Depends on how much his character was supposed appear.

If it was just cameos, with Kate Bishop/Hailee Steinfeld getting most of the screentime, then of course.

How can it be Hawkeye without … you know … Hawkeye?

Are you just repeating her name so she knows you know it?

Good for him, and he’s just asking for his original salary. Pay this man!👏👏👏 Isn’t Hawkeye supposed to be one of the better Marvel Disney+ shows anyway? Watch them come crawling back

I didn't watch it but my understanding is that Hawkeye passed on the torch and he probably was going to be more in the background instead of the star. I don't know the exact parameters but I imagine it would not be as much screen time or physically demanding scenes. Fuck Disney for being a shitty company but I'm not sure if this is 100% attributable to that.

It was campy. Not great, but not terrible. Formulaic but overall okay.

I feel like The Marvels (I think?) ties the ending of Hawkeye with the rest of the MCU.

The best thing about Hawkeye was the Florence Pough (sp?) character. Just pure comedy.

Season 1 is all about the character being completely worn out so now he fits the role even more

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago

Semi-off-topic, but a reminder that Disney (and Disney+ in particular) is on the Boycott, Divest, Sanction list.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 18 points 1 week ago

I saw season one as kind of passing the torch anyway. If he didn’t appear in season two, the show would be just fine without him.

I’m a Hawkeye fan, not a Renner fan.

Oh no... rich person gets offered to be paid millions instead of being paid millions...

[–] qevlarr@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Think worker vs shareholder, not just rich vs poor. Never take a job for less, always negotiate, or you're only leaving more money for the owners

Also, plenty of these people will take lower paying jobs, just not from Disney and not from a multi billion dollar franchise.
