Jeremy Renner Talks About Taking A Break Between Action Films! Does He Want To Star Opposite Matt Damon In 'Bourne 5?'

Jeremy Renner seems like an actor who can easily handle action films. After all, he is best known as the Avengers' resident archer Clint Barton a.k.a Hawkeye, and he has just reprised his role as Agent William Brandt in the Tom Cruise film 'Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation.'

However, in a recent interview with ScreenRant, Jeremy Renner admits that often prefers resting in between those non-stop action sequences.

Jeremy Renner was asked whether he has to burn off the adrenaline between movies.

"I think it has to do with my body; to let my body take a break," he said. "Yeah, I just think it's what my body can take. I don't want to run at 100 miles an hour all year long; just like, you know, for a minute."

He would need a lot of rest. 'Avengers' and 'Mission: Impossible' are not the only action films Jeremy Renner has appeared in. He has previously played Aaron Cross in 'The Bourne Legacy,' which was supposed to get a sequel until Matt Damon stepped in and proposed that Jason Bourne should return.

Fans have long wanted to see a collaboration between Aaron Cross and Jason Bourne, and it looks like Jeremy Renner is interested in working with Matt Damon on 'Bourne 5' as well.

"Yeah, I mean in two seconds. I love that world. I love the character," Renner said. "If they want to do that, I'm in. There's no 'no' coming from this direction. I don't pull the strings on that."

But will he be able to work on 'Bourne 5' without any rest?

"No, the body will be able to handle that," Jeremy Renner said with a laugh.

'Bourne 5' will also see the return of Julia Stiles and the introduction of 'Ex-Machina' star Alicia Vikander and Tommy Lee Jones. The film is scheduled for release next year.

'Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation' premiered on July 31 and is currently in theaters worldwide.
