Although the Hawkeye TV series has not been confirmed by either Marvel or Renner yet, it seems like a no-brainer for both parties. The series was heavily rumoured to be in the works last year, and with Renner yet to be the centre of attention in any Marvel film thus far, it makes sense for him to finally get the opportunity to flex his acting chops in a series of his own.

As for Bishop, it has been rumoured that she may already be present in Avengers: Endgame. 13 Reasons Why actor Katherine Langford was cast for an undisclosed part in Endgame back in October, with many speculating that she could be set to play Bishop. Other theories have previously optioned the idea that she could be playing a younger version of Black Widow, but Bishop seemingly fits Langford's profile the better, especially with her past experience with Netflix.

Of course, the most recent Endgame trailer treated fans to a brief shot of Barton teaching his archery skills to an unnamed girl. Many had thought this might've even been Kate, but the more likely candidate is that of Lila Barton, Clint's daughter last seen in Age of Ultron.

If Variety's sources are accurate, it's likely that Kate will be a whole new character. It remains to be seen if she features in Endgame, but with the film set to tee-up both Phase 4 and these programmes, a cameo would seem likely.
