Jeremy Renner 'handcuffed to the bed' to stop hospital escapes
Jeremy Renner had to be "handcuffed to the bed" to stop him trying to leave hospital after his snowplough accident. The Hawkeye staff suffered over 30 broken bones, a lacerated liver and a collapsed lung in January 2023 when he was run over by his snowplough, and he has candidly admitted he was probably "the worst patient ever" because of his determination to go home, despite his poor physical condition. Asked about why he described himself as a difficult patient in his memoir My Next Breath, Jeremy told Jimmy Kimmel Live! guest host Jelly Roll: "Oh, yeah - that's because I kept wanting to break out of the hospital. " So these poor nurses, you can imagine, I'm kind of high on whatever they're feeding me. "I got tubes and epidurals and nine things stuck in me - I'm dragging the machines in the bed. I'm walking on broken legs. I never even made it to the door but once, but they handcuffed me to the bed because I was such a pain in the butt." When he did make it home from hospital, the 54-year-old actor suffered from hallucinations because of the strong painkillers he was taking, with him having "a conversation with a curtain" on one occasion and even having an entire imaginary outing with fellow actor Jamie Foxx. Jeremy said: "That was at home, and ... yeah. You know, as one might do, that's when you know you're not feeling any pain. "I was talking to objects and Jamie Foxx. "You guys know Jamie Foxx. He was there in my room. Jamie Foxx was there; he was in my room, then we got up and we went snowmobiling. All that happened in my mind. It didn't happen. "It's good drugs - good drugs." The Hurt Locker actor previously credited sheer willpower for helping him pull through after his accident. He told The Guardian newspaper: "I was bullying my body into thinking it wasn't that bad and my mind was overcoming the greatest odds it's ever come up against. My mind was saying, 'Nah!', it's part stubbornness. 'I don't want to lose this battle, this game', but the deeper part, the zoomed-out part, is I had so much to live for. I had a bunch of people waiting for me to go skiing! "I didn't want to let them down. That became such a big thing." Jeremy was unable to walk for two months after the accident but revealed that he only has a small number of scars as a result of the surgery he had. He said: " I have a bunch of little scars, but only from the surgery to save my body. The whole leg is titanium from the knee down to the ankle." The Tag actor explained that his mouth continues to be in considerable pain. He said: "My mouth is complete chaos. "It looks fine, but when I bite down it feels as if I'm going to break all my teeth."

Jeremy Renner Recalls Drug-Induced Hallucinations of Jamie Foxx During His Recovery After Snow Plow Accident
NEED TO KNOW Jeremy Renner hallucinated that he spent time with Jamie Foxx while he took painkillers during his recovery from his January 2023 snowplow accident Renner, who recounted the experience in his memoir My Next Breath, retold the anecdote on the Wednesday, July 16 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live "Jamie Foxx was there, he was in my room, then we got up and we went snowmobiling. All that happened in my mind," Renner saidJeremy Renner's recovery from his January 2023 snowplow accident included hallucinations involving Jamie Foxx due to the Avengers actor's use of painkillers. Renner, 54, recalled some of his hallucinatory experiences while he promoted his memoir My Next Breath on the Wednesday, July 16 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live with guest host Jelly Roll. "Yeah, yeah, that was at home, and ... yeah. You know, as one might do, that's when you know you're not feeling any pain," Renner said, after Jelly Roll — real name Jason DeFord — noted that he read in Renner's memoir that the actor "had a conversation with a curtain" brought on by painkillers. "I was talking to objects and Jamie Foxx," he added. "You guys know Jamie Foxx. He was there in my room. Jamie Foxx was there; he was in my room, then we got up and we went snowmobiling. All that happened in my mind. It didn't happen. It's good drugs - good drugs." Renner nearly died when he broke dozens of bones and was left in critical condition after he was struck and crushed by a seven-ton snowplow at his home near Reno, Nev., on New Year's Day in 2023. The actor has remained very public in addressing the circumstances of the incident and his months-long recovery with fans and followers, between publishing the memoir in April and admitting as recently as a July 12 interview with The Guardian that he still experiences pain in his mouth that stems from the incident. 'My mouth is still complete chaos," he told that outlet. 'It looks fine, but when I bite down, it feels as if I'm going to break all my teeth.'

"Oh, yeah — that's because I kept wanting to break out of the hospital. So these poor nurses, you can imagine, I'm kind of high on whatever they're feeding me," Renner recalled. "I got tubes and epidurals and nine things stuck in me - I'm dragging the machines in the bed. I'm walking on broken legs. I never even made it to the door but once, but they handcuffed me to the bed because I was such a pain in the butt." Renner's memoir My Next Breath is available now wherever books are sold.

File Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo July 17 (UPI) -- Avengers star Jeremy Renner says he hallucinated comedian actor Jamie Foxx while in the hospital after the 2023 snowplow accident that almost killed him. Renner, 54, discussed his recovery and his new memoir, My Next Breath, with singer Jelly Roll, who guest hosted Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday. "You were on so many pain pills at one point in time that you had a conversation with a curtain?" Jelly Roll asked during the interview. Renner confirmed he was indeed talking to objects and Foxx. "He was there in my room," Foxx recalled. "Then we got up and then we went snowmobiling... All that happened in my mind." Renner also shared how the accident that left him with nearly 40 broken bones changed his outlook on life. "We have so much in common, like you know like, second chances, you know, and our daughters being a big part of our second chances and even though they're different sort of scenarios -- but there's a perspective that comes from that, and beautiful clarity of life very intended and very purposeful and simplified -- oversimplification of life because it is just simply that simple," he told Jelly Roll. "And I like to leave it that way and keep it that way because it's really great man. It's really light and it's really loving and I get to give back a lot more." He added, "I just find a lot more joy in you know, in this sort of second chance and second go. I'm happy to be breathing, happy to be walking and everything after that is just icing on the cake." My Next Breath was released in April. Jeremy Renner turns 54: a look back Jeremy Renner attends the Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala in Palm Springs, Calif., on January 5, 2010.

‘It hurts my feelings': Jeremy Renner on ex-wife's claim he tried to kill her
Jeremy Renner, best known for his role as Hawkeye in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is speaking publicly for the first time in years about allegations made by his ex-wife during their contentious 2019 custody battle. In an interview with The Guardian over the weekend, Renner reflected on the emotional toll the accusations took on him and his daughter, Ava, whom he had with Sonnie Pacheco. The Canadian actress and model was married to Renner for just 10 months before filing for divorce in December 2014. 'Being accused of things you've not done, right? That doesn't feel good to anybody,' he said. 'It certainly doesn't feel good when you're a celebrity and it's known to everybody.' Renner dismissed the claims. 'It's all the salaciousness that happens out there,' he said. 'It's clickbait, and it hurts my feelings and it dehumanises people.' In 2019, during a highly publicized custody dispute, Pacheco accused Renner of threatening to kill her and himself, and alleged the actor fired a gun inside their home while their young daughter was in another room. The pair now share joint custody of Ava, who is 12. 'Her mom and I get along very well, and we're in each other's lives,' Renner said. 'It's lovely.' The interview also explored a defining moment in Renner's recent life: the near-fatal snowplow accident on New Year's Day 2023 that left him with more than 30 broken bones, a collapsed lung and other serious injuries. The incident occurred outside his Lake Tahoe home as he tried to stop a 14,000-pound snowcat from hitting his nephew. This year, he published a memoir, 'My Next Breath,' about the incident and his long recovery, which he said has reshaped his priorities toward philanthropy and family. 'I've never been more connected and more open and more vulnerable and more loving,' Renner told The Guardian. 'It's an honor to be alive.' The event, themed 'Protecting Lake Tahoe: Balancing Sustainable Recreation and Conservation,' will take place on Aug. 6 at Valhalla Tahoe — a venue favored by the late Senator Dianne Feinstein, who co-founded the event alongside Senator Harry Reid of Nevada.
