Renner not Hawkeye.... YET!

Renner not Hawkeye.... YET!

But Hawkeye will definitely be in The Avengers movie!

Jeremy Renner updates the Hawkeye rumor that is circling the net. Here is what he has to say:

"The last I knew is that they still have to find their director for 'The Avengers,' that's where he's[Hawkeye] really going to show up. They were just talking, 'Like maybe we should consider maybe hiring Hawkeye now' but there's no director on 'Avengers' so they don't really want to force-feed the director, 'Here's the whole cast.' It's a big role so they didn't want to do that to the director, so I think they might wait. I know they're interested, I'm interested, so we'll see if it works out."





As most of you had already expressed I do think he will really be good in that part. Though seeing that this is not yet cast in stone, maybe there is still someone out there better who could fill those purple tights

-access out. Godspeed!

I wonder who they're eyeing for the director??

How about Peter Jackson???

Fingers crossed!

I'd like to see Chris Pine as Hawkeye but I think that this guy is a great choice!

@ captainovell

Lee, you have come up with some howlers in your time, but that may be the worst piece of casting yet!What in the name of God makes you think Renner suits the part of Bilbo frakkin Baggins! Did you watch the Hurt Locker?

StephenStrange
StephenStrange - 12/1/2009, 7:00 AM
lol @ Corndogburgler

I am glad they picked Hawkeye. Damn good choice.
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 12/1/2009, 7:21 AM
ROR @ Where did i ever put BILBO lol???


He's a [frick]ing HOBBIT!


And luv LOLR's but not interested in 6 or so hours of two HOBBIT movies, though i'll probably go an watch 'em.

RYDEN @ He's made it plain as day he thinks comics are below him, we need someone who cares about the character an doesn't look like a HOBBIT! ; D

Okay, the second bits not his fault lol!!

I'm not saying he's a sh1t choice, but think about it, if Ackles got da job, say goodbye to CAPPY!!

But apart from that seriously, ackles was born for the part of HAWKS, even plays him every week in SUPERNATURAL!!

Man, i can remember everyone starting on me coz i said HAWKEYE will be in AVENGERS no way he wont, even if it was just for a cameo, an now look lol. Said that with GUY GARDNER too in GREEN LANTERN (BRADLEY COOPER) Heh heh.


I really still think HANK & JAN is gonna be in AVENGERS too, even if its just out of costume, they will be there.

Holy crap! this is news to me. When the hell did marvel say that hawkeye would be in avengers prior to this article? If he is in there, HOORAY! I hope they can bring in hank pym as well!

@ Mario: it's been bounced around for a couple of weeks now. Mostly in connection with the vetting of this actor for the part.

@Darth

I must have missed that memo! I would have been expressing my excitement weeks ago!

This is great news, although, i must admit that i would have preferred to see a hawkeye movie before avengers. But in any case, this is great news.

LEE: You said, "He's made it plain as day he thinks comics are below him" - how exactly!?!?!?!

CrashTest - 12/1/2009, 9:56 AM
I do think Ackles would make a better Hawkeye if they dont use him as cap.
StephenStrange
StephenStrange - 12/1/2009, 10:05 AM
eh... @ Josh: he's probably just sick of the way people take shots at how super heroes dress. I am not sure I disagree
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 12/1/2009, 10:34 AM
DarthMulder: Well if thats the case then I cant say I disagree either! :)

lol yeah that could be it

DDD - 12/1/2009, 11:06 AM
I don't understand why they would put Hawkeye
in the first Avengers and not even mention
anything about Hank Pym. They've even mentioned
the Wasp being possibly played by Eva Longoria
but no Hank! But if they're putting Wasp in their
then it only goes to reason that they are adding
Hank Pym.

Hank is as essential to the Avengers as Cap and
Ironman! They can just make him able to shrink down
AND ALSO grow larger, he doesn't have to be only Ant-man!
Hank is better as the giant guy! They could just amalgamate
Pym into a cool modernized version of the black and yellow
costume as YELLOW JACKET and make him able to SHRINK &
GROW!

Hawkeye came in a very short time after the first
issue of the Avengers and to me he stands as one
of the original Avengers. It would work to have him
come into the Avengers somewhere later in the middle
of the First Avengers movie! Hawkeye has always
been one of the symbols of The Avengers, to me!

I've seen Renner act and I think he's pretty good at
playing the joking sarcastic rebel that HAWKEYE is!
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 12/1/2009, 11:13 AM
DDD: I agree! I could only just about accept not having the Pym's in the first movie (though I'd be incredibly [frick]ed off by that) but one without the other is CRAZY!!!

Hank and Jan are an essential part of The Avengers and I know there are a lot of users here who dont like The Ultimates but even that title had Giant Man and Wasp in the team from the very start!

Zak Penn is writing the script which already has me scared half to death that the movie will fail but to not include two important characters like that will leave me gutted! :(

Runefyst - 12/1/2009, 12:37 PM
@ Josh - I agree, Hank & Jan need to be part of this. Hell, if Renner doesn't get Hawkeye, I could see him playing Pym as well.

Definitely couldn't see him playing Bilbo though LEEE......

I've not seen Supernatural, but is this Ackles guy THAT good? I can't say he shouldn't play anything becaue I havn't seen him act.
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 12/1/2009, 1:24 PM
Runefyst: He really is man! LEE hates the idea of him as Cap but is desperate for him to play Hawkeye so that shows you that even he likes him as an actor, lol! He's a brilliant actor who proves every week on Supernatural that he was born to play Cap! You can find episodes of the show on www.surfthechannel.com (I recommend Season 5's "The End" to see Ackles really shine) and if my ramblings weren enough to convince you... ;D

the wait for avengers is going to be so worth is
Runefyst
Runefyst - 12/1/2009, 2:44 PM
@ Josh - Hmmmmmmm, maybe I'll check out supernatural tonight then. I've really got nothing on the go after work. Sides, most of the shows I usually watch are going into 'holiday mode' and aren't showing new episodes until January.

On another note, How is AC2 treatin' ya? I beat it a few nights ago and all in all, I thought it was amazing! Can't wait for #3. :)
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 12/1/2009, 3:21 PM
Runefyst: Is that Ezio in your avatar, lol? It's an excellent game - the ending was especially exciting although I thought it wrapped up a little too quickly...thats probably just because I didnt want it to end though!!! I finished it about a week ago and havent had a lot of time to go on it since but I'm planning on going back to collect the feathers and finish up the side missions (something I've been doing with every second I have had chance, lol!) in order to get the last few trophies! (by the way, if you have a PS3 add me - joshw_24)

You should most definitely give Supernatural a try - you wont be immpressed greatly right away because like with any show it takes a few episodes to find its stride and it gets better and better from there! The thing I like most about the show is that it was only ever designed to be 5 seasons and the shows creator planned one big storyline out in this way. You get a few filler episodes like with any show but the whole overall story is so rewarding with the events now going on in S5, its worth sticking with when you start!
Runefyst
Runefyst - 12/1/2009, 8:26 PM
Josh - Haha, yep, that's Ezio. Yeah, the ending left me wanting more too, but i figure that's kind've the point. I'm gonna go back & do that stuff too, but I'm gonna wait. I've been playing a lot've Street Fighter lately and now I gotta get caught up on Mass Effect before # 2 comes out. (Don't have a PS3.....yet. God of War 3 is out soon though....so that may change. If you have a 360 though, just look for Runefyst on Live:) )

Yeah, the fact that they designed Supernatural to be 5 seasons sounds really good. It's in the process of downloading now, so I'll probably start watching it tomorrow. The only show I can think of that started great was Heroes, but now it's like a rollar-coaster, sometimes great, sometimes crap. Right now though I'm liking it, mostly because of the character Samuel played by Robert Knepper. :)

TheNameIsBetty - 12/1/2009, 9:18 PM
he's kinda ugly. ewww

i dont think i have seen enough of him anywhere on tv or movies to really like him
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 12/2/2009, 3:02 AM
Runefyst: Im a big Robert Knepper fan from his time on Prison Break but never really got into Heroes - I've seen a few episodes but didnt really enjoy them that much but I'll probably watch it in one go or something when the series is over! Enjoy Supernatural - it became my favourite TV show very quickly! :)

I get what you mean about AC II - I just hope that they release sone DLC for the game! (which hopefully wont be exclusive to any one system because I dont have a 360 and I'd kill for the GTA DLC, lol!)
Runefyst
Runefyst - 12/2/2009, 6:34 AM
Josh - Oh yeah, I meant to mention that. DLC is already on the way. That's why I'm waiting on collecting feathers & such, I'll just finish doing that stuff along with the new content. :) Not much is known about it yet, but Ubisoft has said "You should keep 1 GB free on your console", so I'm guessing it'll be a pretty sizeable add on :)

Prison Break is where I got into Knepper as well, and when he showed up this season for Heroes, I was pumped. :)

You dont have to worrying all the non super powered heros will make the cut. It's cheaper to deal with a guy with a bow and a few arrows. Now one flying around shooting beams out of his hands and eyes,lifting up buildings,shrinking,teleporting,turning into fire etc can get a little costly. I'd rather see the costly guy or gal, but we're usually going to get Johan Hex,Batman,Hawkeye,Green Arrow,and so on it's just easier/cheaper to do.
