No matter how successful a character is on screen, if negotiations don’t go well, their role may be doomed to disappear. Jeremy Renner had no qualms about saying ‘no’ to Disney for a second season of ‘Hawkeye’. The actor considers the offer presented by the company to be an “insult” to his figure.
He himself says that his first reaction was one of total stupefaction: “Sorry? Why? Do you think I’m only half of Jeremy because I got run over? Maybe that’s why you want to pay me half of what I earned in the first season.” With the substantial drop in his salary, Renner has no intention of donning Marvel’s archer suit again.

Is Jeremy Renner saying goodbye to Marvel and his ‘Hawkeye’?
The actor explains that there is no reason for this pay cut, as it will cost him “twice the work and time” for half the “money”. Even so, he shows his disagreement at not being able to be Hawkeye again, for the moment. “I’d still love to do it, but I had to stand up for myself. I just asked for what I was earning in the first season”.
Although he is sorry to have to turn down the project, the actor considers that it is not bad news for his physical condition. “I’m happy to let it go, because my body is probably thanking me, over and over again, that I’m not doing it now. But we’ll see,” he says.
Anyway, Renner exonerates the company that gave him the opportunity to get into the character: “This is not Marvel. This is like, just Disney. I don’t even think it’s really Disney. It’s just the penny pinchers, the accountants. I told them to go to hell. I mean, just the offer was an insult. So we didn’t agree.”

Es incluso mejor que la serie: el juego de mesa Marvel Zombies es tan bueno que me ha volado la cabeza
El universo marvelita nos ha dejado desde tiempos inmemoriales con toda clase de grandes experiencias, desde cómics a películas, pasando por series, videojuegos y más. No obstante, lo que más me ha sorprendido en tiempos recientes ha sido un juego de mesa. Me refiero a Marvel Zombies.Tal y como su propio nombre indica, se inspira en el universo zombi de los cómics (o de la nueva serie) tomando como referencia otro clásico de los juegos de mesa: Zombicide.En Marvel Zombies controlaremos a un conjunto de héroes zombificados en un mundo en el que algunos héroes y agentes de S.H.I.E.L.D. permanecen todavía con vida, pero... ¿será así por mucho tiempo?A diferencia de otros juegos de mesa, en Marvel Zombies tomamos el papel de lo que —históricamente hablando— serían los antagonistas... hasta cierto punto.Marvel Zombies ya es uno de mis juegos de […]
How the Aces’ bench flipped Game 1 and exposed the Mercury’s biggest weakness
The Las Vegas Aces showed everyone that a championship isn't won by stars alone. In Game 1 of the 2025 WNBA Finals, the Aces leaned heavily on their depth to snatch an 89-86 victory over the Phoenix Mercury, turning what looked like a likely loss into a statement win. Behind clutch contributions from the second unit, Las Vegas erased a late deficit and took control of the series before it even truly began.Phoenix held the lead for most of the night, fueled by standout performances from Kahleah Copper, Satou Sabally, and Alyssa Thomas.But when it mattered, the Aces' bench rose to the occasion. Dana Evans poured in 21 points off the bench, matching game highs held by four-time MVP A'ja Wilson and Copper. Jewell Loyd added 18 more from the pine, and together they pulled the Aces back from the […]
Yankees make bold call with Luis Gil for Game 1 as Boone hints more surprises ahead
The New York Yankees have turned heads just days before their American League Division Series begins. Manager Aaron Boone confirmed on Friday that Luis Gil will start Game 1 against the Toronto Blue Jays, even though the righthander was not on the Wild Card roster. He also allowed that further adjustments to the postseason roster remain possible.Boone told reporters simply, "Just feel like he's ready for this ... we feel like Luis is ready to go." "Luis Gil is starting Game 1 for the Yankees. Boone says there could be other roster changes for NY, ahead of Blue Jays series," MLB insider Mitch Bannon later tweeted, quoting Boone directly.Gil's selection is bold given the context: he missed much of the regular season with a high-grade lat strain and was not used in the Wild Card series. Nevertheless, he closed the […]
Confident, Disciplined, Explosive: Ohio State’s Defense Chasing Greatness

Liberec hostí Bohemians, Pardubice vyhlíží první výhru
Hledá se forma. Zn. spěchá. Asi tak lze popsat rozpoložení, v němž se momentálně nachází třináctá Dukla i patnácté Teplice. Mančaft z Julisky vyhrál v nejvyšší soutěži jen 16. srpna proti Plzni, od daného momentu zaknihoval tři porážky (Sparta, Bohemians, Slavia) a dvě remízy. Jediný triumf Sklářů je ještě o dva týdny starší, porazili 3:0 Bohemians ve druhém kole. I proto dělí v tabulce obě mužstva jeden jediný bodík.Výrazně povedenější vstup do sezony si zajisté představovala i dvanáctá Mladá Boleslav, stejně jako čtrnácté Slovácko. Domácí mají k dobru odloženou dohrávku s Bohemians (nový termín 22. října) a jeden zápas oproti zbytku soutěže k dobru, ale i tak tuší, že mají na víc. Proti mančaftu z Uherského Hradiště, který v sezoně vyhrál zatím jen nad Teplicemi, se papírově nabízí slušná příležitost. Ale i Slovácko umí kousat, ve čtvrtém kole například uhrálo cennou remízu 1:1 v Plzni. Z posledních pěti zápasů ale uhrálo pouze bod v Pardubicích.Právě poslední celek tabulky z Pardubic zůstává i po trenérské rošádě jediným, […]
Ryan Clark warns Shedeur Sanders: “Quit feeding the beast” amid media criticism
Shedeur Sanders, the Cleveland Browns' rookie quarterback, recently found himself at the center of media attention following a silent, mime-like press interaction. This unconventional and especially unusual response came after the Browns announced fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel as the starting quarterback for their Week 5 game in London, relegating Sanders to third-string status. The incident sparked widespread discussion, with various analysts and former players weighing in on Sanders' conduct and its implications for his professional image.Ryan Clark's perspectiveFormer NFL safety and current ESPN analyst Ryan Clark addressed the situation, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in the face of media scrutiny. Clark acknowledged Sanders' right to express himself but advised caution in how such expressions are perceived. He stated:"I'm not asking Shedeur to be inauthentic; I'm asking him to be aware."Clark's comments suggest that while self-expression is vital, understanding the potential […]
