Hawkeye won’t be in ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp’: Director

Ant-Man and the Wasp director Peyton Reed has rubbished reports of Hawkeye joining Ant-Man and the Wasp.

Taking the leaf out of Donald Trump's book, the director took to Twitter to clarify the report, "The Russians are swarm-tweeting that Hawkeye is in ANT-MAN AND THE WASP.

#FakeNews."

Jeremy Renner himself hasn't commented on the reports, but he is currently in Atlanta to film Avengers: Infinity War with Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

Reed, who directed the first Ant-Man film, will return behind the lens for the sequel.

Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly are expected to reprise their roles as Scott Lang and Hope van Dyne respectively. It's scheduled to arrive in theaters Stateside on July 6, 2018.
