- He had a role in every play of stage director Didier Flamand from 1977 to 1981, and then had the lead role in Flamand's first short movie _Vis, La (1993)_.
- Plays Bezu Fache in The Da Vinci Code (2006). Before that film was made, Harvey Keitel played a similar role in National Treasure (2004), which also deals with historical secrets being kept by ancient societies, including the Knights Templar. Keitel also played The Cleaner in Point of No Return (1993), which was a remake of Nikita (1990), in which Reno played the Cleaner.
- Due to his tall, hulking frame, he most played villainous brutes early on in his career. Thanks to his skills as an actor, he has broken away from this stereotype and has played everything from romantic-comedy leads to action heroes.
- Turned down the role of Agent Smith in the The Matrix (1999) to do Godzilla (1998)
- Mentioned by name in song "Cosmopolitan" by Vincent Delerm.
