75% Rennervations: Season 1 (2023)

Description: An original four-part series that embraces Jeremy Renner’s lifelong passion to give back to communities around the world by reimagining unique purpose-built vehicles to meet a community’s needs. Every build has a purpose. Behind the big screen, Renner is a construction veteran with a passion for purchasing and re-imagining huge vehicles with the help of his connections in the worldwide fabricator culture. With his best friend and business partner, Rory Millikin, and an all-star build crew, Renner travels the globe to reimagine decommissioned vehicles and rebuild them to serve a new purpose, such as turning a tour bus into a mobile music studio, a delivery truck into a mobile water treatment facility, a shuttle bus into a mobile recreation center, and a city bus into a mobile dance studio. Along the way, Renner teams up with actor and producer Anthony Mackie, actress and entrepreneur Vanessa Hudgens, actor and producer Anil Kapoor, and singer and songwriter Sebastián Yatra, who all share Renner’s enthusiasm and join him to deliver the finished vehicles to each organization.

Premiere Date: Wednesday, April 12
