- In contrast to the reality-changing “WandaVision” and “Loki” on Disney +, “Hawkeye” is much more grounded.
- With its New York setting and its “street level” heroes, “Hawkeye” is reminiscent of the discontinued Marvel Netflix series.
- A second major direction for the future of the series MCU seems to be heralded here.
The year 2021 heralded the start of the series MCU on the mouse streaming service Disney +. Starting with “WandaVision”, the first Marvel series on Disney +, the MCU multiverse probably found its undeniable climax in “Loki” in 2021. The series “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier” also went around the globe – from the alternative realities of “What If …?” not to mention once.
But the first MCU series year on Disney + ended with “Hawkeye”, a show that could hardly be more grounded. “Hawkeye” with Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton and Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop is set in a single town – and within a single week. The two main characters are heroes who have no superhuman abilities. You are just damn good at using a bow and arrow.
“Hawkeye” proves that the tradition of Marvel Television, the TV productions unit that became Marvel in 2019, is still alive and well. Marvel Television produced in the past, for example, the very popular Marvel Netflix shows “Daredevil”, “Jessica Jones”, “The Punisher” and Co. And the tone of “Hawkeye” now resembles these series with its New York setting. ” Street level “heroes – which seems to be confirmed not least by the great return of the infamous New York underworld boss Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio).
In addition to the sprawling multiverse, Kevin Feige and Co. at Marvel seem to be taking a second direction for the future of the series MCU. And the “Hawkeye” spin-off “Echo” about Maya Lopez, played by Alaqua Cox, is already in the starting blocks.
