Does anyone else have this problem...?

I can’t watch Jeremy Renner in his new shows because he reminds me of Rittenhouse…

which was the 2003 action flick "SWAT" with Sam Jackson, LL Cool J, Colin Ferrell, et al.

He played a dirty/mercenary cop in that one, and first impressions yadda yadda, so now I never quite buy him as a truly good good guy. Not that he's supposed to be a truly good good guy in the Marvel shit (or Bourne or whatever), but I recognize that there's baggage not of their own narrative/creation in my mind as I watch, and it is distracting.

Stupid brain, with its memories and such, getting in the way of current moving picture pablum.
