On the ‘Happy Sad Confused‘ podcast, Hailee Steinfeld was asked about the status of ‘The Young Avengers’ movie. With the introduction of Cassie Lang, Kate Bishop, and America Chavez, we know MCU has been building toward ‘The Young Avengers’ movie. But despite being a part of the MCU, Steinfeld is unaware of the stage of development the film is in. 

However, Marvel is yet to officially announce ‘The Young Avengers‘ as either a Phase 5 or a Phase 6 project. Struggling with the generic movies and television series, Marvel has been stuck in a creative rut since ‘Avengers: Endgame.’ This is where the new generation of Avengers could swoop in and present a fresh perspective to MCU.

Hailee Steinfeld Is Clueless About ‘The Young Avengers’ Movie

Since her induction in the MCU with ‘Hawkeye’ series, we haven’t seen much of Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop. While promoting ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’ on the podcast ‘Happy Sad Confused,’ she was quizzed about ‘The Young Avengers’ movie. Steinfeld is excited but remains out of the loop about any updates.

Hailee Steinfeld, who voices Gwen Stacy in ‘Spiderman: Across The Spider-Verse,’ did think that being in an animated movie would lessen her chance of playing a live-action character. She also talked about the MCU’s process, telling Horowitz about working without a script and trusting the vision of Phil Miller and Christopher Lord, the directors of ‘Spider-Man: Into The Multiverse.’

The ‘True Grit’ actress told the host why Spider-Man appeals to her, “These films are so grounded and rooted in its emotion and characters. I think one of the reasons I love Spider-Man so much is because he’s just a normal dude, and he puts on this suit and becomes a superhuman and takes it off, and instantly, he’s a normal person again and just trying to navigate life as it is.”
