More quotes by Jeremy Renner
When I was growing up, I wasn't taught how to feel or communicate feelings.
Jeremy Renner
There are rumblings of Captain America 3. I don’t know what’s going to happen there. I’ve got to find the time, man. I’m trying to stay home and I can’t.
Jeremy Renner
I think, strangely, a strip club can tell you a lot about the city you're in. If you call a strip club Tuna's, I've gotta go in there. Usually you're not seeing the top talent around, but it's not about that. It's about the experience.
Jeremy Renner
I used to hang out at karaoke bars all the time. It was the most fun you could have when you had no money.
Jeremy Renner
Our friendship [ with Don Handfield] has remained all that time, and I'm godfather to his kids, but then when The Hurt Locker came around, I just knew there was a lot of opportunity that was coming in, and just couldn't really manifest any opportunities because things were busy.
Jeremy Renner
If you dissect my career as an actor, and you can pull out more than enough of those type of movies, from The Hurt Locker and The Town and so on and so forth, and that's kind of where our wheelhouse is. We love it.
Jeremy Renner
I have a bad sweet tooth. I'm pretty good when I have to eat well for work, but otherwise, I could eat a whole roll of raw cookie dough.
Jeremy Renner
You have to wait for a big star to come in and generate interest on a project, and now that has become me, which is an amazing blessing.
Jeremy Renner
So I take a little sleeping pill, pop it and realize nothing's happening - but something else was happening.
Jeremy Renner
Music I do just for me.
Jeremy Renner
I like repressed characters. That gives me a lot of freedom to make a lot of different choices through subtleties.
Jeremy Renner
I don't want to play a bad guy who doesn't have a bit of good in him.
Jeremy Renner
I think that'll always be there for [Clint] Barton, right? You have real life, and then you have fight life. And that's the character that I love now - discovering that in him makes him a very sort of accessible Avenger. That'll always be there, I'm sure. And it certainly plays in this one.
Jeremy Renner
Barton is a pretty brass tacks kind of guy. Kinda get the job done so I can go home. So I don't think it's very difficult for him to decide.
Jeremy Renner
People find themselves in ruts all the time. You're in a complacent lifestyle where you work 9 to 5 and then you add a mortgage and kids. You feel trapped, but guess what, brother? You constructed that life. If you're OK with it, there's nothing wrong with that. But if you've got unease, then you've got to make a change.
Jeremy Renner
I can't totally talk about why we divide, but... it's interesting because we're doing this scene today that's sort of the pinnacle of that. Two gangs fighting against each other, ultimately knowing that... ya know, it's like friends fighting friends. To me it's fun, personally.
Jeremy Renner
We want to make people feel something after they buy that ticket.
Jeremy Renner
I'm attracted to those kinds of roles that could be good or could be bad, and you just don't know.
Jeremy Renner
We had tried to get a couple books that were written about Ray Kroc, and one of the books, we called the publisher. The publisher actually said, Call McDonald.
Jeremy Renner
I don't do well with expectation in my life. All I can do is do the best that I can do.
