Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste<\/p>\n
Quick superheroic fact check: Excepting the animated What If\u2026?, it has now been almost three years<\/a> since any of the actors who played the original Avengers have appeared as their characters in a Marvel TV show or film. (Chris Evans winked at Steve Rogers with last year\u2019s Deadpool And Wolverine<\/a>, but was revealed to be running a more oldschool game.) Jeremy Renner, specifically, has not suited up as Clint Barton since\u00a0Hawkeye, which was four years (and, we can\u2019t help but note, one extremely brutal near-death experience<\/a>) ago. There\u2019s the Robert Downey Von Doom of it all lurking in the future<\/a>, of course, but at present, the Avengers, as a group, are pretty much retired.<\/p>\n None of which is stopping Renner from throwing out there that he\u2019s \u201csure\u201d he\u2019ll one day be back for a second season of the\u00a0Hawkeye\u00a0TV show. The\u00a0Mayor Of Kingstown\u00a0expressed this sentiment this week in an interview with\u00a0Empire, in which he said \u201cI\u2019m sure we\u2019ll end up doing Season 2,\u201d and that \u201cI\u2019m always happy to be in that world, man. I love all those guys, I love the character.\u201d<\/p>\n Notably, this isn\u2019t the first time Renner has spoken about a second season of\u00a0Hawkeye\u00a0recently, albeit in rosier terms this time around: Back in May<\/a>, he gave an interview in which he said Disney gave him an \u201cinsult offer\u201d to come back for the series, rhetorically asking \u201cDid you think I\u2019m only half the Jeremy because I got ran over? Maybe that\u2019s why you want to pay me half of what I made on the first season.\u201d<\/p>\n Renner didn\u2019t go quite that hard in that interview\u2014or descend into any free verse about how being forced back into his body after the bliss of non-existence has stripped him of any fears of death<\/a>\u2014but does say that he\u2019s recovered \u201c150 percent\u201d and is ready to get back to superhero work. \u201cMy body\u2019s getting ready for something like that. I don\u2019t know if anybody wants to see me in tights, but my body will look good in the tights.\u201d<\/p>\n Jeremy Renner reviews dying, makes it sound pretty cool<\/a>Jeremy Renner turned down Disney’s “insult offer” for a Hawkeye season 2<\/a><\/p>\n
