WHAT IF? Could Feature An Episode Where Tom Holland's Peter Parker Becomes...Hawkeye?!

Work on What If? continues, but we've heard very little about the series since last year's Comic-Con. Now, though, some newly resurfaced information may shed some light on the premise for one episode...

While COVID-19 has halted filming on Marvel Studios' Phase 4 productions, work continues on the animated What If? remotely. The series is set to premiere on Disney+ in 2021, and while we know that one episode will revolve around "What If Peggy Carter Took The Super Soldier Serum?," the premise of the others remains a mystery. 

There have been some hints, though, and in a newly surfaced Variety video from last year's San Diego Comic-Con (via The Direct), we may have just discovered details on another possible episode. 

During a recap of the Marvel Studios panel, reporter Matt Donnelly mentions seeing something we definitely couldn't have predicted. "I know it's sort of hard to imagine," he says, "but they showed images of Tom Holland as Hawkeye. They showed Peggy [Hayley Atwell] as Captain America and it's all animated."

It's worth noting that this artwork might have just been there to give fans an idea of what could happen in What If?, so there's nothing to say we will, in fact, get an episode showing Peter Parker becoming Hawkeye instead of Spider-Man (which is a pretty bizarre premise if we're being honest). 

"Marvel Zombies" are also expected to appear in this animated series, while one episode is set to explore what would have happened if Yondu took T'Challa into outer space instead of Star-Lord. 

How would you guys feel about Peter Parker potentially becoming Hawkeye in What If? next year?

OT: Sounds like Alexandre Desplat was let go from Black Widow, instead of leaving due to scheduling
"Desplat gave a clear “no comment” when it came to the finer points of what happened there (“I was attached to that movie, and then I was detached”)"

This show is not what I wanted it to be. It should be like "What if Tony Stark died from the initial blast in Iron Man?" "What if Iron Man hadn't managed to redirect the nuke in The Avengers?" etc. Not "What if [frick]ing T'Challa was Star-Lord?" "What if Peter Parker was Hawkeye?"

"What if Peggy Carter were imbued with the super soldier serum?" is more along the right lines but it's still just "What if this character were this character? Wa-hey!" That's lame.

@Nebula - What if Ultron did what tony wanted? What if Loki died in thor 1? what if Cap never got out of the ice?. That sort of thing would be nice.

@Nebula - I think an interesting premise would be if Ultron actually succeeded

I want an episode that explores what if people that bitched about comic accuracy actually read comics.

What if “X-Hero” was “Y-Hero”?

Maybe Tom Holland's Peter didn't get bit by the spider and instead became Hawkeye's first apprentice before Kate Bishop, thus inheriting the moniker?

What if Punisher and Daredevil were not cancelled for this bull***?
