Hollywood star Jeremy Renner has thanked fans for their “kind words” in an Instagram post from his hospital bed two days after he was seriously injured in an accident near his US home.
The 51-year-old Marvel actor said he was “too messed up to type” as he shared a picture with his 18.3 million followers. He wrote: “Thank you all for your kind words.
"I’m too messed up now to type. But I send love to you all."
Renner was airlifted to hospital on Sunday after suffering “blunt chest trauma and orthopaedic injuries” in an accident near the Mount Rose Highway, which links Lake Tahoe and south Reno, straddling the Nevada-California border. At a press conference on Tuesday, Washoe County Sheriff Darin Balaam said Renner was helping a family member, whose vehicle had become stuck in heavy snow, when the incident occurred.
Sheriff Balaam said the Sheriff’s office had received a call at 8.55am following reports of a crash involving a SnowCat plowing machine and a civilian. He added that there was no signs of “any foul play” and that the incident had been a “tragic accident”.
“Based on our investigation, Mr Renner’s personal vehicle, which was being driven by a family member, had become stuck in the snow near his home,” Sheriff Balaam told the news conference. “Mr Renner went to retrieve his… SnowCat, an extremely large piece of snow removal equipment, weighing at least 14,330 pounds, in an effort to get his vehicle moving.”
Sheriff Balaam said that after successfully freeing his vehicle, Renner had got out to speak with the family member when the SnowCat had begun to roll. Renner had attempted to get back into the machine, at which point he was run over, he added.

The reductive take on Taylor Sheridan-made media— and perhaps particularly, the gritty and rugged Paramount+ series “Mayor Of Kingstown” (co-created with Hugh Dillon, one of the series co-stars)— is that it’s macho, maybe even toxically masculine; narratives about aggressive men that feel they must defend their fiefdoms, no matter the size, no matter the cost. In that sense, Sheridan’s work feels so innately American, and maybe that’s why he gets labeled as a Red State creator so often, given so many of his gruff characters seem to have a “don’t tread on me” philosophy of life (think the beautiful loser criminals of “Hell or Highwater”).
