I'll admit that I wasn't exactly excited about Marvel's upcoming Hawkeye spinoff series on Disney+. It seemed like an odd choice, given the character's relatively minor role in the various Avengers films. But the studio released the official trailer this morning, and I might just change my mind. Hawkeye looks like a fun, comedy-action holiday romp and will debut on the streaming platform just in time for the Thanksgiving/Christmas season.
Per the official premise:
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. The two are forced to work together when a presence from Barton's past threatens to derail far more than the festive spirit.
Obviously, Jeremy Renner is back as Clint Barton/Hawkeye, as are the actors who played his three children, Cooper (Ben Sakamoto), Lila (Ava Russo), and Nathaniel (Cade Woodward). And thanks to that Black Widow end-credits scene where Yelena (Florence Pugh) meets Valentina (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) at Natasha's grave, we know that she's been manipulated into blaming Clint for her foster sister's death and may well be seeking revenge. Pugh's inclusion in the cast list pretty much confirms that.
