Jeremy Renner says Hawkeye will sit out Avengers: Doomsday
Renner says he was not invited back for the film; his joke about the Avengers losing is a comment, not a confirmed plot detail.

Jeremy Renner says he will not appear as Hawkeye in Avengers: Doomsday, according to a new report by Variety. The actor said he had not been called to return for the film.
Renner followed that answer with a joke that the Avengers would lose without him. The remark is his own reaction to sitting out the movie. It is not a confirmed account of the story or its ending.
What the comments establish
The immediate news is Renner’s description of his involvement in this particular film. His statement does not settle Hawkeye’s future across every Marvel project or reveal the full cast.
Variety reports that Renner also welcomed the theatrical return of Avengers: Endgame, a film in which he played the character. The new comments follow his earlier public interest in returning to the Marvel world. They do not amount to an announcement of another Hawkeye series.
