Jeremy Renner is now in a wheelchair after being crushed by his 14,000lb snow plough, says his close friend and co-star in a new health update.
Avengers pal Evangeline Lilly, 43, said she was incredibly shocked to see her Marvel co-star's speedy recovery after breaking 30 bones in the horror incident.
Jeremy, 52, is "wheeling himself around" according to the actress who spoke of his recovery "miracle" at the premiere of Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania.
She praised her "legendary" pal for being "incredibly brave and strong" after the near-fatal ordeal which saw him dragged underneath his Pistunbully snowcat.
Jeremy is reportedly getting out and about in a wheelchair (Twitter)"He has recovered like a mo-fo," she told Access. "I walked in his house and got chicken skin, 'cause I was like, 'Why are you mobile? Why are you mobile? What's happening?'"

She explained: "I expected to sit at his bedside and hold his hand while he moaned and groaned in pain and wasn't able to move.
"He was wheeling himself around, laughing with his friends. It's a miracle, a straight-up miracle. He's made of something really tough, that guy.
"You've always been able to see that in him. He is recovering incredibly, and I'm so grateful."

Reports say the vehicle's parking brake, which could have prevented the horror ordeal, was not engaged - causing it to slide sideways, rolling over Jeremy's body.
According to a redacted Nevada sheriff's office incident report, Jeremy had been using the vehicle to free his relative's truck out of the snow before the terrifying incident.
