AVENGERS Co-Star Mark Ruffalo Encourages Fans to Pray for Jeremy Renner After Accident
By Movieguide® Staff
Fellow Marvel actor Mark Ruffalo called on fans to pray for his friend and co-star Jeremy Renner after a snow plow accident sent the actor to the hospital.
“Prayers up for our brother @jeremyrenner on a full and speedy recovery,” Ruffalo, 55, wrote on Instagram.
Ruffalo and Renner appeared in three AVENGERS movies, as the Hulk and Hawkeye respectively.
According to reports, Renner had surgery to treat several critical injuries.
“We can confirm that Jeremy has suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries and has undergone surgery today, Jan. 2, 2023. He has returned from surgery and remains in the intensive care unit in critical but stable condition,” a representative said of the accident.
“Jeremy’s family would like to express their gratitude to the incredible doctors and nurses looking after him, Truckee Meadows Fire and Rescue, Washoe County Sheriff, Reno City Mayor Hillary Schieve and the Carano and Murdock families,” Renner’s rep added. “They are also tremendously overwhelmed and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support from his fans.”
Local police said that they airlifted the MCU star to a hospital on New Year’s Day.
“At approximately 9:00 am on January 1, 2023, the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office responded to a traumatic injury in the area of Mt. Rose Highway in Reno, Nevada,” a statement read. “Upon arrival, Deputies coordinated with Truckee Meadows Fire Protection District and REMSA Health to arrange for medical transport of Mr. Jeremy Renner via care flight to a local area hospital.”
