Hawkeye

Clint Barton wants to spend Christmas with his children, but trouble in New York draws him into an unexpected partnership with Kate Bishop. Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld lead a street-level adventure that brings an experienced Avenger face to face with someone who has grown up admiring him.

Kate sees the excitement of a life Clint knows can be exhausting. That contrast gives their teamwork its humor and its friction. Watch how they learn to communicate as well as how they use a bow: the series is most engaging when practical problem-solving reveals the distance between a hero’s public image and private life.

Endgame provides the recent context for Clint’s past. The Avengers is an earlier introduction if you want to revisit him on the team. Kate’s own introduction happens in this series.

Hawkeye follows Clint after the Avengers films and introduces Kate’s place in this corner of New York. Its smaller setting offers a different rhythm from a world-spanning team-up, with family commitments competing against unfinished business.
