Despite suffering a devastating accident, Jeremy Renner is ready to step back into his role as Hawkeye in the MCU.
TheMarvel Cinematic Universehas seen its fair share of celebrity step into the roles of its iconic heroes, but the original six Avengers will always be top tier in most fans’ minds.
Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow, Captain America, Hulk, and Hawkeye were the cornerstone of the MCU for a decade but, out of the six, two remain and it seems like Hawkeye is gearing up for a big come back.
Renner is waiting for call to return to MCU role
The Marvel actor recently sat down with Entertainment Tonightto discuss his upcoming Super Bowl commercial and the topic of returning to the MCU came up.
“I’m always game. I’m gonna be strong enough, that’s for sure,” Renner said, “I’ll be ready. All those guys come to my bedside and they’ve been with me all along through this recovery, so… if they want me, they could have me. It would be something.”
“It’s hard for me to look back, to be honest with you. It’s hard for me to look forward. I focus on now and this next step in front of me, ’cause there’s always another obstacle for me right now.”
According to CNN, the parking brake was not engaged which led to the actor’s fate of “blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries,” but Renner seems to be doing much better thanks to intensive physical therapy.
