Jeremy Renner had an almost fatal accident in January 2023, when he was struck by a 14,000 pound snowcat plow and suffered several serious injuries. Renner was injured while trying to save his nephew Alex, 27 at the time, to be hit by the plow.
In a new interview, he revealed how his nephew had faced the trauma to see the star Marvel injured.
“”[Alex] Read the book. In fact, we listened to the book together, which was quite intense, but we never really tried to push this under anything, “said Renner to People.
“If I am better, then he will be better. I put images in the head of this child, he cannot see, so I will do everything I can to get better. So I heal him, he heals me. It is a beautiful thing,” he added.
Sharing how he approaches the incident now, he said: “I don’t talk about it. It’s part of my life every day, and it’s always a wonderful recall of the strength of the human mind and the fragile of the body and the way it is badass in recovery.”
“I am not haunted by the incident – not too often anyway – by images, sounds”, the Hawkeye Actor said. “But I remember my new reality, and it’s wonderfully positive. I am not dead.”
