With the recent release of the third episode of Hawkeye, fans are anxious for what’s coming next. After all, the new Disney Plus series has began building all sorts of exciting new pathways for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to follow. And, as evident in the below Hawkeye promo, it looks like we can expect at least one mysterious new character to come forward in following episodes.
The promo, which does use footage from episodes that are already streaming, begins as a bit of a recap. However, the promo then begins to introduce new footage. In particular, we see a mysterious new character that’s wearing a mask.
And, as if to share the thoughts of fans watching the promo, Kate Bishop utters the following line of dialogue:
“Who’s that?”
The biggest surprises are yet to come! The third episode of Marvel Studios’ #Hawkeye is now streaming on @DisneyPlus with new episodes every Wednesday. pic.twitter.com/KM1MVMEbC0

It’s a great question. While many fans are hoping that Wilson Fisk will eventually be a surprise character, it seems like a fair guess that he’s not the one wearing a tactical mask in the new Hawkeye promo. Instead, fans are assuming that it’s actually Yelena Belova who was played by Florence Pugh in Black Widow. And considering that she was already expected to join the series at some point following the events of that film, it’s a great guess that the mysterious new character is indeed Yelena Belova.
Of course, fans might just have to keep an eye out for the new episode to know for sure. Whatever the case may be, Hawkeye is shaping up to be a great Marvel Cinematic Universe experience.
The cast for Hawkeye stars Jeremy Renner as the titular superhero and Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop. Vera Farmiga, Fra Fee, Tony Dalton, Zahn McClarnon, Brian d’Arcy James and newcomer Alaqua Cox as Maya Lopez also star.
Fans can expect new episodes of Hawkeye to be added weekly every Wednesday.
