MCUs Hawkeye Black Widow & 9 Other Characters That Need To Return In The Disney Series

There used to be a predictable way of knowing where characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe would be showing up next. That was due to stories connecting from the previous movie to the next, but Avengers: Endgame has made anything possible as everyone has been scattered. Hawkeye will be arriving to close out the story of the titular protagonist and characters should show up here.

While the series is being promoted as a self-contained story, the MCU has always featured returning characters that weren’t revealed beforehand. With the way things were left off, it would make sense for Hawkeye to come across certain characters to bring full closure to their arcs.

10 Black Widow

It’s been confirmed that Black Widow will be in the Hawkeye series, but it’s the Yelena Belova version, not Clint’s best friend. Natasha Romanoff can still easily show up, though, as the MCU has made use of flashbacks before, among other techniques like hallucinations and illusions.

Most of all, fans would love to see Clint and Natasha’s adventures in Budapest, which have been teased for about a decade by this point. Black Widow was Hawkeye’s closest relationship and it would be the best way to send off her memory by having her in this series.

9 Bruce Banner/Hulk

The rather hit-and-miss execution of Smart Hulk has led to many memes making fun of him. He didn’t even get a real ending in Avengers: Endgame, and it’s hard to imagine why he would cut himself off from Clint after the events of the movie.

Bruce can be seen in his human form or as the Hulk, as the important thing is to feature him in a way that can not only bring clarity over his friendship with Hawkeye, but also set up his own appearance in the She-Hulk series.

8 Scarlet Witch

There are several unresolved questions set to be answered in WandaVision, yet it’s not likely that Hawkeye will be appearing in that show. It’s a shame if Scarlet Witch isn’t seen in Hawkeye either, seeing as she was one of the few to have a genuine connection with Clint.

In fact, the two were consoling each other in their last appearance in Avengers: Endgame, which would make it even stranger if Scarlet Witch simply disappears from Clint’s life at a time when they both need friends more than ever.

7 James Rhodes

Although he had a relatively larger role in Avengers: Endgame, Rhodey wasn’t given much of an ending as he was just shown mourning Tony’s demise. He doesn’t need to appear as War Machine in this series, just as his civilian self and with a definite place for him to be.

Hawkeye can show how Rhodey has coped since the deaths of Natasha and Tony, two people whom he was closest to in the Avengers. Clint will have this loss in common with Rhodes, which is enough to warrant an inclusion for the latter in the series.

6 Thaddeus Ross

It’s unlike Ross to simply fold his hands and walk away, even if a world-ending scenario was averted. With most of the Avengers either dead or gone, Clint seems like a natural target for him to get answers from.

To this end, Hawkeye can show Clint’s attempts to rid himself of Ross’s constant imposition in his life. If nothing else, Ross can at least appear as a way for the MCU to clarify what the government’s position is following the return of the characters that had died in the Snap.

5 Nick Fury

Of course, no S.H.I.E.L.D. member can go away for too long without the feeling that Nick Fury might be keeping tabs on them. Fury actually appeared at Hawkeye’s farm in Avengers: Age of Ultron to meet with Tony, which confirmed that he was close enough to Clint to know of his location.

His appearance will show where Hawkeye lies with S.H.I.E.L.D. in present-day, as well as establish the connection he has with Fury to the point where there are no more assumptions left. Although they worked closely together, the MCU hasn’t really shown Nick and Clint’s relationship as of yet.

4 Loki

The demons that haunt Hawkeye from his days in S.H.I.E.L.D. should most definitely include Loki, seeing as he was the one who controlled his mind and caused him to attack his own team. An appearance from Loki would be perfect to explore Clint’s mentality and how The Avengers affected him.

While Loki’s return is something fans are hoping for Thor: Love and Thunder, it only needs to be the memory of Loki who should appear in Hawkeye since it was the villainous side of him that Clint encountered.

3 Erik Selvig

Clint wasn’t the only one who was trapped in the mind games of Loki, with Erik Selvig similarly being controlled by the Scepter. The two worked together when they were under this influence, whose impact can be explored in Hawkeye.

Selvig has been inconspicuous in his absence from the MCU since Avengers: Age of Ultron, so the Hawkeye series can fill in the gap between his last appearance and his current status. He and Clint also have the history of working for S.H.I.E.L.D. in common.

2 Pepper Potts

Tony and Pepper were everybody’s favorite couple in the MCU, only for the ending of Avengers: Endgame to shatter them forever. While Pepper never had anything to do with Hawkeye, the latter can be shown visiting her since he used to be Tony’s close friend.

It had been hoped that Pepper would be seen in Spider-Man: Far From Home, but when that didn’t come to pass, fans have only wondered further about what she’s been up to as a single mother. Clint and his family can be the ones to fill this hole in her life.

1 Steve Rogers

He’s the character everyone wants back most for The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, but Steve’s return for Hawkeye might be more appropriate due to the two being former Avengers members. Mostly, it’s a great chance to see how Clint reacted to the old Steve Rogers.

With every other character busy with their own lives, being around Clint and his family makes the most sense on paper for Steve. There’s no need for him to be shown in his Captain America form, as what fans want to see most is how the older Steve Rogers is doing these days.
