Can we talk about an actor who three years ago was supposed to be the next huge/breakout actor in Hollywood (many people in this thread and in general said that), ... but proceeded to barely be heard of from there on out?
Jeremy Renner.
Lets check out his resume...
Starred in the Hurt Locker (despite your view on that movie, he was great), superb supporting actor The Town.. had everyone excited about his arrival as one of the possible big dogs in Hollywood.
Then
Bourne Legacy (awesome trilogy tries to recapture the magic, falls flat on its face, impresses nobody, barely gets 50% on RT)
Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunter (17% on RT)
MI4 (where he put forth an acting performance that was absolutely lifeless)
Avengers (did anyone leave that movie with, "Wow, Jeremy Renner really was great in that movie")
This dude was on the cusp of being one of the IT actors. One of the guys where you would see him in a movie and be like, "Yep, well with him in it that has to be great." Then.... Digger.
He's taking the dough & running... I ain't mad...Just don't go the douche bag route like Nick Cage... Homey was still on point in The Town... I mean that's a homey right there, "Whose car are we going to take?" No questions, just ready to put in some work...
