It’s been a minute since we’ve seen Jeremy Renner playing Clint Barton, a.k.a. Hawkeye, in the MCU, and there’s still no word on if he’ll reprise the role in upcoming Marvel movies and/or upcoming Marvel TV shows. To be fair, much of this has to do with how Renner was badly injured in a snowplow accident at the start of 2023, resulting in a long recuperation process. However, apparently, he had also been approached to do "Hawkeye" Season 2, but turned it down for a completely understandable reason.
As the actor laid out in an interview with "High Performance," this decision didn’t stem from a lack of interest in reprising the archer he’s been playing, stretching back to 2011’s "Thor." Rather, if he’d agreed to return for another season of Hawkeye, which premiered late 2021, he would have been taking a massive pay cut.
