Jeremy Renner is looking on the bright side after his traumatic snowplow accident.
The Marvel actor is on the road to recovery after nearly being crushed to death in January by a snowplow that weighed over 14,000 pounds, and he proved on his Instagram Story that despite everything, he’s managing to stay positive.
He shared a photo of snow melting outside his home with a clear visible pathway, captioning it "This melt brings HOPE … And a new entrance into my house it seems .. Right in the front !?!?"

JEREMY RENNER SHARES ‘ICU SPA MOMENT' AFTER SNOWPLOWING ACCIDENT: ’THANK YOU MAMA'
"I walked in his house and … I was like, ‘Why are you mobile? What is happening?’ 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."
Lilly and Renner first worked together in the 2008 film "Hurt Locker."
Although Renner appeared to be in good spirits, medical experts noted that his accident could have been fatal.
Dr. Robert Glatter, assistant professor of emergency medicine at New York City's Lenox Hill Hospital, told Fox News Digital that while Renner's recovery is going well, he will likely face a difficult road ahead with extensive rehab and potential chronic pain.
