Hawkeye VFX Supervisor Reveals Major Change to Avengers' Battle Depiction

Image
Building from all four Avengers movies and other MCU team-ups, Marvel Studios ended 2021 with Jeremy Renner's first solo series, Hawkeye , on Disney+ in November and December. Kicking things off from the Battle of New York and exploring Renner's time long after leaving the Avengers following  Avengers: Endgame , this show covered nearly two decades of adventures in the MCU timeline. Almost fittingly, the first scene of the series took fans on a trip down memory lane by focusing on Clint Barton's first team-up with the Avengers in the Battle of New York. Although it was largely used to set up Kate Bishop's origin story for becoming the newest MCU hero, the Avengers' first time assembling helped set the tone for everything Hawkeye would add to the narrative. ADVERTISEMENT Hawkeye This battle held more than its fair share of fun moments for fans, from the Hulk cameo that everybody missed to a deleted scene of Kingpin reminiscing on the e...

Kingpin Reacts to Avengers' Battle of New York In Hawkeye Deleted Scene

Hawkeye Season 1 has come to a close, and there has been no word as to if the series will continue with a second outing. The bow-wielding streaming series introduced the world to future MCU stalwart Kate Bishop (portrayed by Hailee Steinfeld), while also serving as a way of honoring Jeremy Renner's OG Avenger Clint Barton. Throughout the project's six episodes, fans came across both new and returning faces, including Vincent D'Onofrio as Kingpin.  D'Onofrio returning to the role of Wilson Fisk was a big deal, as it meant yet another of the Netflix Marvel characters has made the jump into the MCU proper. Fisk served as the main antagonist in Netflix's  Daredevil  series, as the big guy butted heads with Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock.  ADVERTISEMENT Now, despite Kingpin only appearing in the last couple episodes of  Hawkeye,  his shadow loomed large over the series as he worked behind the scenes of the Tracksuit Mafia. This small on-sc...

Little did everyone know Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures were going to deal with it by introducing the Multiverse to Spider-Man, and in doing so, bring back old and beloved faces. Villains from past installments in the franchise got to see the light of day once again. Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock, Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin, and Jamie Foxx all made the cut. ADVERTISEMENT Having five antagonists return from older adventures really showed the richness of Spider-Man’s rogue gallery. It's a vast category of characters, all perfect for the big screen.
