Marvel Studios series usually range between six and nine episodes, but the length of individual episodes can vary as well.
The first two were over 45 minutes, and were therefore quite full-bodied, but it seems that the next two will stop a little earlier.
Amit Chaundhari , a reliable source for this news, reports that the sum of episodes 3 and 4 will amount to 80 minutes: they could therefore be two episodes of 40 minutes each, or one of 50 and the other of 30, or other intermediate hypotheses. Nothing strange, however. Not having to submit to the strict slots of the television schedules, the shows of the streaming platforms have a certain freedom in setting the length of the episodes, and sometimes the differences between one episode and another are considerable.
As we know, Hawkeye’s will be six in all, and they will be a kind of long film. The third will be out on Wednesday.
