Jeremy Renner has revealed that he has only seen his Avengers co-star Robert Downey Jr "maybe twice".

The Hurt Locker actor will play Hawkeye in the upcoming superhero movie, which will also see Robert Downey Jr returning as Iron Man.

However, due to the amount of characters in the project, the pair have yet to share a scene together, with the actor explaining that most of his scenes are with Scarlett Johansson, who will reprise her role of Black Widow.

"I think I've maybe seen him twice," Renner told WENN. "It's weird because here is this big ensemble movie yet we don't really get to work together. Most of my scenes are with Scarlett Johansson, which is great, but we're really hoping we all get to team up as filming goes on."

Samuel L Jackson, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans and Mark Ruffalo will also star in the ensemble action film, which will land in cinemas on May 4, 2012.

Jeremy Renner will portray the lead character in the upcoming action film The Bourne Legacy. He is also rumoured to be developing a Steve McQueen biopic.
