While Jeremy Renner is eager to return to the MCU as Hawkeye, his recent accident may prevent him from returning with the full force of his prior appearances. It’s possible that Hailee Steinfeld’s Kate Bishop will fully take the mantle of Hawkeye from Clint Barton in the show’s second season, allowing Renner to continue appearing in the MCU without as much strenuous activity. This would also allow Steinfeld to take a much more active role as more than just a sidekick, which seems to be Marvel’s plan for the character.

Jonathan Igla served as the head writer of Hawkeye, with Rhys Thomas and Bert & Bertie directing the six-episode series. Igla and Thomas were also credited as executive producers alongside Marvel Studios veterans Brad Winderbaum, Trinh Tran, Victoria Alonso, Louis D’Esposito and Kevin Feige.
