In his latest interview with ‘Parents,’ the ‘Avengers’ star shared how his tragic snowplow accident affected his family’s usual working dynamics, especially that of his relationship with 11-year-old daughter, Ava.
“I became the kid for the first six months. My daughter had to take care of me,” he recalled, adding that “There was something quite beautiful in that role reversal.”
“She had to grow up in a lot of ways. I overcame a lot of obstacles and got to show my daughter what resilience means by going through this journey with me,” he continued.

Jeremy Renner – On His Approach To Parenting: “It Takes A Village”
Going on to share his approach to parenting, Renner says, “As any parent knows, it takes a village. I think it’s very important to build one,” he shared. “You’re going to need many, many people — a cool uncle, a strong aunt — so that your kids have other voices in their lives that will be important to them and their perspectives. You can’t do it all for your kids 100 percent of the time. As much as we want to, we can’t.”
In the interview, Renner revealed that his love for Ava, whom he shares with ex Sonni Pachecho, has “only amplified” amid her newfound independence.

“I really understand my place as her father. It is my duty to teach her how to love, how to be strong, how to overcome. Leading by example has always been important to me. That’s only amplified,” he said. “My love is deeper, my conversations with my daughter are more adult. I now struggle to find the fun, goofy dad version that I was when she was 4 or 8.”
