This is the first time the Marvel actor has commented since his accident, which happened on January 1st. Renner’s publicist provided a few more details about the accident, stating that the actor was “near his Nevada home, clearing driveways prior to the incident” (CNN).

Renner was apparently clearing his driveway so that some family members could leave after they’d been together for the holidays. Authorities received a 911 call “reporting a crash involving a snowcat, a device used to remove snow, and a pedestrian on Mount Rose Highway.” The sheriff’s department arrived at 9:30AM PT, and emergency medical services were there to provide aid.

Reports show that Renner had been run over by the snowcat after it started to roll away while he wasn’t inside, and he was injured as he tried to get back into the vehicle. The actor has undergone 2 surgeries and is now recovering in the ICU.

Renner’s publicist said, “Jeremy is making positive progress and is awake, talking and in good spirits. He remains in ICU in critical but stable condition. He is overwhelmed by the showing of love and support. The family asks for your continued thoughts while he heals with his close loved ones.”
