Earlier this month, the actor was injured while ploughing snow at his house in Nevada's Reno on New Year's Day. He was airlifted to the hospital and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Mr Renner suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopaedic injuries and underwent two surgeries.
While at the hospital, the actor actively shared updates on his health on his social media accounts. On January 3, the actor updated his fans about his condition by posting a hospital bed selfie on Instagram and thanking well-wishers for their support.
Four days later, he posted another picture of himself along with the medical staff on his birthday. He also posted a video from what he described as "A "not no great" ICU DAY, turned to amazing spa day."
The 'Marvel' actor was attempting to help remove a family member's car from being stuck in the snow when the actor's snow plough ended up running him over and critically injuring him. The snow plough used by the actor was a PistenBully or Sno-Cat, a massive piece of snow removal equipment weighing at least 14,330 pounds.
The 51-year-old has played 'Hawkeye', a member of Marvel's Avengers superheroes team, in several movies and a television series. Mr Renner has also twice been nominated for an Oscar, for his role in 'The Hurt Locker' and 'The Town'.
