10 Characters Who Will Probably Die In 2016's Biggest Movies

2. Hawkeye - Captain America: Civil War

Here's another pick from Captain America: Civil War, because - given the insane nature of its mega-epic superhero vs. superhero plot - a main character (and member of The Avengers) is probably going to die. It's just going to happen. Because, c'mon, the studio can't just kill off a secondary character like Peggy Carter and hope that people will just accept that; this is war, and war means death by way of violent conflict, not due to old age (sorry, Peggy: you were great while you lasted). When you consider all of the characters in the upcoming movie, though, there aren't all that many that the studio would seriously consider killing off. They wouldn't kill any of the franchise leads like Captain America or Thor, nor would they kill any of the characters who have just been introduced. You know, like Ant-Man or The Vision. Which leaves guys like Black Widow and Hawkeye. Black Widow, being one of few strong female characters in the series, is likely to survive the war. But Hawkeye? He's kind of dispensable, and - given his family background - his death would make for great drama.
