More quotes by Jeremy Renner
Building a house is like producing a movie. There's no right way to do it but a lot of wrong ways. You have to be flexible and creative. You have to move fast, be prepared - or it quickly becomes costly.
Jeremy Renner
I like repressed characters. That gives me a lot of freedom to make a lot of different choices through subtleties.
Jeremy Renner
What matters to me is learning and growing, and getting to do what I love to do. As long as I can do that, I'm happy.
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
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
I have a hard time saying no if it's right. I don't say no to say no. I said no when I didn't have a pot to piss in. I still said no to big money jobs because they didn't make creative sense to me.
Jeremy Renner
I'm consciously aware, specifically with the comic book world, where there's a built-in fanbase. But, there's a little bit of leniency because there are a couple different universes.
Jeremy Renner
I like to play unpredictable characters, and I like to be unpredictable in what movie I'll do. I want to skip to work. I don't want to repeat anything. What the future holds, I don't know, but that's what I like. I'll take any risk there is.
Jeremy Renner
I only scream and scratch when something's only 'really good' or 'good', I want to be great, or let's go home.
Jeremy Renner
I don't really think there's much difference between a character actor and a leading man besides aesthetics.
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
Don [ Handfield] was actually one of the first guys I met in town back in '94. He was an actor and a writer and all this stuff.
Jeremy Renner
I'm blessed to have cool roles in these big movies.
Jeremy Renner
So I take a little sleeping pill, pop it and realize nothing's happening - but something else was happening.
Jeremy Renner
I lived by the candlelight for two years because I couldn't afford power. It was nice and romantic at the time, but if you can't afford power you're pretty broke. You endure it.
Jeremy Renner
I need to react to a script, to feel strongly about it in some way. And I need it to be a complex character for sure. And also, I think a lot about what kind of audience there is for the film, what they're looking for and ways to connect with them in the playing of a character.
Jeremy Renner
I think there's a great connection between these two characters for sure. I mean, I don't know if she's coming over for dinner on the Barton ranch.
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
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
Grab love of life every day. Because we're all gonna die. It's difficult to live that way. Most people are afraid to. Or can't. I find it very difficult.
Jeremy Renner
