The upcoming Marvel sequence, Hawkeye, starring Jeremy Renner, has quite a lot of inquiries to reply. What occurred to this necessary character after the occasions of Avengers: Endgame? Will we study extra concerning the character’s time as Ronin, as proven in Endgame? Will he pave the best way for an additional Hawkeye to emerge? Renner, talking with us as a part of a press convention, says that the sequence will clarify all of it. If all of those questions usually are not sufficient, there’s the massive one as properly: How is Clint Barton coping with the lack of his greatest good friend, Natasha Romanoff? “There’s an emotional line from Endgame that leads into this, and there’s a lot of healing. However, this series begins on a happy note—with a Christmas vacation in New York—as Barton takes his kids to a musical, when everything goes sideways,” says Renner.

The sequence will even see Hailee Steinfeld enjoying the position of Kate Bishop, a woman who annoys Barton lots however later wins his respect together with her expertise. Renner is all reward for Steinfeld: “She came in well-prepared. It’s pretty sad that I feel a bit old to see people coming in and going out (laughs). But Hailee came in ready. I just wanted to communicate with her that I had her back as a lot of strange things go into the production of such a show and the filmmaking itself is rather different. I just wanted to let her know that she wasn’t alone, and that I would give her answers if she wanted them.”

Clint Barton showered related affection on Natasha Romanoff, who, as we noticed in Endgame, sacrificed herself to save lots of him and the world. Ask him about how Barton is coping with survivor’s guilt and Renner says, “On the outside, there’s the guilt, and having to deal with the loss, yes. But then, he has lost more as well. This is addressed in the show, and I think it is beautifully intimate. It also brings characters closer as well as the audience. It all comes from just the weight of the horror and tragedy and the loss that comes with playing the game. The lightness and brightness that Hailee’s character brings in counteracts that. So, it’s cathartic, and I think it is quite beautiful.”

Renner goes on to elaborate on the connection between Kate and Clint: “They are polar opposites, and yet, have congruent values, belief systems and skillsets. It’s a wonderfully complicated partnership. When you put them together, you get winning scenarios. It’s more like a buddy cop story with a mentor.” The sequence will even reportedly spend time establishing Clint Barton as a father and he calls that “one of the most important anchors”.

He says, “It tells the audience what Clint’s real superpower is—it’s an amalgamation of all this practical, ultimately, very palatable and accessible morality. I think any amazing parent is a superhero in their own right. To be a father is a tremendous honour and a gift, and the most difficult thing I think any human can go through. I think it really is the anchor and base to where all of Barton’s steadfastness, actionability and relatability come from. That’s his superpower.”
