Jeremy Renner, of Marvel fame, has been accused of threatening to “call ICE” after a female confronted him about alleged misconduct.
Chinese filmmaker Yi Zhou, 37, told the Daily Mail she was dating the 54-year-old Hawkeye actor last month. She also accused him of sending “unsolicited pornographic images of himself” in a series of Instagram posts Monday.
Zhou and Renner, per the report, have finished two projects in the last year together.
Zhou claimed the actor introduced himself over direct message and WhatsApp with the photos in June 2025.
Per the Daily Mail, the filmmaker provided a screenshot of her alleged WhatsApp texts with Renner, including a short pornographic video clip Renner allegedly texted her in June.
The filmmaker told the Mail that Renner became so “angry” after getting drunk during a meeting about the documentary, Chronicles Of Disney, at his home in Reno, Nevada, that she feared for her life.
“I was discussing about the doc logistics, then he drank a bottle of wine alone and got angry and angry yelling for two hours,” Zhou said. “I had to lock myself in a room to be safe praying he would not come into the room at night as he was really angry. I did not say a word, I was so scared for my life.”
In her Instagram posts, Zhou claimed that Renner threatened to call immigration once she confronted him about his behavior.
“When I called him out privately about his past misconduct and asked him to behave properly, to respect me as a woman and as a filmmaker, he threatened to call immigration/ICE on me, an act that deeply shocked and frightened me,” she posted.
