According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Marvel series will air on the upcoming Disney+ streaming service.


The project is planned as a graduation point for Barton where he is able to pass on the Hawkeye mantle to his young protege Kate Bishop, who in the comics is a member of the Young Avengers.


Bishop has starred in the 'Hawkeye' series from Matt Fraction and Alex Aja. Launched in 2012, the comic book series centered on the student-teacher relationship between Barton and Bishop.


The "Hawkeye" miniseries is the latest to join the list of Disney+ projects starring Marvel Cinematic Universe talent -- Tom Hiddleston, Paul Bettany and Elizabeth Olsen, and Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan.


Disney+ has two unscripted Marvel shows in the works -- "616" and "Hero Project" -- that were unveiled Wednesday. 


Meanwhile, "Endgame" is slated to be released worldwide on April 26.
