With the sturdy wood by his side for support, he danced around the host's stage, embracing the moment with grace and determination.

Since the near-fatal incident, Renner has been sharing his healing journey on social media. From documenting his workouts to heartfelt words of encouragement from his daughter, the "Mayor of Kingstown" actor keeps the world updated on his inspiring progress. 

In May, he shared a video featuring him running through various warm-up styles using two exercise ropes connected to large equipment. Rocking a relaxed look, the "28 Weeks Later" actor wore a black face cap, a matching long-sleeved hoodie over gray shorts, and colored shoes during the invigorating workout session.

With swift moves, he shifted from side to side, added a backward lean, and effortlessly included a squat before gracefully concluding the video with a glance at the camera. Though short, the Academy Award winner shared his meaningful goal in the caption:

"UPDATE: I've decided to push through the pain of progress (this damn shattered tibia) and take the new parts for a tiny test drive. The body is miraculous…Even though I feel like the Tin Man, needing oil for all my new joints (hips, knees, ankles, tibia, etc). Encouraged after this warm up to press on (don't tell my PT)." 

The comment section overflowed with heartfelt sentiments from both fans and fellow celebrities, all rooting for his return to peak form while urging him to take it easy. One netizen stated, "Good for you, but please don't overdo it. You're making such amazing progress – don't want to jeopardize that," while another emphasized, "Looking great! Just don't push TOO hard and end up causing more damage!!"

'The Bourne Legacy' Star Returns To The Red Carpet After Near-Fatal Accident

In April, less than four months after being crushed by his seven-ton snow plow on New Year's Day while trying to free his nephew's car at his Reno, Nevada home, Renner made his first appearance on the Hollywood red carpet. He showed up at his "Rennervations" premiere, looking dapper in a deep blue suit over a white shirt and a blue tie. 

The event took place at the Regency Village Theatre, where the TV personality gracefully walked with a cane in his right hand while holding his daughter Ava Berlin's hand with his left. The "Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters" star took turns using the staff and a knee scooter and even gave the paparazzi a thumbs-up. 

The "Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation" actor shared a snapshot of the blue carpet on his Instagram Story, captioning it excitedly, "Rocking the blue carpet tonight!!!! Ready for this amazing event."

The Disney+ series, which premiered on April 12, features Renner teaming up with "expert builders" to convert massive decommissioned vehicles into community spaces for youth across the world. The locations include Nevada, Chicago, India, and Mexico.
