Hailee Steinfeld may becoming a member of the Marvel family.
First reported by Variety, Steinfeld has been offered a lead role in the upcoming Hawkeye series at Disney Plus.
The limited series will see
“Jeremy Renner reprise the role of the titular bow-wielding hero that he has played through multiple films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, most recently in “Avengers: Edngame.” Should Steinfeld join the series, she would play Kate Bishop. Bishop is a Marvel Comics character who took up the Hawkeye mantle after Clint Barton (Renner). She is also a member of the group known as the Young Avengers. It was reported last week that Jonathan Igla is attached to write and executive produce the series.”
As the MCU shows on Disney Plus are connected to the entire MCU, starring in the series would likely represent a long-term investment in Steinfeld on Marvel’s Cinematic Universe.
