Scarlett Johansson and Jeremy Renner Talk About The Avengers’ Black Widow and Hawkeye

What’s interesting about Scarlett Johansson and Jeremy Renner’s characters in The Avengers is that neither one actually has superpowers. They play Black Widow and Hawkeye, respectively, both of whom are trained . agents who just happen to be amazing at kicking butt. I recently chatted with the duo at the film’s press day in LA, where they discussed their characters’ backstories and why the film is funnier than they expected. Johansson also discussed what it’s like to play the only female Avenger. Watch!
