He recently appeared on the Happy Sad Confused podcast where he revealed the reason for not joining the franchise back. While talking about his return, he told the host Josh Horowitz returning to the franchise means staying away from his daughter for a long.
Renner mentioned that he was supposed to do more work with them as he loved those guys and Tom. He also stated that he loves his character and that requires a lot of time away as it’s all in London. “I had to go be a dad. It just wasn’t gonna work out then. Maybe now that my daughter is older that could happen. I’d always jump into a Mission: Impossible anytime and back into Brandt. It’s great,” Jeremy said.
