Jeremy Renner Shared How RDJ Planned about Breaking Chris Hemsworth’s Knees

In a podcast, the Dahmer star shared how everyone was excited and it looked like Halloween when The Avengers star cast first assembled in their costumes. Renner went ahead and mentioned how everyone present knew each other in one way or the other except Chris Hemsworth. Thor: Love and Thunder star was from Australia and a complete unknown to the cast. Yet being a stranger, Hemsworth’s charisma marked his very presence on the set. On witnessing Hemsworth’s charisma Robert Downey Jr. (RDJ) jokingly planned on breaking Hemsworth’s knees to bring his height and charisma down.

“We’re all kind of parading around in our costumes. So it looks like it’s Halloween. We’re excited and equally feeling ridiculous. I feel like we all kind of knew each other, somehow, some way. Except we didn’t know this Hemsworth guy, because he comes from Australia. He’s the tallest, he’s the most good-looking. Downey was like, ‘We’ve got to break his knee. We’ve got to take him out. This guy’s too good-looking. He’s too tall. He’s too charming. F–k this guy’. ” 

Another fellow Marvel star cast Paul Rudd aka Ant-Man shared an instance where he felt all his hardcore workouts for shooting the Avengers: Endgame was of no use just by standing beside Hemsworth.

“I remember on the set of Avengers: Endgame, I was working out so hard, eating perfect, for so long, training like an athlete. And I stood next to Chris Hemsworth, and I thought, ‘What’s the point?’ Why even try, ’cause there’s that.”

Jeremy Renner Loves his MCU Cast

The Hawkeye actor revealed how the star cast has been bonded on personal grounds while working on professional sets. The actor shared how he is especially close to the initial six original stars cast featured in the 2012 movie The Avengers. The Kill the Messenger star continued by stating how his co-stars and he went through a roller coaster ride both in real and reel life to be a family in the true sense, after their first meet in the hit series of The Avengers.

“You can’t replace that or quantify it. Everyone’s a celebrity in their own right. But a Marvel celebrity, especially as the original six, has just been on a different kind of journey. There’s been marriages and divorces and kids being born and a lot of shifts and changes in our personal lives, as well as our acting lives, that we all share together in a very specific way.”
