MCU: 10 Marvel Characters Who Could ACTUALLY Replace Spider-Man

10. Kate Bishop

This list will be focussing in characters not yet in the MCU, although with Kate Bishop that qualification is being cut awfully fine. Bishop will debut in Disney+ show Hawkeye, which will likely provide her a pathway into the MCU proper.

Jeremy Renner’s Clint Barton is expected to step aside after the show, making it possible for Kate Bishop to fully take his place. The character has only been around since 2005, but has already led the Young Avengers and West Coast Avengers in that time. She’d be replacing Spidey as the youngster, but she’s a helluva lot more mature than Peter.

Tony Stark and Peter’s dynamic was incredible, but Jeremy Renner is a magnificent character actor too, delivering his best MCU performance to date in Avengers: Endgame. Kate Bishop is yet to be cast, but whoever it is, she and Renner could combine for a twofer to fill the void left by Tony and Peter.

Personality wise, she’s totally different, and will likely get into scrapes nothing like what Spidey experienced. As a rising young star for the MCU though, Kate Bishop might just be the perfect replacement.
