If you’re a Marvel nerd like me, you’re probably still recovering from the emotional wrecking ball that was Avengers: Infinity War. Thankfully, the next film to this tragic and amazing story is in the works. Although we will have to say goodbye to many beloved characters in Avengers 4, Marvel is keeping us on our toes by introducing new exciting characters.
According to The Wrap, 13 Reasons Why actress, Katherine Langford, has joined the MCU as a new character in Avengers 4 and has already shot her scenes. In true Marvel fashion, her role is being kept under lock and key. Even Langford’s representatives are keeping quiet about it.Â
Naturally, this news sent fans into a theory frenzy.  People on Twitter began freaking out because they believe Langford could potentially be playing Kate Bishop, a.k.a Hawkeye, a member of the Young Avengers. Meanwhile, We Got This Covered is theorizing that Langford could be playing the adult version of one of two current child characters—Lila Barton (daughter of Clint Barton/Hawkeye) or Cassandra Lang (daughter of Scott Land/Hawkeye)—since there are rumors that there will be a significant time skip in the movie. I guess we are just going to have to wait for the trailer to truly know what Marvel has planned for the Love, Simon star.
This news comes shortly after the announcement that Langford will be starring in a new Netflix project titled Cursed, which is set for next year.
Avengers 4 is slated for release in spring 2019.
