Jeremy Renner is on the mend after sustaining injuries in a snowplow accident over the weekend.
The “Bourne Legacy” actor, 51, gave fans an update on his health, sharing a selfie of himself sitting in a hospital bed with the side of his face covered in bruises and scrapes.
“Thank you all for your kind words. 🙏,” he captioned the Instagram post on Tuesday. “Im too messed up now to type. But I send love to you all.”
Renner was met with words of encouragement from several stars in the comments section of his post.
“Brother u r a superhero to all of us. U will get through this with flying colors. Love and positive energy to u!” DJ Steve Aoki wrote.
“Sending so much love n healing!” actress Vanessa Hudgens also commented.
“Continued prayers your way brutha. ♥️,” Marvel co-star Chris Pratt also said.
“🖤🖤 get well soon. Praying for you,” actress Ashley Benson told him.
Back on Sunday Renner’s rep revealed the actor was in “critical but stable condition” after sustaining injuries in “a weather-related accident while plowing snow” earlier that day.
“His family is with him, and he is receiving excellent care,” the rep added.
One of Renner’s neighbors told TMZ on Monday that he lost a tremendous amount of blood after a snowplow accidentally ran over one of his legs while helping a stranded motorist in the snow.
Another one of Renner’s neighbors — who happened to be a doctor — placed a tourniquet on his leg until paramedics were able to airlift him to the hospital.
Renner’s rep further told People that the two-time Oscar nominee “suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries.”

“They are also tremendously overwhelmed and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support from his fans,” the family concluded.
