MCU Star Teases a Completely New Avengers Project

Jeremy Renner is teasing the West Coast Avengers and the return of Hawkeye, which would make complete sense for MCU right now

MCU Star Teases a Completely New Avengers Project

Actor Jeremy Renner has recently shared images of The West Coast Avengers comic books on social media, hinting at a potential new Avengers-related project. The West Coast Avengers, an offshoot of the Avengers, first appeared in Marvel Comics back in 1984. This team, based in California, originally featured Hawkeye, Mockingbird, Wonder Man, Tigra, War Machine, and Vision.

Renner, who portrayed Clint Barton in the MCU, expressed his openness to playing the character again in other projects. He also mentioned his interest in joining a West Coast Avengers series, as there were no plans for a Young Avengers series. The West Coast Avengers could provide an opportunity for various MCU characters, including Wonder Man and Vision, who debuted in the MCU this year and the latest incarnation of the team led by Kate Bishop.

However, Renner was not expected to reprise his Hawkeye role in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday film, due to a 2023 accident that left him with several broken bones and a dispute over his salary for the second season of Hawkeye.
