Fans have long been wondering if Hailee Steinfeld will play Kate Bishop in the upcoming Hawkeye series. Although the Bumblebee star has somehow denied the casting, it looks like new evidence would confirm otherwise.
Steinfeld recently posted a photo on her official Instagram account that reminds her followers about her upcoming birthday. However, people have also pointed out that the last emoji in her caption might confirm she has been cast as Clint Barton's protege. Check it out below.
So is this a real tease? It's best to remember that Steinfeld's star sign is Sagitarrius, which is represented by the archer. This could mean that the actress was simply making a reference to her own zodiac sign. On the other hand, there's more evidence in the post.
Fans have also discovered that directing duo Bert & Bertie have left a comment on Steinfeld's post. For those who didn't know, Amber Finlayson (Bert) and Katie Ellwood (Bertie) will be directing Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye show. Although it's just three purple hearts, some have pointed out that purple is Kate's signature color.
At this point, we're really hoping that Steinfeld will confirm she is going to be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
Hawkeye will bring back Renner as the titular Avenger and he has been sharing updates on his preparations for the upcoming show. Although the series has not yet started production, it is already expected to begin filming before the end of the year.
