Renner’s eye was swollen shut in the video, and he was seen breathing out of an oxygen mask at the time.

Variety confirmed Jan. 17 that Renner had left the hospital and returned home. He more or less announced the news himself when he told fans on social media that he was “very excited” to watch the season premiere of his Paramount+ series “Mayor of Kingstown” at home.
