted with their lives. The Community’s Heartbreak: Flowers, Faith, and Fury at the Sea Gloucester has mourned too many times. The Fisherman’s Memorial, etched with thousands of names since 1650, received fresh flowers, signs, and wreaths over the weekend. Community members gathered at St. Anne’s Church for an emotional Mass, seeking solace amid shared sorrow. “We are deep in sorrow, but we are a strong community and we will rise,” Senator Tarr declared. Governor Maura Healey offered heartfelt condolences: “We join with the families, the fishing community, the city of Gloucester… in mourning this day and in grieving seven brave individuals who were out there doing their job.” Local voices echoed the pain. Ashley Sullivan, a business owner who knew the vessel’s owner, urged reflection: “I hope everyone takes a step back and really looks at the sacrifices these men make on a day-to-day basis just to put food on our table. It’s very emotional and very heartbreaking.” Donations flooded in through Fishing Partnership Support Services, specifically earmarked for the Lily Jean families. NOAA’s suspension of observers underscored the ripple effects: safety first in the face of such loss. Coast Guard Sector Boston Commander Capt. Jamie Frederick called the suspension “incredibly difficult.” After 24 hours of relentless searching amid approaching nor’easter conditions, hope extinguished. “Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family members and friends of the lost crew… and with the entire Gloucester community during this heartbreaking time.” Lingering Questions in the Wake The cause remains under investigation. No collision, no explosion reported. Possible factors include rogue waves, deck icing shifting stability, sudden flooding, or a mechanical failure amplified by extreme cold. The empty life raft haunts: gear was ready, but the sea gave no chance to deploy it. This disaster reminds the world of fishing’s peril—America’s deadliest job. Winter amplifies every risk, yet these men and women venture out for the bounty that stocks tables nationwide. As families brace for formal identifications and memorials, Gloucester clings to resilience. The ocean took seven souls, but it cannot erase their legacy. Captain Gus Sanfilippo’s final, quiet admission of the cold lingers as a poignant farewell from a man who gave everything to the sea. The waves roll on, indifferent. But the memories endure—stories of grit, mentorship, and unbreakable bonds. Rest in peace to the crew of the Lily Jean. Gloucester weeps, but it will rise again.
