Journal Post 6: Writer’s Choice

     Similar to my last post, this article is by Geoff Boucher as well and is about the much-anticipated film “The Avengers”. Joss Whedon is the director and screenwriter of this Marvel action piece. The article focuses on the Jeremy Renner’s performance in the film playing the part of Hawkeye, an archer known as the “World’s Greatest Marksman”. Renner does a magnificent job of portraying Hawkeye and living the part. Boucher interviewed the director Whedon, ““I love him because he really could not be less of a team player,” Whedon said. “He’s a sniper. That’s the first thing Jeremy ever said to me — it’s this guy’s job to be removed from everybody else and just to watch. So for him to throw in is a very personal thing.””. It seems like he played the part so well which makes me want to see the movie in theaters when May 4 comes around.
