Los Angeles, March 17 (IANS) Hollywood star Jeremy Renner is said to think that acting is “no longer a priority” in his life.
‘The Avengers’ actor who had his chest and legs pulverised by his 14,000-lb Pistenbully Snowcat as he tried to stop it hurtling into his nephew on New Year’s Day, has reportedly said to have his career perspective totally shifted by the near-fatal accident and now wants to focus on helping change the world, reports aceshowbiz.com.
A source told DailyMail.com about his continuing battle to recover as he looks forward to his ‘Rennervations’ docuseries about helping communities being released on Disney+ in April, “Jeremy believes that he survived the accident so that he can use his platform to really create change in the world. He is very proud of the work that he has done, but this entire situation has really shown him that there is so much more that he could be doing to help others.”
The source added that Jeremy’s 69-year-old mom Valerie had been giving him ‘tremendous’ support since he shattered 30-plus bones in his accident. They said: “His mother come to stay with him most weekends, as well as his daughter Ava.”

I decided to reimagine repurpose and renovate these vehicles and I wanted to it for communities and help kids all over the world. There’s a lot of concern on the ‘Avengers’ family chat like, you know, what is Renner doing? He’s going a little off the rails.”
