Directors Joe and Anthony Russo Reveals Cut Captain America vs. Hawkeye Scene from Captain America 2 The Winter Soldier

Jeremy Renner said recently that he could appear as Hawkeye in Captain America 3, but there were actually some plans for him to have a part in Captain America: The Winter Soldier earlier this year. Now, co-directors Joe Russo and Anthony Russo have revealed what the cut scene would have looked like between the two Avengers.

Screen Rant asked the brothers for detail on the scene, and they revealed the fight sequence would have shown Hawkeye is loyal to Cap (Chris Evans) rather than S.H.I.E.L.D. It also would have explained why Captain America got rid of his S.H.I.E.L.D. costume.

"What it was going to be, we were trying to complicate the relationship between Cap and his S.H.I.E.L.D agent friends. If Hawkeye got a call from S.H.I.E.L.D saying Captain America is a fugitive, would he listen to that call or not listen to that call?

That sequence actually was heartbreaking for us to cut it. I think it ultimately might have been a conflict with Renner's schedule. But there was a great sequence where Hawkeye was chasing Cap through Washington D.C. there was an awesome sequence where they confronted each other in a ravine on the outskirts of D.C. and Hawkeye was shooting a series of arrows closing in on Cap, Cap closing in on him.

And then Cap took him down and he realized for the first time that Hawkeye was trying to trick S.H.I.E.L.D, where he whispered something into Cap's ear that Cap had a tracker on his suit and to punch Hawkeye to make it look real, because there was a Quinjet hovering above where they were watching the feedback back at S.H.I.E.L.D. So it was a cool sequence."
