Hawkeye’s Stunt Coordinator Answers All Our Burning Questions

E! News: Are there any key differences to filming a Marvel show versus a movie?

Heidi Moneymaker: I would say it’s basically like doing a six-hour Marvel film. At least on my end, the action is just as big. The scenes are big, but instead of it being a two-hour movie, it’s six hours of content. However, sometimes we don’t get the same kind of prep and time to shoot it that you would if you were shooting a six-hour film. So there’s a little bit of a challenge there, but I would it’s say very, very, very similar.

E!: You have such a long history with the Marvel movies, which means you’ve worked closely with Jeremy Renner before. Was it kind of different to be his stunt boss for Hawkeye?

HM: You know, I have known Jeremy for a really long time and we have worked really closely together. And I’ve spent a lot of time in rehearsals with him, training him for action scenes in the past, so we kind of had that relationship a little bit. But I’ve never really been in a position as his stunt coordinator. So it was a fun opportunity.

He’s such a great, wonderful, open guy and he works really, really hard that he made my job pretty easy. I got to help design his style of action.
