“Thank you all so much for your kind words.
I'm too knackered right now to write, but I'm sending love to you all."
With this brief message Jeremy Renner (Modesto, California, 51 years old) wanted to reassure his followers, who since January 1 have been worried about his condition after he suffered an accident with his snowplow.
Few words but they have reassured many, especially since he has also accompanied them with a selfie that has been taken from the Nevada hospital bed where he remains hospitalized.
The American actor, known for playing the superhero Hawkeye in various Marvel blockbusters, was hit by his own snowplow on Sunday morning, January 1, while trying to get into the driver's seat of the gigantic six-ton vehicle.
Renner sustained serious injuries as he was attempting to gain access to the vehicle to stop the PistenBully machine—a truck-sized tracked vehicle designed to remove snow—which had started rolling forward after the actor used it to help free the vehicle of a family member who had been stranded at his home in Reno, Nevada (USA) from the heavy snowfall.
