Hailee Steinfeld Talks Starring In 'Hawkeye' For The First Time

Hailee Steinfeld is opening up about Hawkeye for the first time!

Since it was officially announced that the 23-year-old is starring in the upcoming series, she’s able to talk about playing Kate Bishop.

“I’m working with some incredible filmmakers that are helping me bring her to life,” she told ET. “I can’t wait for people to see how we are interpreting this character through the comics and in our own sort of ways.”

“She’s such a badass, there’s no denying that. She’s so smart and witty and quick and her physical ability to do so many things is through the roof. It’s really tested me and it’s kept me going through quarantine, I will say. It’s given me a reason to stay with it,” Hailee added.

“I’m just very excited as I continue developing her to see sort of how we come up with it all,” she shared.

While they have been filming in New York City this year, the show isn’t expected to be out on Disney+ until late 2021.
