Disney has debunked the rumors regarding Jeremy Renner’s upcoming Hawkeye series facing a production delay.
At San Diego Comic-Con, it was revealed that Jeremy Renner would be getting his own solo Hawkeye series for Disney Plus. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige also announced that Hawkeye will feature the Marvel Cinematic Universe debut of Kate Bishop and be inspired by Matt Fraction’s comic book run. It has also been reported that Bumblebee star Hailee Steinfeld has the offer to play Kate Bishop opposite Jeremy Renner’s Clint Barton.
Over the weekend, a report made the rounds from Murphy’s Multiverse that Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye Disney Plus series was delayed indefinitely and removed from Marvel Studios’ 2020 production schedule. Today, that report has been debunked by Disney after The Verge’s Julia Alexander reached out and shared the following on Twitter:
“Disney contacts have vehemently denied it, calling it completely inaccurate.”
