Marvel Rumored To Be Plotting A Standalone HAWKEYE Movie But Will It Star Jeremy Renner?
With Marvel Studios clearly holding off on revealing its Phase 4 plans, rumours continue to swirl about what's next and there are now rumblings about plans for Hawkeye but who will wield the hero's bow?
Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige recently hinted that Phase 4 will feature new incarnations of some familiar heroes and while it's fair to say most of us assumed that he must be referring to Captain America. However, what about Hawkeye? The buzz surrounding him ahead of the release of Avengers: Infinity War made it clear just how popular the hero is so could a solo outing now be in the offing?
According to MCU Cosmic (the same site that dropped that news about The Eternals), Marvel may have some loose plans for a couple of different characters to receive the spotlight in a solo movie and Hawkeye is one of them. The site notes that what Feige has said about "different incarnations" of the heroes we know and love ties into what they've heard about the archer. What does that mean?
Well, it could be a couple of different things. We may see Hawkeye suit up as Ronin on a permanent basis or Kate Bishop could take over the mantle, providing the studio with another female lead to build a franchise around. It would certainly be a fun direction to take things in but the site cautions that these plans are very tentative and not confirmed. What do you guys think? Share your thoughts below.
