Jeremy Renner versus Josh Holloway: which of the ‘MI4’ boys would you rather?

Last week, my mom called me and said, “I had forgotten that your boyfriend was in the new Mission: Impossible movie!” To which I replied, “Which boyfriend?” Because I have two boyfriends in MI4, and I love them both in different ways, and I kind of love that Tom Cruise and I have the same taste in men (ha!). Jeremy Renner is the hot, weird, amazing little guy, the pocket rocket with the bedroom eyes who… well, I just know he would rock my world. My other boyfriend, Josh Holloway, would also rock my world. So how is Josh different? He’s taller. He has a Southern accent. He’s more traditionally handsome. That being said, I think Renner is the better actor.

So… who would you choose if it came down to going home with Renner or going home with Josh? Yes, Josh is married, but in these little “What if…?” games, we can pretend that he’s not. I actually think that if you were looking for a relationship, you should choose Josh. He seems like the commitment type. If you were just looking for a filthy, enjoyable hookup, go with Jeremy. So… I would choose both. A little from Column A, a little from column B. Jeremy for the hookup, Josh to marry/make babies with.

Anyway, yeah… these are photos from the NYC premiere of Mission: Impossible 4 last night. I could eat Jeremy with a spoon, and Josh looks sexy and dashing as always (although I‘m not loving the salt-and-pepper beard or the length of his hair). I’m also throwing in a photo of Paula Patton in her Emilio Pucci dress, which I really dislike.

PS… Jeremy hasn’t done much to promote MI4, but there is a new interview with him in USA Today – go here to see.

    Sawyer! Er, um, I mean Josh Holloway is so much sexier. Rawr!!!

    • Turtle Dove says:

      2nd.

      Josh is so sexy, and I’m thrilled that he’s got a career post Lost (still miss that show).

  2. hmm says:

    Holloway has a blink and miss part and what the hell was Renner dong in that movie. Two losers.

  3. lisa says:

    JOSH… is hot, but not sure why he can’t break out. Still doing the “hot guy” stuff. He has great potential.

    Jeremey is average to me. Great actor but not hot to me. I don’t think the women that gush about him would even look at him if he was an average guy on the street. Funny how women are when a guy is an actor.

    • Nancy says:

      This.

      Very true. If Jeremy was not well known or was not playing these tough studs in films no one would give him a second look. They love him for superficial reasons.

      Although I personally think he’s sexy even if he were just a construction worker. Not sure I could be around all the cigarette smoking though, he allegedly smokes like a chimney. Not sexy and can’t breathe.

      • Sophie says:

        Renner’s badass on-screen persona is definitely what makes him hot. I like to imagine that its a reflection of his real life personality (although thats probably not the case).

        Wouldn’t it be more superficial to judge on his appearance alone?

  4. NM9005 says:

    I love Paula’s dress! She’s gorgeous, the dress is gorgeous, the shoes… I dislike the stringy things though.

    Renner is too short and Holloway looks too clean cut (a dapper chap he is!). The only one I would choose in this post is Paula!

    • Elizabeth says:

      I love the dress but I think her boobs are going to be sore after she made them defy gravity like that. They may be afraid of heights after this.

    • duchessofhazard says:

      I love the dress, I think the shoes let it down, though. Some boots in a dark colour (not black) would have given it an edge and much less twee.

      Love the dress, need the body for it.

  5. carmell0000 says:

    Oh my god! Sawyer is back, I missed you! Smoking hot!!!!

  6. Victoria says:

    I honestly don’t see why people are falling over Josh’s looks. He is so fucking basic in that department. it’s everything else that makes him sexy. I have only seen one episode of Lost and think that shit was overrated as well, bu I know he and Evangeline Lily were supposed to have great chemistry.

    I have loved Jeremy Renner since Neo Ned, which is a great indie film. The concept was really interesting, if not far-fetched. He has a sexiness about him.

    I guess Renner because as pointed it out, it looks like he knows what he’s doing in and out of the bedroom. And sometimes a girl just wants to be a dirty slut, at least in her fantasies. LOL.

  7. Angela says:

    I like them both, but Josh Holloway would be my 1st pick. Not sure I like his beard, though.

  8. Shay Kay says:

    Sawyer.Don’t get Renner at all.
    Slow southern charm on a classically handsome man is never a bad thing.

  9. LeeLoo says:

    Neither. Where’s Simon Pegg? He should totally be apart of this. What’s with Paula’s fugly shag carpet dress?

  10. Toot says:

    Give me Josh, he was hot and dirty as Sawyer. Jeremy probably doesn’t like woman.

  11. lisa says:

    I have to give him a prop.

    Jeremy’s suit is fitted perfectly. Love when a man knows how to wear a suit.

  12. Silk Spectre says:

    Renner 4 sure!!!

    They both were on Jimmy Kimmel to promote MI4. Jeremy’s boyish charm makes me totally weak in the knees. While Josh comes across really boring – nope, wouldn’t hit that.

  13. Lara says:

    Of course, Jeremy Renner all the way!Paula Patton is a stunner, very natural and gorgeous!

  14. The Original Mia says:

    Both! Jeremy for hot, dirty, no commitment sex and Josh for hot, dirty, commitment sex & marriage.

  15. Ellie says:

    Renner all the way. There’s no question about it.

  16. snapnhiss says:

    I’ve liked Renner since “28 Weeks Later” but he looks like he’d absolutely reek of cigarette smoke.

  17. rentho says:

    both, its been awhile….lol

  18. Esmom says:

    Definitely Josh, loved me some Sawyer. I prefer him clean-shaven, although the heavy stubble is apparently still his thing.

    Glad to see he’s still working, I had no idea he was in this film. Somehow I think he will always be Sawyer no matter how hard he tries to move on.

  19. luisa says:

    meh……

    all i want is fassbender!

  20. sundaygal says:

    Sawyer FTW!

  21. Nicole says:

    Neither. Simon Pegg, please!

  22. Happy21 says:

    Both of them at the same time please 😉

  23. Amy says:

    I like oddballs, so I’ve always harbored a little crush on Renner. But Josh Holloway had me (utterly and completely) at the reading glasses scene on “Lost.” So I would choose him…first. He is a beautiful, beautiful man.

  24. Eve says:

    After someone here on Celebitchy (forgot the poster’s moniker, sorry) said Renner looked like a pug, that’s the only thing I can think about whenever I see his face.

  25. the original bellaluna says:

    Josh, panties down! 😀

  26. Cerulean says:

    Renner for dirty wrong. I’ll pass on the other dude.

  27. Trek Girl says:

    Jeremy Renner and Simon Pegg, all the way.

    Josh Holloway is “meh”, to say the least. He doesn’t appeal to me at all.

  28. oh dear says:

    sawyer any day! anytime.. lol

  29. kimberly says:

    give me a josh face over a fat pug face any day.

  30. Celebitchy says:

    I’m partial to Holloway since I like tall guys. That mess of a dress is Pucci?!

  31. mandyfan says:

    OMG Josh Holloway. And I have to disagree…I LOVE the salt and pepper thing he has going on with his beard. So… distinguished. But still scruffy and sexy. And tall. And that accent. And…is it getting hot in here or is it just me?

  32. Jules says:

    Both hot. Josh more traditionally, ofcourse. But you can just tell that Renner knows what he is doing and I bet he does it well.

  33. Nan says:

    Josh who?

    Don’t know him.

    Seems kind of bland.

  34. Laura says:

    Josh Holloway, no doubt. Jeremy Renner does NOTHING for me, I honestly don’t see it :/

  35. Moe says:

    OMG. Josh! Yum. Double Yum.

  36. salamanca says:

    Jeremy has too much makeup.

  37. Ele says:

    Jeremy ! Without any doubt, is the kind of man that I like, and if he was one of my co-worker instead than an actor, well I would have a crush on him equally. I used to like guys uglier than him that weren’t celebrities.
