Another Report Claims the WEST COAST AVENGERS Are Coming to the MCU

Another report has surfaced claiming that Marvel Studios is planning to introduce the West Coast Avengers in the MCU.

This rumor comes from inside scooper, @MyTimeToShineH, whos simply states: "There is a plan for the West Coast Avengers in the MCU."

This is something that’s been speculated for years, and it’s really only a matter of time before it happens. It was previously reported that the West Coast Avengers team will debut in Marvel’s Vision series.

It was explained at the time: “I hear this show will have elements from the ‘West [Coast] Avengers’ run and might even have members of that team in the series.”

Created by Roger Stern and Bob Hall, the West Coast Avengers debuted in 1984. The team was founded by Hawkeye at the behest of the original Avengers to expand their reach and protect the United States West Coast.

In the comics, the original members of the West Coast Avengers include Hawkeye, Mockingbird, War Machine, Wonder Man, and Tigra. Vision is not an original member of the team, but he later joins them and becomes an important part of the group over the years.

If this does happen it means that we may see Jeremy Renner return as Clinton Barton / Hawkeye, and Don Cheadle as James “Rhodey” Rhodes / War Machine. Then there’s Clint’s wife Laura Barton (Linda Cardellini) who is Agent 19 of S.H.I.E.L.D., which is an alias of Mockingbird in the comics.

The Vision series is being developed by Star Trek: Picard executive producer Terry Matalas, who will serve as showrunner on the project.

The series stars Paul Bettany and James Spader, and then there’s Elizabeth Olsen, who may show up in it as well.

Who knows, there could be no truth to any of this, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the West Coast Avengers team showed up at some point.
