His new film
Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, directed by Brad Bird is coming out in December, and with that,
Coming Soon recently talked to Jeremy Renner about couple of his projects, including Marvel's
The Avengers, what he thinks about Marvel Cinematic Universe and more.
"[I] was blessed to be a part of [the Marvel] universe," he continued, "because I love what Marvel did with something so fantastical and unrealistic, making it kind of plausible, like when they did "Iron Man". I just thought those were really great movies, the first one in particular... The character of Hawkeye was always cool. He's kind of a rogue, shadowy character. That's what attracted me to him. Then he's also a human being. He just has a high skill set, so they call him a superhero."
Starring Robert Downey, Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner and Cobie Smulders,
The Avengers is set to hit theatres on May 4, 2012!
