Marvel’s Hawkeye Press Junket: Fun Facts From Cast & Creators
It has been officially announced that Florence Pugh, who plays Yelena in Black Widow, will appear in the new Disney Plus Hawkeye series. The last we saw of Yelena was in the end credit scene of Black Widow, when Madame Hydra sent her to kill Clint Barton, stating she was the reason her sister was dead. Yelena has yet to be seen after the first two episodes of Hawkeye were screened, but she was asked about during a recent press conference with the cast and creators.
Surprisingly, or maybe not, the cast was a bit secretive about Yelena’s appearance in Hawkeye. Shying away from the question, Jeremy Renner would only state that he is aware Yelena is after him and he hopes it will get settled. Let’s hope so, for the sake of Clint and Hawkeye fans everywhere.
