Jeremy Renner: I almost didn't want to go back into acting

Jeremy Renner reveals he almost gave up acting after his 2023 snowplow accident, but is grateful to return to showbiz and focus on recovery.

"I almost didn't want to go back into acting because I had to focus so much on real life. - Jeremy Renner"

Los Angeles, April 28

Hollywood star Jeremy Renner says he almost gave up acting after his snowplough accident as he had to "focus" so much on "real life".

Renner suffered over 30 broken bones, a lacerated liver and a collapsed lung in January 2023 when he was run over by his Snocat. However, Renner is happy that he continued his career in showbiz.

He told Fox News Digital, "I mean, I'll be in recovery for the rest of my life. I think it goes beyond acting. I almost didn't want to go back into acting because I had to focus so much on real life. Nonfiction kind of stuff. To go into fiction was a little difficult, but I'm glad I'm back doing it."

The 55-year-old actor has tried to simplify his life since the accident, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

He explained: "Be with my family, get better every day and do acts of service and give to others as much and best as I can. And that's how I choose to live my life from moving forward since the accident."

Renner is open to trying new treatments for his ongoing medical issues, and is currently focusing on red light treatments and oxygen therapy.

He said: "There are a lot of great things we're progressing in it. Peptide therapies are really great for hormone replacement as we get older. You don't have to be in an accident to do any of the things I'm doing. These are just life stuff as we age, but those are also very, very key to my recovery from tissue damage. 38 broken bones, all that type of stuff.

"And also, a positive mindset. These are things that I enjoy and I have to enjoy them because I'll be doing them as I breathe and as I move around through life."

True courage. But I wish Hollywood actors didn't make everything so dramatic. He survived, he's recovering—good. The real heroes are our jawans at the border who deal with way worse every day without any oxygen therapy. 🤷‍♀️

Glad he's back. But honestly? The whole "I almost didn't want to go back to acting" thing is overhyped. He's a celebrity with resources. What about the common man who breaks a leg and can't afford treatment? That's real life. Still, respect for his recovery.

Positive mindset is key, yaar. My grandfather always said "mann ki shakti" is everything. Good to see a Hollywood star also believe in that. Red light therapy? Peptides? Sounds like we need more research in India on these alternative treatments.

The way he talks about family and acts of service—that's very Indian at heart. We believe in seva. But 38 broken bones? Isiliye I tell my kids to be careful in winter. Hope he fully recovers. 🙏

Respect for his resilience. But let's be real—this is a billionaire actor's problem. Most Indians don't have the luxury of "almost giving up." We have to work through anything. Still, good to see him value family time. That's something we all need more of.
