Jeremy Renner returns to lead the cast of Hawkeye as Clint alongside Hailee Steinfeld in her MCU debut as Kate Bishop and Alaqua Cox as Maya Lopez/Echo, Tony Dalton, Fra Fee, Brian d’Arcy James, Aleks Paunovic, Piotr Adamczyk, Linda Cardellini and Vera Farmiga. The series also saw the interesting return of Black Widow star Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova to go head to head against the nominal legend after being recruited by Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ Valentina Allegra de Fontaine in the film’s post-credits scene. Yelena wasn’t the main star to make their MCU return in Hawkeye.
On the heels of the latest part of the show broadcasting on Disney+, Vincent D’Onofrio took to Twitter to share a Hawkeye episode 5 closure picture commending his re-visitation of the MCU. The Kingpin star matched the picture of his person’s silhouette in the end credits with a subtitle of one of his notorious monologues of “When I was a boy…” Check out D’Onofrio’s post underneath:
D’Onofrio’s return as Kingpin has been one of the most conjectured elements of Hawkeye since the series first started improvement and Maya Lopez/Echo was reported to make their MCU debut. Those acquainted with the comics will know about the close relationship the two had as Kingpin killed her dad and embraced her as his own little girl, thusly working for himself and serving as a vital antagonist to Daredevil for quite a while. Hawkeye had been setting his return up since episode 3, in which her dad was killed by Ronin and she was taken in by an uncle whose sole physical appearance was a hand holding her cheek.
Consistent with directors Bert and Bertie’s assertion, the appearance of D’Onofrio’s Kingpin in Hawkeye illuminated social media as audiences commended the fan-most loved miscreant from the Marvel Netflix universe to the MCU. With Daredevil currently sanctified to some degree in what many consider to be the bigger MCU, consideration is presently being coordinated towards this week’s Spider-Man: No Way Home to whether rumors of Charlie Cox’s return as Daredevil end up being valid. The truth will surface eventually when the webslinging threequel hits theaters on Friday followed by the Hawkeye finale on December 22.
