If you're a Marvel fan, then chances are you'll know Linda Cardellini best for playing Laura Barton in Avengers: Age of Ultron and Avengers: Endgame. While the actress has only ever really played a very minor role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Clint Barton's wife, there's definitely potential for her to return (specifically in that Hawkeye TV series coming to Disney+). 

Cardellini didn't mention that show during a recent interview with Collider, but did express her excitement over being part of such a big franchise, and shared her hopes for Laura moving forward.

"It was one of those things where I was sort of brought into the universe and it truly is its own universe," she says. "It’s its own entity with this fandom that is incredible and to be part of it is, I don’t know, it’s pretty fun. My daughter’s friends love it. It’s one of those kinds of things, you know? So it’s always fun."

"I mean, would I love to see a Laura Barton movie? Sure! But I don’t think that’s gonna happen. I think people are more interested in the superheroes." That's clearly a joke, but something tells us the actress is probably open to reprising the role in Hawkeye down the line.

Casting for that series is still in the very early stages, and Marvel Studios is currently looking for a Kate Bishop (unless Hailee Steinfeld's contractual obligations to Apple have finally been worked out).

Would you guys like to see more of Laura Barton in the MCU?

Well I don't see how there's any chance that she isn't in the Hawkeye series.

@Nebula - Some rumors say that it takes place during his Ronan phase, I dont see her showing up if that was the case.

She's amazing in Dead To Me so it's a shame she'll probably never get a chance to show any of her dramatic chops in the Hawkeye series

@OmegaDaGrodd - right? Dead to me is damn good.

@OmegaDaGrodd - Maybe not to the same Level. But I think she could flex some muscle in a series at least.

I mean, we really know nothing about her character or her past... for all we know, she could be a badass former agent or former adversary or something. (Maybe he kept his family off the books because of her and not himself.)

What I’m saying is, I’m not against more Linda Cardellini.

@Chewtoy - Making her a bad-ass former agent kind of defeats the purpose of Hawkeye having such a mundane home life in opposition to the rest of the Avengers

@tmp3 - A bit, but 1) That has already served its narrative purpose, and 2) it is still a mundane home life (as mundane as a secret farm family can be, I suppose. I’ve never understood how that’s supposed to work. Hawkeye wears no mask... he has to be one of the most famous people on Earth. Does he never go into town with his family? Are they completely isolated there?)

@MaulCipher - That works too... even if it thwarts my efforts to get to see Cardellini in a catsuit.

@MaulCipher - Exactly. I think it's more interesting if he married a completely normal woman to help ground him from all the earth-ending crisis' he finds himself in
