Last week's Hawkeye finale did include a post-credits scene, but instead of setting up a second season or hinting at what's to come for our heroic archers, it featured a full performance of a song from Rogers: The Musical. It was a fun little callback to the show Clint Barton saw with his kids in the first episode, but not exactly what fans were hoping to see from an MCU stinger!
A rumor that a scene involving Wilson Fisk was considered did the rounds shortly after, but we now have details on the sequence that was originally planned.
According to animator Elaina Scott, the scrapped stinger would have seen the return of that owl Barton spotted when he fell into the Christmas tree. When Kate shrank the Tracksuit Mafia's van with the Pym-particles trick arrow, the owl swooped down and carried it away. Apparently, we were going to see the little fella carry the van to his nest. We're not sure what else the sequence would have entailed, but we assume the implication was that the owl would have attempted to eat the Bros or feed them to his chicks - probably a little dark for this particular show!
We still don't know if Hawkeye will get a second season, but Maya Lopez's story will continue in Echo, which will also (hopefully) see the return of Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin.
What did you guys make of Hawkeye? Where would you rank it in the Disney+ Marvel shows we've seen so far?
