Jeremy Renner will make his return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe this coming May as he links up with the rest of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes for Avengers: Age of Ultron. During a Reddit AMA the star has spoken about the future of Hawkeye in the MCU, discussing a potential solo movie, as well as stating that he’s open to a guest role in Marvel’s ABC show Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.:
“Am I interested [in a solo movie]? Always have been interested. I always love Clint, and in the last Avengers: Age of Ultron, we got to dive into him some more. Very excited about the outcome of it, and where it can go in the future. But all I can do is want. And that’s all I can do. It all comes down to the content, and really how the puppeteers at Marvel can manifest a story that’s worthy of a solo movie. Not sure what that is, or how that is, but I’m confident they can do whatever they want, if they want to do it. And I’d be game.”
And as for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Renner said that: “It’s not something I sit and think about. But I suppose if it was offered up, there’s an outside chance it could happen. I haven’t seen the show, so I don’t know how it works, but I’m sure the folks at Marvel have ideas, and when they’re strong enough, they’ll bring ’em to me. But I love me some Clark Gregg, he’s so great. We killed him and brought him back to life to do Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., he’s so good!”
Would you like to see a solo Hawkeye movie and a guest appearance in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Let us know your thoughts…
