Jeremy Renner addresses ex-wife's abuse allegations: ‘It's clickbait, and it hurts my feelings'
In a candid new interview with The Guardian, actor Jeremy Renner has addressed the serious allegations made against him by ex-wife Sonni Pacheco during their 2019 divorce and custody proceedings. The 'Hawkeye' and 'Avengers' star said he was falsely accused and described the experience as both painful and dehumanising. 'Being accused of things you've not done, right? That doesn't feel good to anybody,' Renner said, referring to Pacheco's past claims that he had allegedly threatened to kill her and himself. 'It certainly doesn't feel good when you're a celebrity and it's known to everybody.' Pacheco, a Canadian model, was married to Renner for ten months before filing for divorce in December 2014. During the custody dispute over their daughter Ava, now 12, Pacheco alleged that Renner once put a gun in his mouth, fired into the ceiling while their daughter was in the house, and left drugs within reach of the child. Renner denied all allegations at the time. In his recent interview, Renner described the media's coverage of these claims as exploitative and damaging: 'It's all the salaciousness that happens out there. It's clickbait, and it hurts my feelings and it dehumanises people.' While Pacheco reportedly sought sole custody of their daughter, the former couple currently share joint custody. Asked if he ever feared losing custody, Renner dismissed the idea: 'That's just lawyers talking. That's lawyers arguing. The custody was easy.' He went on to say that their co-parenting dynamic has since improved: 'Her mum and I get along very well, and we're in each other's lives. It's lovely.' Despite their turbulent history, Renner now prefers to keep their relationship private. 'It's no one's business,' he stated firmly. On the work front, Jeremy was last seen in 'Mayor of Kingston'. He will next be seen in a pivotal role in 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery'. The film will be the third film in the Knives Out franchise, led by Daniel Craig's Benoit Blanc. The film will also feature Josh O'Connor, Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis, Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Cailee Spaeny, Daryl McCormack, and Thomas Haden Church. Directed by Rian Johnson, the film will release on December 12, 2025, on Netflix.

Scarlett Johansson describes the challenges of shooting 'Jurassic World Rebirth'
Scarlett Johansson can now say she's an official star of the 'Jurassic Park' franchise, an accomplishment that's been 30 years in the making. 'It was a childhood dream of mine to be in this movie,' the actor told Craig Melvin during a recent segment on "TODAY." 'I've been trying to get in the 'Jurassic' universe for three decades.' In the latest installment of the series, ' Jurassic World Rebirth,' Johansson plays Zora Bennett, a mercenary leading a team of operatives on a secret mission to track down dinosaur DNA. The hitch? It's on a forbidden island in the middle of the ocean and the inhabitants are, well, positively prehistoric. 'I saw the movie 'Jurassic Park' when I was 10 years old in the theater and it was so impactful,' Johansson said. 'Like the entire audience, I was completely transfixed, mesmerized, carried away, terrified, all of that stuff, and it's part of the formative part of my childhood.' How did she finally land the gig? 'It turns out that if you harass Frank Marshall enough, you could get a job,' she joked, referring to one of the film's producers. Clocking in at two hours and 14 minutes, 'Jurassic World Rebirth' is an action-packed, dino-filled romp that also stars Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Mahershala Ali, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Ed Skrein, David Iacono and Luna Blaise as a mismatched crew of castaways fighting for survival on the tropical island. To ensure the movie's authenticity, Johansson says, the cast and crew filmed at various exotic locations around the world, including Malta and Thailand. 'The environment was authentic and so it felt that we were in the middle of the jungle because we were in the middle of the jungle,' she tells in an interview. According to the 'Avengers' actor, working in the jungle didn't come without its fair share of perils, including uninvited guests on the set. 'You'd be making coffee at the coffee table and then two minutes later (someone would say), 'You know what they just found at the coffee table? They just got a scorpion.' And you're like, 'What!?' Like, I was just making myself a coffee right there,' says Johansson. 'We had a venomous pit crew. Isn't that crazy?' Filming ' Jurassic World Rebirth ' also required Johansson to scale a steep rock wall. Granted, it was built on a set, but according to Johansson, it was still 'pretty high up.' Even so, Johansson, 40, says she wasn't daunted given the rigging crew had her back (literally) and that she'd been trained on a rock-climbing wall ahead of shooting the scenes. 'The heights is not, like, my greatest phobia,' she tells 'My greatest phobia is cockroaches, and there were plenty of those, too — but not on the abseiling wall.' Instead, Johansson likely encountered them while shooting in Thailand's rainforests. 'Thailand had some pretty serious creature critters,' she says. It begs the question: Were there days during the making of 'Jurassic World Rebirth' when she wished she was on a traditional film set instead of the remote reaches of the world? 'Yes, all of the days. Every one of them,' she joked while talking with Craig on "TODAY." 'I'm from New York. I've got to say I'm a city girl. ... It is amazing to shoot in the majestic settings that we were in,' she explained. But it didn't come without the obvious drawbacks. 'We did shoot during the monsoon season,' Johansson added. 'I would say not as ideal as in the not-monsoon season. I watched Mahershala Ali melt like a human candle.'
