The future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's (MCU) original archer is in jeopardy as Jeremy Renner has publicly rejected a return for Hawkeye Season 2, citing an 'insulting' salary offer from Disney accountants that devalues his recovery and contribution to the franchise.
Following his miraculous recovery from a 2023 snowcat accident that left him with 38 broken bones, Renner revealed in his recent memoir, My Next Breath, and on the High Performance podcast that Disney attempted to slash his salary in half for a second season of the hit Disney+ series.
