Los Angeles, Sep 9 (AZINS) Character Hawkeye is reportedly taking up a new identity in the upcoming fourth instalment of "The Avengers".

He's not the only one getting a new look. Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow has gone blonde while Chris Evans' Steve Rogers has grown a beard.
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, the fourth film will see Josh Brolin returning as Thanos. Robert Downey Jr. is also back as Iron Man, Gwyneth Paltrow as his secretary Pepper Potts, and Jon Favreau as his assistant. Mark Ruffalo returns as Hulk as well.
