With his Oscar nominated performance in The Hurt Locker behind him, Jeremy Renner has officially joined the cast of the big screen adaptation of Marvel comics " The Avengers," after months of speculation.
Renner will play the bow-and-arrow hero Hawkeye, who eventually became an essential member of the team after becoming a hero from a villian.
For those keeping score, Renner is joining Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man/Tony Stark, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Chris Evans as Captain America, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury, and Don Cheadle as War Machine with the movie being directed by Joss Whedon ( Buffy the Vampire Slayer).
I think its a pretty great casting choice, Renner was great in The Hurt Locker and he's already joining an established cast of talent. My fear is that with to many characters the proper story won't be told, lets hope thats not the case.
