Marvel’s Hawkeye trailer takes aim with Jeremy Renner, Hailee Steinfeld

By

The next television chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe will team Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye with Hailee Steinfeld’s Kate Bishop, another expert archer, when Hawkeye premieres in November. The live-action Disney+ series now has its first trailer, and it offers a distinctly holiday-themed sneak peek at the next adventure for one of Marvel’s Avengers.

Disney and Marvel Studios released the first trailer for Hawkeye on Monday, September 13, and it was accompanied by the show’s official premiere date on the streaming service: November 24.

Arriving just in time for the holiday season, Hawkeye finds Clint Barton (Renner) struggling to get home to his family for Christmas after criminal elements he made enemies of during “The Blip” — the five years between Thanos’ snap in Avengers: Infinity War that eliminated half of sentient life and the return of everyone who disappeared in Avengers: Endgame — track him down to exact revenge. Clint is joined by Kate Bishop, a 22-year-old archer who aspires to become a superhero like Hawkeye, and he must figure out a way to get home to his family with both his life and his festive spirit.

The Witches' Road has lived up to its dangerous reputation. Across the first seven episodes of Marvel Studios' Agatha All Along, multiple characters have met shocking, tragic ends as a result of the Road's trials. Mrs. Hart (Debra Jo Rupp) was the first to go, and she's so far been followed by Alice Wu-Gulliver (Ali Ahn) and Lilia Calderu (Patti LuPone). The latter character dies in heroic fashion at the end of Agatha All Along's seventh episode, Death's Hand in Mine, when she sacrifices herself in order to take out the villainous members of the Salem Seven and buy her fellow witches more time.

Venom: The Last Dance’s ending, explained
Venom and Eddie face away from each other in "Venom: The Last Dance."

Venom: The Last Dance has finally hit theaters, marking the final chapter in Sony's Venom trilogy. Taking place immediately after Spider-Man: No Way Home, this film follows Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) and his slimy buddy Venom as they try to flee from the authorities, as well as the clutches of Venom's evil creator, the dark god Knull (Andy Serkis).

It's been a hectic ride these past three films. Though Sony's Spider-Man Universe failed to live up to its potential with Morbius and Madame Web, audiences can again count on Venom to deliver a wacky, wild adventure. This threequel made for an exciting and heartfelt conclusion to the trilogy that still sets up a dark, epic future for the Lethal Protector. Now that Venom: The Last Dance has premiered, here's a breakdown of the story and what its ending means for the franchise's future.

Don Cheadle hints that one troubled Marvel movie could redeem Secret Invasion’s biggest twist
Don Cheadle stands with his arms folded in Secret Invasion.

It's been a long time since Marvel Cinematic Universe fans have seen the real James "Rhodey" Rhodes (Don Cheadle). Last year, Marvel Studios revealed in its poorly received miniseries Secret Invasion that a shape-shifting Skrull named Raava had been secretly posing as Rhodey for an indefinite amount of time. It was later confirmed by Secret Invasion director Ali Selim that Rhodey was originally kidnapped by Raava and her fellow Skrulls shortly after he experienced his spinal injury in 2016's Captain America: Civil War.

This twist proved to be extremely divisive among MCU fans. Many found it disconcerting to discover that — among other things — it isn't really Rhodey who is shown mourning the death of his best friend, Tony Stark, at the end of 2019's Avengers: Endgame. Don Cheadle, however, doesn't seem to mind the twist … so long as Marvel Studios actually follows through on its original plan for Rhodey.
