What exactly Hawkeye will be getting up to in Avengers: Infinity War remains to be seen right now. Will he have retired? Is he going to be on a solo mission? Is he dead? Well, we'll find out next month but it definitely sounds as if we should expect some pretty cool things from the fan-favourite archer here.
During an on-set interview last year, Marvel Studios prop master Russell Bobbitt talked to the press about a number of topics, including the new costumes and gadgets we should expect to see here.
Interestingly, he actually singled out Jeremy Renner's Clint Barton, noting: "Hawkeye is getting a lot of cool new stuff. We're developing a lot of interesting stuff for him. All in the, sort of, bow related but some new gadgets he has in addition to the bow." He went on to assure fans that Hawkeye is "totally there" and "a part of the world!" That's definitely going to come as a relief to fans of the character.
The prevailing fan theory is that Hawkeye will be the one who finds the Soul Stone, something which would give him a key role to play in Avengers: Infinity War. Then, there's the possibility that Hawkeye's family are somehow killed during Thanos' invasion which leads to him becoming Ronin instead.
