Jeremy Renner to star in board game movie Battleship

The Hollywood Reporter have posted a nice little article revolving around this year’s Oscar nominees and in it was a nice little section on Jeremy Renner, which goes into how he likes to restore Hollywood homes as well as be a superb actor. The Hurt Locker star has a few projects lined up including Battleship, based on the popular Hasbro game, which already has a release date set for May 25, 2012.

Renner is in talks with Universal and director Peter Berg about taking the lead role in “Battleship.” He’s also had no fewer than five meetings to star in another project, which he declines to reveal. Both films are expected to shoot in the summer, so Renner will be choosing between the two.

But first he’ll squeeze in indie “Raven,” a period thriller with Ewan McGregor in talks to co-star. “(‘Locker’ has) allowed me to exhale and go, ‘OK, now I can really start,'” Renner says. “Maybe it’s a form of arrival, maybe it’s a type of beginning.”
