Cast News for Hawkeye:

  • In addition to Pugh, several other names were announced for the cast late last year, including Vera Farmiga, Fra Fee, Tony Dalton, Alaqua Cox, Brian d’Arcy James, and Zahn McClarnon.
  • Farmiga will play Eleanor Bishop, the mother of Kate Bishop. In the comics, Eleanor Bishop has a direct relationship with the villainous Madame Masque. This could be a hint at the villain’s future involvement in the series.
  • Fee will portray a character named Kazi, which Variety speculates could be short for Kazimierz Kazimierczak, the name of the villain better known as Clown.
  • Dalton will play a character named Jack Duquesne, which is likely a version of Jacques Duquesne or the Avenger known as Swordsman.
  • Swordsman has been both a hero and a villain in his comic history and even played a key role in the recent crossover event “Empyre.”
  • Cox will play Maya Lopez, also known as Echo, an eventual Avenger and a deaf native American character with photographic reflexes.
  • McClarnon will play William Lopez, which is likely to be a take on Maya’s father Willie “Crazy Horse” Lincoln from the comics.

You can catch Hawkeye when it premieres on Disney+ on Wednesday, November 24, 2021.
