Hawkeye is an upcoming action-drama superhero American TV series. It is created by Jonathan Igla. It is based on Marvel Comics featuring the characters Clint Barton/Hawkeye and Kate Bishop/Hawkeye by Stan Lee and Don Heck. It is executively produced by Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Trinh Tran, Rhys Thomas, Jonathan Igla, and Brad Winderbaum.
In this series, Renner is renewing the role of Clint Barton aka Hawkeye from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), while Steinfeld is portraying the part of Kate Bishop.
The project, which hails from Marvel Studios, is being planned as a graduation point for Renner’s Barton where he passes on the Hawkeye mantle to his young protege Bishop.
“(Kate is) a 22-year-old kid and she’s a big Hawkeye fan. She has a wonderfully annoying and equally charming manner about her because she’s such a fangirl of Hawkeye,” Renner told the outlet.
“The relationship grows from that, but the biggest problem for Clint is Kate Bishop and the onslaught of problems that she brings into his life,” he added.
Renner’s age is 50 and he played the role of mentor figure to Steinfield both on and off-screen as Hawkeye is her first project in the MCU.
“That was always my role. Outside of acting in the thing, I was protecting her and giving her the CliffsNotes on how it goes with this kind of filmmaking: Green screen, superhero life, all that stuff,” Renner said.
“I just wanted to protect her, because there’s a lot of physical stuff. She’s a wonderful actress, a wonderful human, and I can’t wait to see all the cool stuff that she’s able to do,” he added.

Hawkeye stars Jeremy Renner, Hailee Steinfield, Fra Fee, Tony Dalton, Alaqua Cox, and Zahn McClarnon, Brian d’Arcy James. It also stars Vera Farmiga as Kate’s mother Eleanor Bishop as well as Florence Pugh, who is reprising her character Yelena Belova from the MCU film Black Widow.
