Jeremy Renner And Scarlett Johansson Discuss Their Characters From THE AVENGERS

After the big poster reveal and multiple other cast quotes from Marvel's The Avenger's today there couldn't possibly be any more right? Wrong, becuase Jeremey Renner and Scarlett Johansson sat down with EW to talk about their characters in the Film. Renner plays sharp shooter Clint Barton, AKA Hawkeye, who according to him is a loner. “I’m on such the periphery. By nature of being a sniper on top of a building, the behavior of a sniper is a loner. He gets a call and comes and does his thing," He said. Hawkeye was last seen in Thor perched in a lift getting ready to take Thor out with his Bow and arrow.


The only female lead in the movie belongs to Johansson as Black Widow. She says being the female lead can be intimidating. "Occasionally it does come up where I’m like, ‘Oh my God, I’m the only girl in a group of 15 stunt men and seven cast. But I’m hanging in there. It’s fun," she said. She also talked a little bit about why she thinks people think Widow is a sexy character, "Part of what makes her sexy is she takes no prisoners. She also said you would think twice about going up to her and giving her a big bear hug.

WOW too much Avengers news in one day, lol. Not to mention the trailer too.

The movie needs more FEMALES!!! Black Widow and Maria Hill I think are the only females in the movie. Wasp would have been GREAT! Maybe we get lucky and Carol Danvers (Ms Marvel) is in the movie as a SHIELD agent.

Wildaniel Never say that! :P Also I hope we can get Sharon Carter in it at least as a cameo.

Cool interview, can't wait for the movie! :)

You know what a cool scene would be? Cap going to Peggy's grave and meeting her daughter Sharon Carter. In this case I guess Sharon would be Peggy's granddaughter. THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!

@Ironman

And with Hank Pym comes Ultron. I'm pretty sure Joss will do what it takes to get them and Wasp in a sequel. I wondered what happened to the rumor that Hank Pym shows up at the end and us building Ultron as a replacement for Stark . . . Hmmm.

LOL @Gusto, you sick [frick]!

The nice part about Renner in Thor is that on the original Script Hawkeye was supposed to aim at him with a sniper rifle. But they've changed that for the bow. He even takes a second to decide between rifle and bow :)

I'm not expecting too much Hawkeye material, but from what I've read of the character, he seems to be kind a of a fun, rebellious, loose cannon sort so I hope some of that makes it in, even if he's just a more quiet smartass.

@ nomis
@ captainprog

my list is purely for the movie,if it was based on the comic my list would be.

1st thor
2nd hulk
3rd captain america
4th iron man
5th black widow
6th hawkeye

hulk,iron man & thor look great from the footage we've seen.

captain america would be higher on my list if i didn't have doubts about his mask,he looks alot better without it.

as for hawkeye & the black widow,black widow is alright but i'm not much a fan of those two & i hope the movie changes my mind about that.

@ ironman53

iron man would of been in first place but the hulk looks fantastic from what we've seen so far.

How come no one ever asks here why she isn't doing a Russian accent as the character. That annoys me.

I'm a fan of both of the characters.

Like everyone else though, I would have preferred Ant-Man and Wasp. They should have saved Hawkeye and Black Widow for the sequel.

I hope they're done justice in the movie. Especially Black Widow.

i think they should have a type of rivalry between Widow and Maria Hill. like each one thinks she's badder than the other kind of deal.

Worst casting ever for both roles...

Black Widow should of been a hot actual russian babe not this podgy yank...
