Hawkeye is considered as one of the core Avengers, along with Iron Man, Captain America, the Hulk, Black Widow and Thor. They all came together in the first Avengers movie, and they even battled together in Avengers: Age of Ultron. So it came as a surprise that Hawkeye sat out of the events of Avengers Infinity War. The reason given by Black Widow in the movie is that Hawkeye has accepted house imprisonment by the US government, for his involvement in the Captain America: Civil War airport fight, for the sake of his family. Captain Marvel Trailer: From Punching an Old Lady to Return of Dead Characters- 11 Intriguing Moments in Brie Larson's Superhero Marvel Film First Promo.

Rumour has it that his family has got obliterated by Thanos' snap and this has made him seething for revenge. Hawkeye is also believed to have adopted a new name, Ronin, with a new look. So when Jeremy Renner, who portrays Hawkeye in the film, posted a picture of him looking bruised and battered during the shoot, we wonder what's the deal with him. Is Thanos proving too much for him?
