Hawkeye arrives on Disney+ this Thanksgiving with the show's first two episodes, and a new minute-long promo for the show aired on ABC last night. There are some great, never-before-seen footage from the series here, including Kate Bishop expressing her excitement to be working with an Avenger.
Ronin can once again be seen in action, but the biggest reveal here is a clear shot of Alaqua Cox's Echo. There's no handprint on her face, but the fact that she's joined by Fra Fee's Kazimierz Kazimierczak (better known as the villainous Clown in the comic books) is definitely interesting. Clearly, she's going to start off on the wrong side here, but is The Kingpin, Wilson Fisk, pulling the strings?
That remains to be seen, but it feels like Hawkeye could be a real game-changer for the MCU. After all, Hailee Steinfeld's Kate Bishop is a character who could soon be an Avenger in her own right.
"Set in post-blip New York City, former Avenger Clint Barton has a seemingly simple mission: get back to his family for Christmas. Possible? Maybe with the help of Kate Bishop, a 22-year-old archer with dreams of becoming a Super Hero," reads the synopsis for the series. "The two are forced to work together when a presence from Barton’s past threatens to derail far more than the festive spirit."
Starring Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton/Hawkeye and Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop, Hawkeye also features Vera Farmiga, Fra Fee, Tony Dalton, Zahn McClarnon, Brian d’Arcy James and newcomer Alaqua Cox as Maya Lopez. Helmed by Rhys Thomas and directing duo Bert and Bertie, Hawkeye is set to debut exclusively on Disney+ on November 24, 2021...with the first two episodes!
