On New Year’s Day, Renner was announced to have been rushed to hospital after he was seriously injured by a collision with a snowplow in his native Reno, Nevada. Following surgery, Renner’s condition is steady, but in the absence of any further updates, we’ve learned that the actor was aiding another driver trapped in their vehicle when he was hit by the plow. “He was helping someone stranded in the snow. He is always helping others,” said Mayor of Reno Hillary Schieve in a statement.

The latest rumors point to the Kathryn Hahn starrer exploring the origins of the evil spellbook, which was in Agatha Harkness’ possession in her first appearance. Again, this is just a rumor for now, but it’s certainly a plausible one.
