Jeremy Renner has returned home from the hospital more than two weeks after his snow plow accident.
The Hawkeye star, 52, was airlifted to hospital with serious injuries on January 1 after he was accidentally run over by his own machine – while trying to help a stranded family member.
He was ‘crushed’ by the vehicle and had been recovering at the Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno, Nevada, sharing health updates from his hospital bed.
Taking to Twitter on Monday, he revealed that he was able to return home and watch the season two premiere of Mayor of Kingstown – in which he stars in the lead role – surrounded by his loved ones.
Responding to a tweet from the program’s official account, he penned: Outside my brain fog in recovery, I was very excited to watch episode 201 with my family at home.’
Followers were delighted by the news, and rushed to wish the Marvel icon a speedy recovery.
‘Fantastic news. you are at home, released from hospital then,’ a fan said.
‘This Tweet is just so sweet and humble rarely do you see a star share casual moments like this. Get well soon.’
‘Of course you were, it was positively amazing, being at home with the most precious people to us is where we always want to experience our accomplishments,’ another agreed.
‘We are still praying for you everyday and will continue to do so. Much Love to you and your family.’
‘Glad you’re doing better Jeremy. It was a blow to so many when we found out you got hurt,’ one posted.

Jeremy was severely injured after his seven-ton plow crushed him at his home near Lake Tahoe, on New Year’s Day.
It was later announced by Washoe County Sheriff Darin Balaam that he was assisting a family member as they attempted to free a vehicle that had been stuck in the snow.
