Overview
- Jeremy Renner revealed he declined a second season of Disney+'s Hawkeye after being offered half of his first-season salary.
- Renner suggested the lower offer was influenced by his near-fatal 2023 snowplow accident, which left him with over 30 broken bones and required extensive rehabilitation.
- He clarified that the pay cut decision was made by Disney accountants, not Marvel Studios, and referred to the proposal as an 'insult.'
- Renner emphasized that he did not demand a raise but only requested the same pay as in the first season, citing the substantial time and effort required for the role.
- While disappointed by the outcome, Renner expressed his continued love for the character of Hawkeye and openness to future MCU appearances if terms are fair.
