Jeremy Renner to narrate History's 'World Wars' series

Jeremy Renner has been chosen to narrate History's series of the World Wars at a three-night, six-hour event that will feature interviews with Colin Powell, John Major, John McCain and more.

The two-time Oscar nominee asserted that the stories that came out of the World Wars were heroic, horrifying and everything in between, and he was ecstatic to lend his voice to History and assist to tell those stories in a very unusual way, the Hollywood Reporter reported.

Russell McCarroll, Paul Cabana and Christian Murphy will executively produce for History.

The series will look at the three decades of devastating wars and the men who held the fate of humankind in their hands.
