Jeremy Renner Says Robert Downey Jr. Cheered Him Up During Recovery
HuffPost
Renner was crushed by a snow plow last year while trying to pull his nephew's truck out of the snow.
Jeremy Renner still recalls being cheered up by one of his fellow “Avengers” after a serious accident landed him in the ICU.
The Marvel star was crushed by a snow plow on New Year’s Day in 2023, breaking at least 30 bones in the process. Renner said Saturday that laughter was the best medicine — especially when given by none other than Robert Downey Jr.
“We ended up having really great chats on FaceTime, like we were dating or something,” he told People on Saturday, adding: “He’s like, ‘Dude, the most important thing is you look good. I don’t care how you feel, as long as you look good that’s all that matters.’”
Downey urged him to recover so he could resume filming the Paramount+ series “Mayor of Kingstown.” “He’s like, ‘You’ve got to get back to do Mayor, because we need to see what happens,’” Renner said. “His ways are very heartwarming.”
The “Hawkeye” star became a real-life superhero after saving his relative from a Pistenbully snowcat that wouldn’t stop moving. Renner, who used the vehicle to pull his nephew’s truck out of the snow, reportedly tried to stop the plow when it started sliding downhill.
