Marvel Fans Start Fun Petition Asking Hawkeye To Be Included In Avengers: Infinity War’s Marketing Campaign


There might be a lot of cool new footage and images of the different members of the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy in the promotional material for Avenger: Infinity War, but Hawkeye's been missing out on all the action ever since Marvel started the film's marketing campaign.

Now, as a way to celebrate April Fools' Day, Marvel fans have decided to start a petition on Change.Org asking Marvel and Disney to add Hawkeye to Infinity War's marketing campaign. According to the petitioners, fans "can no longer tolerate the absences of the strongest Avenger from the Infinity War" promotional material and that Hawkeye should "be at least given one single out of focus blurry frame in a trailer or tv spot" in the film.

"We ask this with the utmost respect, and in no way seek to harm the profitability of Infinity War or the reputations of those who work hard at Dinsey co. to provide MCU fans with a new movie like every other month (seriously like, Black Panthers still in theatres). Anyways, we are just MCU fans, we are not marketing execs or film critics, we don't have any interest in influencing creative direction, we just know the lack of Hawks when we see it."

Trying to be as respectful as they can, the petitioners recognize the difficulties of having Hawkeye in Infinity War's promotional campaign.

"We realize that certain decisions often have to be made for financial reasons, which can in some instances impact the creative process. Jeremy Renner is an expensive and busy guy (did yous see that Tag movie trailer, looks pretty decent). It should be clarified at this point that we are not pursuing a Renner cut or Hawkeye edition, but instead a movie trailer where Hawkeye receives a minimum of 2.5 lines."

Titled #JusticeForHawkeye, this new petition sounds pretty interesting, even if it was made simply to entertain the fan base. Right now the petition's got 937 signatures out of a thousand. Feel free to hop on to the site and sign the petition if you feel like Disney needs to add more Hawkeye to Infinity War's marketing campaign.

Avengers: Infinity War premieres April 27.
