Jeremy Renner is back and better than ever, reprising his role as Mike McClusky in Mayor of Kingstown season 3.
The forthcoming episodes mark Renner’s return to television following his snow plow accident in January 2023. The actor suffered 30 broken bones after he was crushed by a 14,000-lb. snowplow, which he was preventing from hitting his nephew.
Over one year later, Renner shared his plans to return to the Mayor of Kingstown set, which would be his first acting role following the accident.
“We have a lot to celebrate this year,” the Marvel star shared on CNN’s New Year’s Eve special. “I’m so blessed that I had so many things to live for. I have a giant family, a 10-year-old daughter. I would have disappointed and messed up a lot of people’s lives if I passed. There’s a lot for me to fight for. Recovery is a one-way road in my mind. I still work hard every day.”
He also revealed that he would be headed to set “in a week.” When it came time for Mayor of Kingstown to start production once again, Renner shared a photo back in character.
“Day one on set,” he shared in the January 2024 post. “Nervous today. Hope this works out that I can ACTUALLY pull this off for our production and more importantly the fans.”
