There's a lot of excitement over Hawkeye's (Jeremy Renner) appearance in Avengers: Endgame. Clint Barton was nowhere to be found in Avengers: Infinity War, the first installment in Joe and Anthony Russo's two-part Avengers movie. Ever since his absence in the film last year, rumors started going around that Barton would debut his alter-ego as Ronin, an alias that replaces Hawkeye in the aftermath of Marvel's Civil War comics. Hawkeye's little sequence in the trailer for Endgame only heightened the assumption that Barton would be appearing as Ronin in the film.
Now, it looks like fans are getting an early look at Clint's transformation thanks to tie-in merchandise for Endgame. Early action figures for the Infinity War sequel have made their way online, and not only do these toys confirm the return of unaccounted characters like Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) but they also show off new costumes for the Avengers.
Check out Barton's Ronin outfit down here:
Not only does Clint seem to have a sleek ninja-like suit, but he also has a mask to match the green costume and its hood. However, unlike the comics version of Ronin, the vigilante doesn't seem to have a full mask, instead, giving space for the eyes for a get-up that resembles Ultimate Hawkeye.
Of course, as exciting as it might seem to see Hawkeye in his Ronin outfit, fans ought to take this leak with a grain of salt. Marvel merchandise don't always feature details that come out in Marvel films. It's possible that Marvel could be preparing another look for Clint in Endgame.
Avengers: Endgame premieres April 26, 2019.
