Downey Jr. stressed the need of keeping up appearances no matter how he felt physically, according to Renner, who described their meetings as similar to private discussions. As an encouragement for Renner’s rehabilitation, Downey Jr. emphasized how important it is for him to get back to shooting the Paramount+ series “Mayor of Kingstown.”

Renner, who is famous for his portrayal as “Hawkeye,” has shown his heroic side both on and off film; just before his accident, he rescued a family member from a snowcat tragedy. According to a report from the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office, Renner became ensnared under the enormous weight of a plow that had escaped despite his attempts to stop it.

In an interview with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen on New Year’s Eve, Renner stated his eagerness to return to work, thanked his daughter for her support, and documented his rehabilitation journey on social media.

Susan Downey reflected on her husband’s act of support and brought attention to his dedication to assisting fellow actors by sharing stories from his own journey with recovery. This was particularly true in light of his recent Academy Award victory.

She commented, “It’s just an appreciation for all he’s gone through, for all the people who stuck around through some of his more difficult times,” highlighting Downey Jr.’s belief in giving back through his acts.
