Overview

  • Jeremy Renner confirmed he turned down Hawkeye Season 2 after Disney accountants offered him half his Season 1 salary, citing the offer as unreasonable.
  • Renner emphasized the disagreement was with Disney's parent company and its accountants, not with Marvel Studios, and expressed his continued love for the character.
  • Marvel Studios’ Brad Winderbaum stated the studio is considering opportunities to revisit Hawkeye, though no official renewal has been announced.
  • Renner addressed rumors of a 'Raid'-style, single-location format for Season 2, acknowledging creative discussions but noting no final decisions have been made.
