We have seen Renner take on the role of Hawkeye in Thor, Avengers: Assemble, Avengers: Age of Ultron and is set to reprise the role in the upcoming Marvel movie Captain America: Civil War.
Over the last year, we have seen Netflix develop TV series for characters like Daredevil and Jessica Jones, shows that have been hugely successful. And now Renner is saying that he would be 'open' to a similar opportunity for his character.
Speaking during a Q&A session at the Silicon Valley Comic Con, the actor said: "I think that's actually a really great model, if there's ever a way to explore the character, maybe it's in that world. These are things that are really not in my control, but I'd be open to it. I've really enjoyed getting to explore the character more recently.
"The Netflix model is where all the character drama goes to now. You're doing a superhero movie or a Netflix or HBO kind of model. So I'd be open to it. Not up to me, though."
Captain America: Civil War is set to be one of the biggest comic book movies of 2016 and we will see Renner take on the role of Hawkeye for the first time since the huge success of Avengers: Age of Ultron last year.
The movie will see Renner reunite with Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr, Scarlett Johansson, Elizabeth Olsen, and Paul Bettany as they reprise their roles as Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow, Scarlet Witch, and The Vision.
Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Paul Rudd, Don Cheadle, Chadwick Boseman, and Tom Holland make up an all-star and very exciting cast list.
Civil War will be the first big screen outing for Renner since Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation. He has also completed work on Story of Your Life, which is set to be released later this year.
Captain America: Civil War is released 29th April.
