Movie star Jeremy Renner, known for his role as Hawkeye in several Marvel blockbusters, is in critical but stable condition after suffering an accident with a snowplow, his representative told US media on Sunday.
“We can confirm that Jeremy is in critical but stable condition…after being involved in an accident while clearing snow,” Renner’s representative told The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline.
Renner was clearing snow when he suffered serious injuries, added the source, who did not specify where the accident occurred.
“He is receiving excellent care and his family is with him,” the representative added.
Renner, 51, has been nominated for two Oscars for his roles in “The Hurt Locker” (“Living on the edge” or “In hostile land”) and “The Town” (“City of thieves” or “Dangerous attraction” ).
He also played the role of Clint Barton, the Hawkeye superhero, in several Marvel movies and a recent miniseries.
Jeremy Renner owns property near Mt Rose-Ski Tahoe, an area near Reno, Nevada, that has been hit by winter storms, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
He recently posted on social media about severe weather conditions in the Lake Tahoe area, which borders California and Nevada and is a world-famous ski destination.
On December 13, Renner tweeted a photo of a car engulfed in snow with the caption “Lake Tahoe snowfall is no joke.”
