"Spider-Man is in a lot of trouble and S.H.I.E.L.D. brings in Hawkeye to sort of act as his bodyguard and then it just goes awry," says Marvel Entertainment's head of television Jeph Loeb in an interview with TV Guide.
"We looked at those '80s movies with two guys who should never be partners, like Lethal Weapon, and that's what you get with Spider-Man and Hawkeye as they go up against a major super villain [The Beetle]. They may kill each other before they stop the guy."
Hawkeye will be voiced by Troy Baker, who will also voice the character in another upcoming Marvel cartoon series,
Avengers Assemble.
Ultimate Spider-Man airs Sundays at 11am/10c on Disney XD.
