When it comes to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it's hard not to be greedy. Despite us getting nine episodes of WandaVision, for example, fans were often disappointed by the runtime of each instalment, always wanting just a little more. As for Hawkeye, the first two episodes clocking in at over 45 minutes each was by no means a bad thing as it gave the story plenty of space to breathe.
However, insider Amit Chaudhari (who frequently shares a lot of accurate runtimes for Marvel movies and TV shows) has now revealed that the combined runtimes for Hawkeye episodes 3 and 4 will be 80 minutes in total. They could be 40 minutes each, or one might be 30 minutes and the other 50 minutes; either way, this is probably a little less than some fans were hoping for.
Still, with a total of four episodes left, there's plenty of room for this story to continue to play out in a satisfactory way.
Marvel Studios managed to cram a lot into that two-part opening, anyway, and fans have already fallen in love with Kate Bishop. On Wednesday, we're anticipating the spotlight shifting to Echo.
In our review, we said: "Marvel Studios is once again sleigh-in' it with Hawkeye, an unmissable Christmastime team-up bringing holiday cheer to the MCU with top tier storytelling delivered in the Mighty Marvel Manner and a bold, brilliant new hero in Hailee Steinfeld's Kate Bishop."
Check back here on Wednesday for all the biggest reveals from Hawkeye's third episode.
