While Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye is a member of the original Avengers faction, his first entry wasn’t exactly as impactful as the rest of his peers. Although the later entries in the MCU, especiallyAvengers: Age of Ultron, take a deep dive into his story and Hawkeye gets his moment to shine inAvengers: Endgame, his MCU debut left a lot to be desired for the actor.
Back in 2012,The Avengerstook the world by storm upon its release, and while it succeeded in handling most of the characters with perfection, some did have to take a step backward. Among these, the most notable one was Renner’s Hawkeye and it was frustrating for the actor.

Working onThe Avengerswas a frustrating experience for Jeremy Renner
UnlikeJoss Whedon‘sAge of Ultron, which witnesses a deeper dive into Hawkeye and his family, the same can’t be said forThe Avengers, as for the most part, he was one of Loki’s hypnotized minions. Keeping in mind this was his MCU debut, not getting to play the character for real for the most part was a frustrating experience forJeremy Renner. PerThe Guardian, he said,
“That was my first chance getting to play the character and I wasn’t really getting to play him at all. ‘Hi, my name’s Clint – bzzzzzzzzz. It was frustrating. I don’t even know at that point how the guy walks and talks, ’cos he got turned into this other dude. Joss [Whedon] was really apologetic. He had an impossible task trying to fit all those characters into one movie.”
Thankfully, things worked out during his next outing, making Hawkeye a fan-favorite, and Renner was glad he“got to find the character next time around.”
