Yesterday, was the official start of production on Marvel Studios’ Hawkeye series currently filming in New York City as Hailee Steinfeld was confirmed by set photos/footage in the role of Kate Bishop opposite of Jeremy Renner’s Clint Barton aka Hawkeye.
Variety now reports Vera Farmiga, Florence Pugh, Fra Fee, Tony Dalton, Alaqua Cox, and Zahn McClarnon have joined the series.
Here is a rundown of the characters they’ll be playing.
Alaqua Cox is Maya Lopez aka Echo
Vera Farmiga is playing Kate Bishop’s mother Eleanor
Fra Fee is playing Kazi (thought to be villain Clown)
Tony Dalton is playing Jack Duquesne (thought to be Barton mentor Swordsman)
Zahn McClarnon is playing William Lopez (Maya’s father)
The Direct first reported Pugh’s involvement and return as Black Widow’s Yelena Belova.
Baron Strucker’s son Andreas von Strucker also took on the Swordsman persona in Thunderbolts.
It’s more of an info dump than we had been expecting considering how long it took to confirm Hailee Steinfeld as trades had really done a serious update on the Kate Bishop casting in a while. It’s interesting to see if Hawkeye will be using elements of Thunderbolts and if there will be a connection to The Falcon & The Winter Soldier.
