Jeremy Renner to Join the Cast of Paul Thomas Anderson’s Religious Movie?

Add another excellent ingredient to the mix of Paul Thomas Anderson’s next film, a 1950s-set religious drama starring Philip Seymour Hoffman. Deadline confirms the long-rumored idea that the recently Oscar-nominated Jeremy Renner (”The Hurt Locker”) is “circling” the prominent role of a young drifter taken under the wing of Hoffman’s religious leader, who calls himself The Master.

Never even heard of it? Sadly, you’re not alone.

The Worst Irish Accents in the History of Cinema

His wife, Nicole Kidman, escaped reasonably unscathed, but the line “You’re a corker, Shannon” will always inspire more sniggers than swoons.
