What’s Next For Hawkeye And Hulk?
Of the original six Avengers, four of them are served some sort of ending in Endgame. Tony and Natasha get tragic, self-sacrificial ones. Captain America gets a happy one and Thor, as previously discussed, gets an open ended one. That means that Hulk and Hawkeye are left with their futures unclear. So, what could be next for the last of the OG Avengers?
Well, Clint’s got his happy ending in many ways as his family have been returned to him. However, remember that he’s still been in a very dark place for the past half-decade, murdering his way through the world’s criminal population. He expresses a lot of guilt for this in the movie, so we’d expect that there’s some trauma for him to come, even if he’s got his wife and kids by his side again. Speaking of his kid, Lyla Barton seems to be a dab hand with a bow and arrow, so she might end up taking after her dad. If she’s the MCU stand-in for Kate Bishop, we could see Renner return to train up his protege.
As for Hulk, Endgame put a button on the constant struggle between Banner and the other guy by merging the two into one. Likewise, his smashing days are seemingly over as his left arm was badly damaged by his use of the Infinity Gauntlet. All these signs and more point to this being the last we see of Hulk in the MCU, then. However, there’s still the possibility that he could also come back as a mentor to the next Jade Giant. Could we see Amadeus Cho’s Totally Awesome Hulk in the MCU maybe?
