Jeremy Renner has revealed he would relive his serious snowplough accident if it meant saving his nephew again in a trailer for his first interview since the incident. The Marvel actor, 52, has sat down with US broadcaster Diane Sawyer for an hour-long special where he detailed his experience and the aftermath of being crushed by a six-tonne snowploughing machine earlier this year.
The programme, which will air on April 6, will also feature interviews with Renner’s nephew and a recording of the 911 call following the accident. In a trailer for the Sawyer interview, Renner revealed he was “awake through every moment” of the incident in which broke more than 30 bones.
The actor confirmed he broke eight ribs in 14 places, sustained multiple breaks to his legs and severe damage to his shoulder and face. He also had a lung collapse and a rib bone pierced his liver which left him wondering “What’s my body look like? Am I just going to be a spine and a brain like a science experiment?”
