AVENGERS 4 Set Photos Seem To Confirm a Rumor About a Big Hawkeye Change
A few set photos have surfaced from the set of Avengers 4 that seem to confirm a big rumor about a major change to Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye. If you don't want to know what this change is, I suggest you don't read any further.
According to the rumor, Clint Barton is said to appear as Ronin or an iteration of Ronin in Avengers 4. In the comics, Barton became Ronin when he rejoined the New Avengers in the aftermath of Civil War. As for how this Ronin story arc will play out in the MCU, the previous report says:
We are told that the events of Avengers: Infinity War (one specific event in particular) leaves Barton in a VERY dark place and is the inciting moment in the archer’s shift into this darker superhero mantle. Given the nature of events that cause the shift, it’s possible that they may not make the final cut of the film, but trust us when we say that if they do, you will absolutely know it when you see it.
Now, it seems like this dark change has been confirmed. In the set photos below we see Jeremy Renner mostly covered up by a big coat, but if you look at his legs, you can see he's wearing a black and gold outfit, which iare the same colors that Ronin wears in the comics.
It's not an official confirmation, but it's close enough to make me believe that the rumor is true. Check out the photos below and tell us what you think.
