Jeremy Renner who essays the role of Hawkeye in Marvel films recently revealed a secret that most MCU fans are not aware of - Robert Downey Jr was apparently jealous of Chris Hemsworth when they worked on the sets of The Avengers together.

Twitter

Renner revealed that this was the first time that he and Downey Jr were working with Hemsworth. When he came to the sets, he was the tallest and the most charming man too. This prompted Robet Downey Jr to say, " We gotta take him out. This guy¡¯s too good-looking. He¡¯s too tall, he¡¯s too charming, f¡ª this guy."

Of course, he was joking.

Jeremy Renner added, "Yeah, he¡¯s amazing, but we didn¡¯t know of him, right? On the first day, we¡¯re all parading around in our costumes. So it looks like it¡¯s Halloween. We¡¯re excited, but equally feeling ridiculous. I feel like we all knew each other somehow, someway, except we didn¡¯t know this Hemsworth guy, because he comes from Australia. And he¡¯s the tallest, he¡¯s the most good-looking¡­ Downey was like, ¡®We gotta break his knee."

Did you know Robert Downey Jr was once willing to quit Marvel over remuneration of his fellow cast members?

To add some perspective, in 2013, Deadline had published a report that revealed the salaries of the cast. Robert Downey Jr, who reportedly earned around $70 million for the first Avengers movie, got $50M for this one. However, other cast members were only getting $200,000.

When the cast members demanded a better pay, Marvel threatened to sue or recast them all. Reporter Nikke Finke said, "That prompted a few cast members to respond, ¡®Go ahead.¡¯"

Finke continued, ¡°I¡¯ve learned the Avengers cast are becoming united behind Robert Downey Jr who is seen as the ¡®leader¡¯ ¨C like ¡®a big brother¡¯ in the words of one rep ¨C for all the younger actors in the ensemble.¡±

It is said that Chris Hemsworth wasn't keen on returning after Thor 2 because of this. Even Scarlett Johansson had told that she won't cut her quote.

Another insider noted, "He¡¯s the only guy with real power in this situation. and b*lls of steel, too. He¡¯s already sent a message that he¡¯s not going to work for a place where they treat his colleagues like sh*t.¡±
