Hawkeye Season 2 Finally Has Targeted Release Window (Report)

According to a new rumor, Hawkeye Season 2 may have an expected release window.

Jeremy Renner’s solo series enjoyed its run on Disney+ in late 2021 with no word on a season 2. But a second season of Hawkeye was reported to be in early development in September of this year.

At the time of writing, another batch of episodes has not been officially greenlit by Marvel Studios. Additionally, Renner hasn’t been seen in the MCU since Season 1, while his co-star Hailee Steinfeld’s lone appearance outside of the series came in a pre-credits tag in 2023’s The Marvels.

According to insiders Daniel RichtmanMarvel Studios has a planned release time frame for Hawkeye Season 2 on Disney+.

The report indicated that filming for season 2 will take place in the fall of 2025, with a targeted release window in the fall of 2026 or 2027.

This would mark at least five full years between the releases of Season 1 and Season 2. The rumor is just the latest indication that Season 2 is a reality after Hawkeye The Blu-ray release listed the show as “The Complete First Season” instead of “The Complete Series”.

What will happen in Hawkeye Season 2?

Considering how long ago Hawkeye Season 1 aired, and with Season 2 supposedly falling on the MCU timeline, it’s a challenge to predict what will happen in new episodes.

But since Kate Bishop is assumed to play a bigger role in the MCU, the new season could help establish her place in the MCU’s Young Avengers.

The Marvels began laying the groundwork for the Young Avengers via Kate’s first meeting with Iman Vellani’s Kamala Khan, marking the first true interaction between members of that team. For Kate, Hawkeye Season 2 could show her developing her skills as a leader in preparation for her place in that group.

It’s also important to note that a late 2026 or early 2027 release date would be Hawkeye Season 2 right in the middle Avengers: Doomsday (May 2026) and Avengers: Secret Wars (May 2027).

Both Renner and Steinfeld can be a part of Avengers: Doomsday cast, which leaves the question of whether Hawkeye Season 2 takes place before or after that mega-movie. Given their place as street-level heroes, many expect their next story to be a little more grounded outside of the larger Multiversal horrors.

However the details of the story play out, having both Clint Barton and Kate Bishop back in play will only add to the depth of adventure seen across the Multiverse Saga.


Hawkeye Season 2 is reportedly in development and rumored to debut on Disney+ in late 2026 or early 2027. Season 1 is now streaming on Disney+.
