The obligatory "dang she fine af" comment to start things off.

Honestly doubt she will be cast, she is a rising star in film, maybe if it leads to a movie, but are these shows one and done or multi season, cause i really doubt she would do multi seasons

I think she would make a perfect Rogue, but this is answer is suspicious either way

At the moment but she's the best actress I think for the role but we'll see how it goes.

I think Marvel has no intentions of hiring anyone else for the role but her. She'd be perfect. They're just hoping to find an opening in her schedule.

I really wish media outlets would stop asking Hailee Steinfeld about starring in Hawkeye. It is 100% out of her control. If she has a non-compete clause in her contract with AppleTV she legally CAN'T appear in any show on Disney+, a competing streaming service. It's that simple. So talking about the possibility of being on Hawkeye puts her in an extremely uncomfortable and embarrassing position with her employer, AppleTV.

Hawkeye was originally going to be a film before it was moved to Disney+. And it looks like its main purpose is to introduce Kate Bishop. If Hailee Steinfeld was the first choice for Marvel Studios to play the character there would had been no problem getting her even with her streaming contract with AppleTV. Because films & streaming services are not DIRECT competitors. It's only a problem now because Disney+ is involved.

Sometimes I wonder if we're working with outdated information here. Perhaps Hailee Steinfeld was Marvel's choice for Kate Bishop while Hawkeye was planned as a film. And somehow, the media got wind of her being their first choice and played it up as a casting eventuality. But once the show went to Disney+, everything changed and the media still can't let the story go.

In order to get Hailee now, Disney & Apple have to negotiate. And there most likely will have to be concessions on Disney's part because Apple holds all the cards in any discussion. What will Disney concede to get the actress and is it worth it to the company when they can avoid all of this by going with a different actress. Best case situation for Disney if they want Hailee this badly would be to wait out her contract with AppleTV and that means putting Hawkeye on hold for who knows how long.

"using what some could argue is a pretty bizarre excuse! "

Literally the smallest amount of research on the subject of this article would make it clear that she's referencing her career as a singer. Just a modicum of effort to have it make sense, but instead we get "pretty bizarre".

Anyway, I really hope Marvel finds a way to get her on as Bishop, because she's perfect. If it doesn't work out, though, Kitty Pryde is always an option.
