A second season of Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye might still be up in the air, but with new details about the previous season, it’s a wonder how we even got a first. During an appearance on The Ringer’s podcast, The Watch, Wonder Man showrunner Andrew Guest revealed that the show was completely transformed mere weeks before cameras were set to roll.
The nail-biting gig ended up on Guest’s doorstep after the co-handler of Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame, and the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday called him to ask whether he’d be interested in ironing out Clint’s upcoming adventure. From there, executive producer Trinh Tran followed. "She says, 'I’m going to send you six one-hour episodes,’” recalls Guest. “‘I want to meet tomorrow to talk about it. We start shooting in New York in a week and a half, and we want to rewrite the whole thing.’”
