Jeremy Renner Says the Avengers Will Lose in Doomsday and It's 'Their Fault' Because They 'Didn't Call' Hawkeye
Marvel star Jeremy Renner said the Avengers will lose in Doomsday, and it's "their fault" because they didn't give his Hawkeye a call.
In a recent interview, Marvel actor Jeremy Renner claimed that the Avengers would lose in Doomsday and it is their fault for not calling Hawkeye. Renner confirmed that he would not participate in the upcoming movie, which is set to premiere in December 2026. This news may disappoint fans of his Hawkeye character, especially after previous hints that he might return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Despite his absence, Renner expressed no bitterness, openly joking that it is the Avengers' fault for not reaching out to him. Renner's Hawkeye has been a fan favorite since 2011's Thor, appearing in several MCU projects, including the original Avengers, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Captain America: Civil War. He also led as the main character in Disney+ series Hawkeye in 2021.
However, Renner was absent during the catastrophic Avengers: Infinity War in 2018. Fans were left with the joke that Hawkeye's presence could have changed the outcome. Renner did return to help in Avengers: Endgame, which saw the heroes triumph. The actor expressed excitement about watching the movie's Encore re-release the following month, taking his daughter to see it. Currently, Renner's future in the Avengers and his role as Hawkeye remains uncertain.
