Description: A veteran of shows like Saturday Night Live, Documentary Now, and John Mulaney And The Sack Lunch Bunch, Rhys Thomas is no stranger to world-building. Perhaps that’s why he was such a natural choice for Hawkeye, the new Disney Plus series that helps transition the arrow-strewn mantle from Jeremy Renner to Hailee Steinfeld. (Or so we presume.) Six episodes set over six days around Christmas in New York, Hawkeye finds Thomas tackling Hawkeye’s real life aches and pains and building a story around what he calls Jeremy Renner’s “grumpy” face. In the interview above, we talk to the producer and director about what he thinks Hawkeye says about youth, age, and the passage of time. #Hawkeye #MCU #BillHader Visit: avclub.com Like: fb.com/theavclub Follow: twitter.com/theavclub
