Early life

Renner is also of German descent.[10]

Renner graduated from Fred C. Beyer High School in Modesto in 1989.[4] He attended Modesto Junior College, where he studied computer science and criminology, before he took a drama class as an elective and decided to pursue acting.[4][11]

Career

Early work

Renner made his film debut as an underachieving student in the 1995 comedy National Lampoon's Senior Trip.[12] Although the film was critically panned, he went on to guest star on two television shows, Deadly Games and Strange Luck, and had a minor role in the television film A Friend's Betrayal as the friend of Paul Hewitt (Brian Austin Green). Over the next few years, Renner had guest roles in Zoe, Duncan, Jack and Jane (1999), The Net (1999), The Time of Your Life (1999), and Angel (2000).[13] Renner had a small role in an episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation in 2001. Renner worked as a makeup artist during this period to help make ends meet.[14]

Early success: 2002–2008

In 2002, Renner starred in Dahmer as the eponymous serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. He found the non-fiction role a challenge to cope with after he had finished shooting the film, knowing that Dahmer murdered seventeen victims.[15] His performance was well received, and he gained a nomination for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Lead Male. He also appeared in Pink's 2003 music video for her song "Trouble" as a Bad Boy Sheriff.[16] Renner went on to appear in S.W.A.T.[17] as the former police partner of Colin Farrell's character in 2003 and The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things in 2004.[18]

In 2005, Renner starred with Julia Stiles and Forest Whitaker in A Little Trip to Heaven,[19] with roles in North Country and 12 and Holding. He next starred as a neo-Nazi skinhead who is admitted into a psychiatric hospital in Neo Ned with Gabrielle Union. The film won awards at multiple film festivals, including the Palm Beach International Film Festival Award for Best Actor. Renner also had a small (though uncredited) role in skateboard film Lords of Dogtown as the manager of Emile Hirsch's character. In 2006, he starred with Ginnifer Goodwin in Love Comes to the Executioner.

Renner had supporting roles in 2007 in the critically acclaimed The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford as Wood Hite, the cousin of outlaw Jesse James (portrayed by Brad Pitt), and as Sergeant Doyle in 28 Weeks Later.[20] He starred with Minnie Driver in Take and guest starred as a patient in an episode of House as a reckless rock musician.

After starring with Dallas Roberts in the comedy-drama Ingenious and starring in the short-lived television series The Unusuals, Renner went on to achieve critical success for his portrayal of bomb disposal expert, Sergeant William James in the 2009 Iraq war thriller The Hurt Locker (directed by Kathryn Bigelow). The role earned him several awards in the Best Actor category and his first Academy Award nomination for Best Actor[23] as well a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination.[24]

In 2010, Renner's performance in Ben Affleck's The Town alongside Jon Hamm, Blake Lively, Slaine and Michael Yebba garnered him rave reviews and his second Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor.[25] He also gained his first Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor[26] and his second Screen Actors Guild nomination.[27] The Hollywood Reporter named Renner as one of the young male actors who are "pushing – or being pushed" into taking over Hollywood as the new "A-List".[28]

In 2011, Renner had an uncredited cameo appearance as Hawkeye in Thor for familiarity with his character for The Avengers, which was released in May 2012.[29][30][31] The same year, he also starred in the fourth film in the Bourne franchise, The Bourne Legacy, which was written and directed by Tony Gilroy.[32] Renner played a new lead character, Aaron Cross, in place of Jason Bourne, who was played by Matt Damon in the first three films. Renner has expressed interest in doing a Bourne film with Damon in the future, stating that "[it] would be kick-ass. I love Matt".[33]

Renner starred in the action horror film Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters (released in January 2013), in which he and Gemma Arterton played Hansel and Gretel, respectively. The 3-D film was set 15 years after Hansel and Gretel killed the witch who kidnapped them.[34] Renner was also featured in the ensemble cast of David O. Russell's dramedy American Hustle based on the controversial FBI ABSCAM operation of the late 1970s and early 1980s. The film, which was released in December 2013, also starred Christian Bale, Bradley Cooper, Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence in principal roles. The film earned much critical acclaim, including the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture and a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Picture. In October 2014, Renner starred as journalist Gary Webb in the Focus Features film Kill the Messenger, based on Webb's book Dark Alliance. Renner also co-produced the film.

In 2016, History announced their historical drama Knightfall, executive produced by Renner, who is expected to guest star.[41] In 2017, while working on the film Tag (2018), Renner fractured his right elbow and his left wrist.[42] He also appeared in the film Wind River with his MCU co-star Elizabeth Olsen.[43]

Renner filmed scenes as Hawkeye for Avengers: Infinity War[44] and Avengers: Endgame,[45] but ultimately did not appear in the former.[46] Because of resulting scheduling conflicts, he was unable to reprise the role of William Brandt in Mission: Impossible – Fallout (2018).[47] In July 2018, Jeremy Renner was announced to play Twitch Williams in Todd McFarlane's Spawn reboot.[48]

Jeremy Renner Official mobile app

Renner released a mobile app called "Jeremy Renner" (Android) and "Jeremy Renner Official" (iOS) in March 2017. The app was created by Escapex, a company that specializes in monetized apps for celebrities.[51]

FastCompany wrote extensively about Renner's app in April 2019, calling it "a surprising new kind of social media".[52] Discussing the self-referential nature of the app, The Ringer stated "Jeremy Renner's Jeremy Renner app is the Jeremy Renner of apps."[53]

The community developed to include memes, selfies, and a "Happy Rennsday" event on Wednesdays. As early as October 2017, there were claims of censorship, bullying, and "contest-rigging". In September 2019, comedian Stefan Heck publicized his discovery of the fact that replies through the app appear as if they were sent by Renner himself in push notifications. After several users abused this feature, Renner asked Escapex to shut down the app.[54][55][56][57][58]

Renner married Canadian model Sonni Pacheco on January 13, 2014.[59] Renner and Pacheco have a daughter.[60] On December 30, 2014, Pacheco filed for divorce from Renner, citing irreconcilable differences.[61] They share custody of their daughter.[62] Pacheco and their daughter make cameo appearances in the film American Hustle in which Renner plays Carmine Polito, the mayor of Camden, New Jersey.

Renner lives in Washoe County, Nevada.[63][64][65] He has a house-renovating business with his best friend and fellow actor, Kristoffer Winters.[12][66] He has studied Arnis and Muay Thai martial arts as preparation for his roles in the Mission: Impossible and Avengers franchises.[3][7]
