Marvel fans have been patiently waiting for Season 2 of "Hawkeye." However, the last update from Jeremy Renner wasn't exactly encouraging.
Renner, who made his first appearance as Hawkeye in 2011, revealed in May that he was offered "half the money" for Season 2 of the Disney+ series. He turned down that offer and questioned if it had to do with his near-fatal accident in 2023.
"This is not Marvel, mind you. This is just Disney, not even really Disney. It’s just the penny pinchers, the accountants," Renner said. "I told them to go fly a kite… I mean, just at the insult offer. So we didn’t see eye to eye on it."
Despite turning down that offer, Renner hasn't turned his back on Marvel Studios. During a recent interview with Empire, he said that he's sure Season 2 of "Hawkeye" will end up happening.
"I’m always happy to be in that world, man. I love all those guys, I love the character," Renner told Empire. "I’m sure we’ll end up doing Season 2, and do other things. And I’m happy to do it. My body’s getting ready for something like that. I don’t know if anybody wants to see me in tights, but my body will look good in the tights."
Renner added that he has spent a lot of time focusing on his health ever since the snowplow incident in Lake Tahoe.
"Having health and wellness be such a central part of my life, that’s what’s gotten me back. And even as I age, I just feel stronger than I’ve been. I have some issues, and tendon issues and certain limitations of flexibility and mobility, but I spent a lot of time on getting better and stronger, and I wouldn’t if I didn’t get crushed."
With that said, Marvel fans should get to see Renner firing arrows once again at some point in the next few years.
