Florence Pugh, Vera Farmiga, & More Join Hawkeye Disney+ Series

The Hawkeye Disney+ series is taking shape. After some rumor & speculation, it has been announced that Black Widow’s Florence Pugh is officially joining the series. Other new names added to the show include Vera Farmiga, Fra Fee, Tony Dalton, Alaqua Cox, and Zahn McClarnon. Also apparently cast is Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop. From what I’ve seen, there hadn’t been an official announcement but the actress has been teasing it for days & there have been photos of Jeremy Renner & her on set. Not sure why they’re not blasting this out but it looks like she’s officially on board.

Farmiga is attached to play the Marvel character Eleanor Bishop, the mother of Kate Bishop (Steinfeld). Fee will play a character named Kazi, most likely short for Kazimierz Kazimierczak, known to Marvel fans as the mercenary villain Clown. Dalton will play Jack Duquesne, more than likely a take on the Marvel character Jacques Duquesne or Swordsman. An early mentor to Hawkeye, Swordsman has been both a hero and a villain in the Marvel comics.

Pugh will reprise the role of spy and assassin Yelena Belova, the sister of Black Widow. Pugh is set to play the character in the upcoming film Black Widow opposite Scarlett Johansson, who has played the title character in multiple films throughout the MCU. That film is scheduled to be released in May 2021 after being delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. McClarnon will play the role of William Lopez, likely a take on Maya’s father Willie “Crazy Horse” Lincoln from the comics.

Hawkeye is one of several six-to-eight episode Marvel shows hailing from Kevin Feige’s Marvel Studios set up at Disney+. WandaVision is set to premiere on January 15 on the streamer, with The Falcon and Winter Soldier, Loki and Hawkeye on deck for later in 2021.
