Thor 057: When Did They Decide to Include Hawkeye?

<h2>Minute Fifty-Seven: From Thor Fighting in the Tunnel to Coulson Entering the Tunnel</h2> <p>Joining us to discuss Hawkeye, his weird placement in this film, and Thor’s sense of direction are Andrew Darowski from Disney Animation Minute Essentials and Joe Darowski from The Protagonist Podcast !</p> <h3>In the fifty-seventh minute of <a href="https://trustory.fm/director/kenneth-branagh/">Kenneth Branagh</a>’s 2011 film <em>Thor</em>...</h3> <ul><li>Thor runs through the hamster cage for a while.
