“I think to me shooting Echo 3 felt more like shooting 10 independent movies,” Huisman told Comicbook.com‘s Chris Killian in an exclusive interview late last year. “We were really there on location. We never shot on a stage or anything. We spent about eight months in Colombia. We traveled from Bogota to the jungle to Cartagena in the north of the country and ended up shooting on the islands and it felt like we were always on our toes and trying to catch on to wherever the story was taking us. “
“It felt like 10 films back-to-back-to-back.” Evans added. “But the same film and I think you know, the creative side of it was their intention was to make a a story that didn’t have like a stop and a start per episode; it just swept you up and kept you going for the full 10 episodes which felt very much like making a movie.”
