Production on Marvel's Hawkeye TV series for Disney+ is well underway with Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld starring as Clint Barton and Kate Bishop, respectively, but the rest of the cast has been filling out as well. Variety has now reported that Vera Farmiga (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It) has joined up as Eleanor Bishop, Kate's mother.
Additionally, Hawkeye will find Fra Fee (Les Miserables) playing Kazi, aka Kazimierz Kazimierczak, better known as Clown to Marvel fans; Tony Dalton (Better Call Saul) playing Jack Duquesne, an early mentor to Hawkeye; newcomer Alaqua Cox playing Maya Lopez, a deaf Native American known as Echo who can copy another person's movements; Zahn McClarnon (Westworld) playing William Lopez, Maya's father; and Florence Pugh (Midsommar) will be reprising her Black Widow role of Yelena Belova. A set-video which made the rounds yesterday also featured Lucky the Pizza Dog, but there's no word on which canine thespian has stepped into the role.
"What I get to do in the show ultimately is shepherd an amazing character, ultimately a better version of me and the sentiment of that is the fiber of what Hawkeye is, at least what I think Hawkeye is — a superhero without superpowers and I get to teach someone else to be a superhero without super powers," said Renner at San Diego Comic-Con last year. In addition to Hawkeye, Marvel is working on several other Marvel Cinematic Universe TV shows in various stages of production which are destined for Disney+, including The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, WandaVision, Loki, What If…?, Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel, and She-Hulk. WandaVision will be the first to arrive when it launches on Disney+ on January 15, 2021.
