The Plot
As per reports by Variety, the Hawkeye series will mainly focus on Clint Barton and his next successor, Kate Bishop. The tv series is interpreted as an “adventure series” as Clint will “pass the torch to Kate Bishop.”
Hawkeye is also foreseen to explore Clint’s duration as the bloodthirsty anti-hero Ronin during the five years in the Avengers: Endgame when his family disappeared with the snap.
According to speculations, Hawkeye will likely lose his hearing, which preps the entrance of Clown, a villain who injured Clint with many arrows and eternally harmed his eardrums. Variety also reported that a new character, Kazi will emerge in the series, giving credence to Clown as one of the series major villains.
