UPDATED 2/27, 10 p.m. ET: Jeremy Renner has tunnel vision when it comes to his recovery.
The Marvel star took to his Instagram Stories to update his 20.3 million followers on his progress. He filmed himself on a stationary bike, seemingly in good spirits as he pedaled fast while using a leg guiding tool.
“Whatever it takes,” the actor encouragingly wrote.
In addition to physical rehab, Renner is also nurturing his mind with some spiritual reading. He posted a picture of himself relaxing to a fireplace with The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have by Mark Nepo, saying, “Mental recovery too.”

Jeremy Renner says he’s back home from the hospital following a snow plow accident in Nevada that initially left him in “critical but stable condition.”
In response to a tweet about his Paramount+ series Mayor of Kingstown, which premiered its second season this week, Renner gave fans an update on his condition while expressing gratitude for his loved ones.
“Outside my brain fog in recovery, I was very excited to watch episode 201 with my family at home,” Renner wrote.
Complex has reached out to a rep for Renner for additional comment. This story may be updated.
As previously reported, the actor was severely injured earlier this month while plowing snow. In an initial statement shared at the time, a rep said Renner was in “critical but stable condition with injuries suffered after experiencing a weather-related accident while plowing snow.”
Renner later updated fans and peers from the hospital, thanking them “for your kind words.”
In a press conference shortly after the accident, Washoe County Sheriff Darin Balaam provided additional details while clarifying what he said was “misinformation” surrounding the incident involving a PistenBully snow groomer.
“After successfully towing his personal vehicle from its stuck location, Mr. Renner got out of his PistenBully to speak to his family member,” Balaam told reporters. “At this point, it is observed that the PistenBully started to roll. In an effort to stop the rolling PistenBully, Mr. Renner attempts to get back into the driver’s seat of the PistenBully. Based on our investigation, it’s at this point that Mr. Renner is run over by the PistenBully.”
In response to the accident, per the Hollywood Reporter, marketing for Mayor of Kingstown has been slightly tweaked. Namely, a promo image featuring Renner with a visibly injured face has been altered to no longer feature prominent markings.
