Marvel Studios has dropped a new promo for Hawkeye that drives home the fact that this series will deliver a Christmastime adventure like nothing we've ever seen in a superhero franchise before.
Iron Man 3 is the closest the genre has ever really come to a story set during the holiday period, and it looks like Clint Barton is going to be thrust into a crazy set of circumstances over the course of this Disney+ series. The same can be said for Kate Bishop, though, as we see more of her as Ronin here.
"It's genuinely not what you expect from Marvel [Studios]," Amber Finlayson (Bert) tells GamesRadar+. "It's an absurd Christmas story. Just starting from that point, tonally, I was tickled. What does that mean? And it's throughout the whole series. It's not what you're expecting it to be."
The first reactions for Hawkeye land on Friday, November 12 (Disney+ Day), so you'll want to check back here then for our take on the last Marvel Studios TV series to hit the streamer in 2021.
"Set in post-blip New York City, former Avenger Clint Barton has a seemingly simple mission: get back to his family for Christmas. Possible? Maybe with the help of Kate Bishop, a 22-year-old archer with dreams of becoming a Super Hero," reads the synopsis for the series. "The two are forced to work together when a presence from Barton’s past threatens to derail far more than the festive spirit."
Starring Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton/Hawkeye and Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop, Hawkeye also features Vera Farmiga, Fra Fee, Tony Dalton, Zahn McClarnon, Brian d’Arcy James and newcomer Alaqua Cox as Maya Lopez. Helmed by Rhys Thomas and directing duo Bert and Bertie, Hawkeye is set to debut exclusively on Disney+ on November 24, 2021...with the first two episodes!
