When Renner gave an answer, J.J. Abrams asked him“Do you want to go meet Tom [Cruise] right now?”and that led to a meeting with Cruise at Paramount Studios. Cruise tried to convinceJeremy Rennerto take the role and join theMission: Impossiblefranchise. But what seemed to take the cake was when Cruise called Renner on his home phone and pitched even harder for the film!
“It was a strange experience and an interesting meeting. And by the time I get home on my motorcycle, I get off my helmet, and the phone rings, and it’s Tom calling me at my house. I’m like, ‘That’s weird, Tom Cruise is calling me at home’…. So he’s like, ‘Are we doing this? Come on, are we doing it?’ So now all of a sudden I’m signed on to do three Mission: Impossible movies with Tom.”
Who would’ve thought that after his contract with Tom Cruise for theMission: Impossiblefranchise, he was also offered the role of Aaron Cross in the 2012 filmThe Bourne Legacy.And he yet had to finish shootingThe Avengers.
