In Jeremy Renner’s first interview since the bloody incident, he almost came to tears when describing his near death experience earlier this year.
In a trailer for “Jeremy Renner: The Diane Sawyer Interview — A Story of Terror, Survival and Triumph,” airing April 6 at 10 p.m. ET on ABC, the “Avengers” star reflects on the January accident, during which he was run over by his 7-ton snowcat snowplow machine while trying to protect his nephew.
On New Years Day, Jeremy Renner was doing some house chores like most at his Lake Tahoe Nevada home. He’d been trying to tow his nephew’s car with his Snowcat when it sped it away.
With quick thinking the Dahmer actor jumped in front of it to save his nephew and nearly died. And he says during the interview with Diane Sawyer that he’d do it all over again for his nephew. This horrific accident left Renner with 30 broken bones. But he seems to be taking pretty good care of himself. Despite the catastrophe, the “Hawkeye” actor share a video on Sunday of himself walking on a treadmill.
“Now is the time for my body to rest and recover from my will, he captioned a post on March 26 to his Instagram Stories.
