Jeremy Renner, the 53-year-old actor best known for his role as Hawkeye in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has opened up about the profound impact that his snowplough accident has had on his life. In January last year, Renner suffered a near-fatal incident near his Nevada home, spending two weeks in hospital with critical injuries and breaking more than 30 bones.
This brush with death has left him feeling more “sensitive” and less “callous” than before. Renner shared with People magazine, “I’ve never been bitter, but always maybe a little more callous, a little bit more tough. And I just think those calluses are just scraped off me at this point. Literally, I feel pretty open and wonderfully sensitive and youthful.”
The actor credited his loved ones, including his 10-year-old daughter Ava, for driving his recovery and giving him something “to live for”. He reflected on the support he received, stating, “Geez, the love and support I got from people, man. I just didn’t realize that many people [cared] about me that much.”
Renner’s journey to recovery has been a challenging one, both physically and emotionally. However, he expressed gratitude for the support he has received and the opportunity to return to work. Renner stars in a new Super Bowl advert for Silk alongside his daughter, acknowledging that getting back to work has given him a “beacon of hope”.
As he continues his path to recovery, Renner’s resilience and determination serve as an inspiration to many. His willingness to share his experience and the impact it has had on his life is a reminder of the strength that can be found in vulnerability and the power of love and support in difficult times.
