SDCC 2019: 7 Biggest Surprises From The Marvel Phase 4 Panel

7. Kate Bishop Joins The MCU

It has been rumoured for quite some time now that Kate Bishop will be joining the MCU, it seeming as though the character would debut in Avengers Endgame, though this never came to be and so fans were left wondering if the hero would ever make the jump from the comics - now though, there is confirmation that she will be.

With the announcement of the Hawkeye Disney Plus series came definite confirmation that Bishop would be joining Clint Barton on-screen, the character's silhouette being shown as a part of the short promotional video that officially revealed the show.

If that video is anything to go by then 2021's Hawkeye will draw heavily from the incredible Matt Fraction & David Aja run on the hero - meaning that Bishop is sure to play a large role, here's hoping that she's as much of a joy in live action as she is in the comics.
