Reddit has been filled with praise for Jeremy Renner for his contributions to some of the most popular franchises to come out of Hollywood. Be it Mission Impossible, The Bourne Series, or the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Jeremy Renner has always been able to deliver great performances regardless of the role he is given.

Jeremy Renner was especially appreciated for his work as Hawkeye, though a lot of fans feel that he should have been given way more to do in the MCU. While the actor got his own show that introduced Kate Bishop to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the actor still has a lot of potential, given that Hawkeye is one of the few remaining Avengers who can help usher in the age of new heroes.

Given that Kamala Khan is assembling a team of young superheroes as The Marvels, it can be assumed that the Avengers are not going to send children into battle. If anything, the Young Avengers could serve more as a training program for young heroes, which Hawkeye could helm as a den mother.

While these young heroes are trained by SHIELD, Hawkeye could serve as a representative of the Avengers to make sure that they are well taken care of, given that the hero has had his share of trauma and is looking to redeem himself after the death of Natasha Romanoff and his actions as Ronin between Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.

Hawkeye can be streamed on Disney+.
