His attitude and words were inspiring! I'm glad he's healing well.

[@sahorigo4487]

I wish I could have Jeremy as my dad. That’s what so many people might’ve thought about. Glad to see him again and he is more inspiring, powerful and humble than ever. That makes us proud to be his fans!!

[@kimpritchard4322]

Work saved me when my mother died. It was a reminder that my life was continuing on no matter how devastated I was. In fact, work was the only escape I had. Everything at home reminded me of Mom. Nothing at work did. Jeremy, I'm a Nobody to you but I've always called you my favorite Avenger. Best wishes in your future. You are multitalented!

[@shellyrobinson9438]

Jeremy you are a rockstar! Keep healing!

[@vickikenton5439]

I’m a fan of Jeremy’s work, and an even bigger fan of the persona he created in his personal life. The dad he is. The brother. The son. The cousin. I’d love to meet you in person someday. Vicki in Sacramento/Roseville.

[@cathywhite9415]

You & me both Vicki & I live close to where his accident happened up here in Reno too. I'd love to just sit & just & listen to his inspirational words for hours!!! We just love him up here!!!

[@user-mu5yu8fy3h]

Truly inspirational person hats off ❤

[@pamela8329]

Inspirational, especially when he said he'd never have a 'bad day' again.

[@eileenpritchard9154]

So glad J R has recovered he is a wonderful actor.

[@SiriusDogStar369]

It’s called enlightenment. And he did it in the toughest f*cking way any of us ever could. I’ve died twice. I can see it.

[@thoyo]

glad you're still with us! :)

[@gregwheless5171]

So glad you survived Jeremy .

[@shortchick7715]

So glad he survived and is back in business! The worst injury i've sustained was a broken ankle and was surprised at the level of pain. This guy was probably in pain 24/7 for a good while. I'm sure he still feels pain now. In my book he is a really tough guy. I hope he continues to thrive in life!

[@mariemcgee105]

Very strong determind person ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@2424rocket]

Just recently discovered the show “mayor of Kingstown“ and I can’t believe how good it is. I would put it in the same category as “breaking bad“… And that is saying a mouthful. I binge watched the entire second season over a two day period. And here is season three about to begin. Im stoked!

[@cindythomas5895]

I love him and love this show!!! What a remarkable recovery unreal !!! Prayers 🙏

[@xy6634]

This guy is blessed with all the money in the world to pay for his expensive surgeries, medications, therapy, & other healing modalities. His full recovery is a miracle!

[@yiqiu1122]

Jeremy is such an inspiration!❤

[@newsteps3876]

Great question Nate❤❤❤ love Jeremy, tough as he'll. Knew he would be back❤❤❤❤❤

[@peggyfranklin5091]

Strong admiration for you Jeremy! May you be blessed and receive a full recovery😊! Thank you for sharing your amazing journey!

[@chasehedges6775]

Jeremy Renner is awesome

[@cathywhite9415]

I have so much respect for Jeremy, he is so inspirational & encouraging. I truly feel this is his new mission in life, the path God wants him to take, to show us His ✝️ glory & His glorious miracles. God bless you & be with you Jeremy 🙏 Keep that positivity in life. You're a wonderful father to your #1 your beautiful daughter Ava ❤️

[@danyelias]

An act of of courage but also inspiration. Sounds horrific but somehow he managed to flip it and make the best of it. Very nice interview.

[@markguertin210]

Great inspiration! In the end he realized at the end of the day ,you are the best friend or not. He rocks!

[@edyann]

He looks so well! And has the face of a baby lion cub, he's adorable. Glad he survived and doing well.

[@marilouwarden7127]

Amazing. You are an inspiration.

[@marilyneavey4194]

He's amazing 👏 ❤

[@emw1816]

He crossed my mind the other day wondering how he was doing. I didn’t know he was in something new.❤️ Yay!!!

[@vsznry]

I loved him in The Town.

[@GodlikeLFC97]

Horror movies don't scare me, actors do when they play stone cold psychos like he did in The Town 😨

[@jenweigandt6903]

Amazing interview.

[@jessem7556]

Glad he is okay 😊

[@goldenseekernes4882]

Strongest avenger

[@SacredGusto]

I did not know guy in green suit played sports, but hey, even though Hawkeye got flattened by a one thousand tonne snow plow, apparently, they're all in the same league of injuries?

[@claudiamegna03]

❤You are incredible I have said it so many times you are incredible I have said it many times I know it and I will continue to say it❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@user-vx5lw5xw6k]

He is the strongest avenger

[@richwagener]

Let’s not forget, Jeremy wasn’t playing a sport when he was nearly killed. He was trying to save a life and stop an out of control industrial vehicle.

[@adeleguy909]

,,#jeremyrenner ❤️🌹

[@zuhourali]

❤️❤️❤️🥰💙💙💙

[@alexpeters3328]

Is Jeremy my favorite avenger? Maybe….

[@DavidMiller-kf1ss]

Any kin to children of corn guy? Lol.❤

[@user-kf5kq3bx2c]

🇺🇸😇🙏👍🕊️🦅💪

[@honewhetstone1732]

Only he was born to play Hawkeye.
