The Marvel star told Sawyer 'I chose to survive' in his first interview since the near-fatal accident on New Year's Day.

Next week, the world will hear Jeremy Renner recount the near-fatal horror he faced on New Year's Day when he was pulled under his 14,330 pound snowplow.

The two time Oscar nominee and Marvel star opened up to Diane Sawyer for his first interview since the accident in an hourlong special titled Jeremy Renner: The Diane Sawyer Interview - A Story of Terror, Survival and Triumph.


Renner, who was trying to divert the Sno-Cat that was sliding down a hill and heading for his nephew, suffered injuries including more than 30 broken bones. But he told Sawyer he'd "do it again."

In a released trailer for the special, Renner told Sawyer he remembered all of the pain:

"I was awake for every moment."

The Mayor of Kingstown star also told Sawyer:

"I'd do it again."
"Because it was going right at my nephew."

Renner's nephew also recalled the moment he found his uncle.

"I just perfectly see him in a pool of blood from his head."
"I ran up to him. I didn't think he was alive."

Sawyer's special will also include 911 recordings, in which Renner could be heard moaning in the background.

As Sawyer read the lengthy list of Renner's injuries, he confirmed:

"Eight ribs broken in 14 places, right knee, right ankle broken, left tibia broken, the left ankle broken, right clavicle broken, right shoulder broken, face eye socket, the jaw, the mandible broken, lung collapsed, pierced from the rib bone—your liver... which sounds terrifying."

You can watch the trailer for the special below.

In the trailer, Renner said:

"I chose to survive. You're not going to kill me."
"No way."

The full interview airs April 6 at 10 p.m. EST on ABC and will stream on Hulu the following day.

In addition to starring The Mayor of Kingstown, Renner also has the limited series Hawkeye and Rennervations streaming on Disney+.

While the first two feature Renner's award-winning acting, the third features the star as himself.

According to the description for Rennervations, in the series:

"Jeremy Renner teams up with expert builders to acquire large, decommissioned government vehicles and re-imagine them as 'mind-blowing creations' that serve kids in communities worldwide."

In her 2024 memoir, No Going Back: The Truth on What's Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward, Noem bragged about shooting and killing her 14-month-old Wire-haired Pointer puppy named Cricket after she failed to train it properly and without trying to rehome the dog to a competent trainer or a hunting dog rescue.

Trump Gives Pious Reminder That The Bible Says To Care For 'Vulnerable Children'—And The Hypocrisy Is Off The Charts

President Donald Trump was called out for hypocrisy after he said during the signing of an executive order expanding resources for the foster care system that the Bible instructs society to care for "vulnerable children and orphans"—only for people to point out that he had denied Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits to hungry children just days before.

The loss of SNAP is a result of the Trump administration's failure to spend contingency funds to feed people on the program, a decision that is resulting in a nationwide hunger crisis impacting millions of families.

Last week, Massie announced he'd married his wife, Carolyn Grace Moffa, in late October. His first wife and "high school sweetheart," Rhonda Howard Massie, died in June 2024.

But most of us can take comfort in the fact that we didn't do something so stupid that we had to call 9-1-1 to get us out of trouble.
