Avengers Star Jeremy Renner ‘Actually Died’ After Fatal Snowplough Accident, Reveals Co-Star - Main Image
Jeremy Renner proved he’s a real-life hero after saving his nephew from being hit by his snow-removal tractor, leaving him suffering a fatal snowplough accident on New Year’s Day in 2023. But though everyone knows that he has successfully survived after fighting for his life, his Mayor of Kingstown co-star Michael Beach revealed the Avengers star “actually died.”
Renner was trying to stop his snowcat from sliding and hitting his nephew when he ended up being pulled under the vehicle and crushed.
After being rushed to the hospital, the actor who plays Hawkeye in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) underwent multiple surgeries after breaking 30 bones in the incident.
He also reportedly suffered “blunt chest trauma and orthopaedic injuries.” But due to the severity of what happened, not everyone knows that his heart stopped beating.

Zendaya made a spectacular comeback to the Met Gala on Monday! Following a five-year absence, Zendaya returned as a co-chair for the 2024 Met Gala, joining Jennifer Lopez, Chris Hemsworth, and Bad Bunny. Before this, her last Met Gala appearance was in 2019 when she dazzled the crowd in her magical Tommy Hilfiger Cinderella ball gown.
The 27-year-old actress delivered more than I could have imagined at the 2024 Met Gala, showcasing not one or two but three exquisite outfits appropriate for a co-chair. Her latest outing came following a whirlwind press tour for Challengers, where she once again demonstrated her mastery of method dressing by donning chic tennis-inspired looks.
In true Zendaya and, of course, Law Roach fashion, they did not let fans, including me, down.

It is fair to say that in its later years, George Miller‘s Mad Max franchise truly has become a saga. The term is used now boldly and often in the marketing for Furiosa, a film which marks the 79-year-old filmmaker’s fifth sojourn into the glories and horrors of the Wasteland. Yet what once was a series of standalone adventures in the life of Max Rockatansky and his post-apocalyptic travails has become something altogether grander thanks to 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road. For it was in this film that Miller introduced viewers to a new and instantly iconic protagonist, the Master of the War Rig and Scourge of the Citadel, Imperator Furiosa (played unforgettably by Charlize Theron).
By the end of the movie, it was Furiosa’s triumph that stuck with viewers as she ascended to the Citadel’s throne of power, promising a new and hopefully fairer matriarchal...

Anya Taylor-Joy is set to play the younger version of the taciturn metal-armed warrior Imperator Furiosa, earlier played by Charlize Theron, in the upcoming film Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Director George Miller picked Taylor-Joy after an audition where she nailed her performance of a portion of the 1976 film Network. She believed that Miller cast her in the role due to the one quality that she portrayed in her versatile roles.

Even though The Office ended its legendary run on NBC 11 years ago, the show remains one of the most renowned and hilarious TV Series. The sitcom show was based on the UK show of the same name, and it was solid enough to become a fan-favorite series when it first aired back in 2005. During the 9 seasons of the show, it created a massive fan following by featuring hilarious situations and how it can repeatedly be watched without the viewer ever getting bored.
The cast of The Office
Indeed, The Office occupies a special place in the sitcom genre. However, fans of the show would be stunned to know that a new series inspired by the 2005 show has been picked up by Peacock and it will not feature the original show’s stars, Steve Carell and John Krasinski.

Just two weeks out from the debut of the hugely anticipated film, get a final glimpse of Furiosa – George Miller’s return to the world of Mad Max.
So here we are. In just a couple of weeks, one of 2023’s most anticipated films will arrive, bringing George Miller’s world of Mad Max back to cinemas for the first time since 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road wowed audiences with its incredible scale and ambition.

"Where are you going? So full of hope? There is no hope!!" It's time! Get your tickets now! Warner Bros has launched a third official trailer for Furiosa, George Miller's highly anticipated follow-up to the sensational action classic Mad Max: Fury Road (from 2015). It opens in theaters in just a few more weeks at the end of May. This action prequel tells the origin story of the renegade warrior Furiosa before she teamed up with Mad Max. It was shot again in Australia in 2022 and is finally read to blow the lid off the summer movie season this year. Anya Taylor-Joy stars as a younger Imperator Furiosa, the same Furiosa in the action classic Mad Max: Fury Road (played by Charlize Theron). It also stars Chris Hemsworth as Dementus, Tom Burke, Nathan Jones, Angus Sampson, Quaden Bayles, Daniel Webber, and Lachy Hulme, plus Alyla Browne as the young Furiosa character.

Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth are ready to “make it epic” when Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga barrels into cinemas on May 24, 2024! As tickets for the full-throttle prequel become available for pre-order, the final Furiosa trailer explodes onto screens with action, drama, and one particular shot that now makes me curious about an element of the film. I’m talking about the shot of the CGI-enhanced War Boy.
My knee-jerk reaction to the CGI-enhanced War Boy is one of apprehension. How large of a role does this character play in the film, and will their cartoonishness offset an otherwise incredible-looking film? I hope not. One of the more thrilling elements of Miller’s Mad Max series is the visual spectacle, and I worry the CGI-enhanced War Boy could be an “arrow to the knee.” I could be entirely off base, and I’m simply being paranoid for no good reason.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga director George Miller recently confirmed that the upcoming prequel will feature a surprise appearance from Max Rockatansky. Except now, what could have been one of the movie's biggest talking points is no longer a surprise!
We first met the character in 1979's Mad Max where he was played by Mel Gibson. The actor went on to reprise the role in Mad Max 2 and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, with Tom Hardy taking over in 2015's Mad Max: Fury Road.
During a recent screening, Miller announced that Jacob Tomuri (who we've included a photo of below) will play Max in Furiosa.
"It was Jacob Tomuri, who was Tom Hardy's double [in Fury Road]," Miller told attendees (via SFFGazette.com). "He also did some other stunts. He's a New Zealand stuntman, and he was doing some other stunts on the film, and I thought, 'Who better?'"

George Miller is the master of the modern myth. His sprawling "Mad Max" franchise now includes five feature films, novelizations, a comic book series, and two video games — all helping expand a post-apocalyptic Wasteland loaded with lore, characters, and laws different from our own. "Furiosa" serves as a prequel to "Fury Road," but a continuation of the story started in the first "Mad Max" film from 1979. As an audience, we know where Imperator Furiosa's story ends up, but "Furiosa" will show us how she got there.
One of the hardest things about making a prequel is ensuring that there are still stakes to the story at hand, knowing that what comes after has already been established. Sometimes it works, like with "The Hunger Games: The Battle of Songbirds & Snakes," but more often than not, the delivery is more akin to "The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas," "Dumb and Dumberer," or depending on who you ask,...

The early reviews are rolling in, and the critics don’t hold back: here’s what the industry’s biggest connoisseurs are saying about the Anya Taylor-Joy-led post-apocalyptic action adventure.

Fans were clearly devastated after the announcement that Charlize Theron is no longer returning to lead the upcoming post-apocalyptic film Furiosa, but director George Miller has a very logical reason for this decision.

The prequel franchise is now led by Anya Taylor-Joy who portrays the young version of Furiosa. There had been ideas of using CGI on Theron to de-age her, but this was ultimately scrapped by Miller.

During his interview with Variety, filmmaker George Miller explained how using CGI won’t do the job for Furiosa. He noted that, while the technology is a great option, it has its limits.

He rates this revenge movie a solid 10/10. Wright also mentioned that the film’s subtitle, “A Mad Max Saga,” lives up to its word, reminiscent of another revenge film classic, the 11-time Oscar-winning Ben-Hur. Here’s what he had to say about it.

The first and original Dune live-action movie from 1984, based on Frank Herbert’s novel series of the same name, may not have been as perfect of an adaptation as Denis Villeneuve’s, however, Kyle MacLachlan’s performance as Paul Atreides in it was nothing short of epic. This was perhaps because of his nerdiness and ever-lasting love for the superhit science fiction book series.
Dune (1984).
That being said, MacLachlan obviously had some advice for Timothée Chalamet as well, when he heard that the younger Hollywood heartthrob would be the one replacing him in the iconic role for Villeneueve’s reboot of the saga. As for his thoughts on the Canadian filmmaker? Well, even the 65-year-old MacLachlan couldn’t doubt the 56-year-old director’s talent on the matter!

And, as fans must have already come to know by now, the currently raging Hollywood hotshot Anya Taylor-Joy has replaced Charlize Theron for the iconic titular role of the imperator.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
While this decision was previously only accepted by fans because this film would see a younger version of the Furiosa we saw in Fury Road, it feels like Taylor-Joy has not only performed up to the mark but even surpassed many expectations. If anything, fans should brace themselves to be shocked, because Taylor-Joy can make you believe that Theron has returned to the saga!

The upcoming summer release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, which stars Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, is the next entry in George Miller and Byron Kennedy’s post-apocalyptic action film series Mad Max. Mad Max: Fury Road, which won an Oscar, Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, and The Road Warrior were the three subsequent flicks in the series after the 1979 release of the first movie.
However, it seems Taylor-Joy’s work on Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga didn’t attract as much attention as her covert marriage to Malcolm McRae, which took everyone by surprise. But now, it seems like the actress, 28, is making up for lost time with the perfect gift for her beloved husband after wrapping up filming for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

In Taika Waititi's 2022 film "Thor: Love and Thunder," an emotionally wounded man named Gorr (Christian Bale) has learned that the very real gods of the Marvel universe are selfish, uncaring, and are more interested in cavorting with nymphs and naiads than answering prayers. By happenstance, he comes into possession of a magical sword specifically designed for killing gods and takes on a quest to rid the universe of its living deities. "Love and Thunder" could have brought up some tantalizingly difficult questions about atheism, or the role of faith in the modern world. It could have mentioned the dubious function of gods in a universe that regularly produces superpowered uber-beings. It didn't. Instead, it was a whimsical slapstick comedy starring a hero who, like Homer Simpson, became dumber and dumber as the series progressed.
Partway through "Love and Thunder," Gorr kidnaps the children of Asgard and imprisons them in the Shadow Realm,...

It was on New Year's Day in 2023 that Hawkeye's Jeremy Renner was crushed by a snowplow while attempting to save his nephew. However, just over a year after he sustained life-threatening injuries, the actor returned to work in February to shoot Mayor of Kingstown season 3.
To recap, Renner jumped onto the rolling snowplow when he noticed it sliding towards his nephew and was pulled underneath and crushed. Sustaining more than 30 broken bones, he underwent emergency surgery to save his life and spent the vast majority of 2023 recovering.
Talking to The Direct, Renner's Mayor of Kingstown co-star Michael Beach (Dead Boy Detectives) claimed the MCU vet "actually died" following the incident.
"Jeremy [Renner] is a war horse, man. I mean that guy, you know, he broke 38 bones. He actually died, which I didn't know until he told me, and he's been coming back," the actor said. "And he says he wasn't sure how it would be.

To recap, Renner jumped onto the rolling snowplow when he noticed it sliding towards his nephew and was pulled underneath and crushed. Sustaining more than 30 broken bones, he underwent emergency surgery to save his life and spent the vast majority of 2023 recovering.
Talking to The Direct, Renner's Mayor of Kingstown co-star Michael Beach (Dead Boy Detectives) claimed the MCU vet "actually died" following the incident.
"Jeremy [Renner] is a war horse, man. I mean that guy, you know, he broke 38 bones. He actually died, which I didn't know until he told me, and he's been coming back," the actor said. "And he says he wasn't sure how it would be.

The 2024 action-comedy, The Fall Guy, starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt as the leading stars made its way to the theaters earlier this month to much fanfare. Packed with stunts, adventure, humor, and romance, the flick has earned its way to the top spot in the audience’s hearts. Also featuring the likes of Winston Duke, Aaron-Taylor Johnson, and Hannah Waddingham as part of its cast, interestingly enough, one behind-the-scenes incident would connect the British actress from the list directly with Thor actor, Chris Hemsworth.
Famed for his staggering physique and command of the screens, the Marvel actor undoubtedly boasts immense versatility, proving it with the upcoming Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga movie. However, the uncanny connection between Waddingham and Hemsworth goes beyond the scope of acting and has much more to do with their nativity to the Australian landscape.

Anya Taylor-Joy plays the younger version of Imperator Furiosa, a character earlier played to perfection by Charlize Theron, in the upcoming George Miller film Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Taylor-Joy had a rough six months shooting for the film in the wastelands of Australia, often sacrificing her sleep and weekends for the same. She revealed that when she watched the unedited black-and-white footage of the film, she couldn’t even go through the first three minutes without crying.

Miller picked Anya Taylor-Joy for the role after her audition, where she performed lines from the 1976 film Network. Besides Taylor-Joy, Chris Hemsworth and Tom Burke also play the crucial roles of Warlord Dementus and Praetorian Jack respectively in the film.

Mattel's next "big" movie may have found its director, as Deadline reports today that Sam Hargrave has closed a deal with Skydance and Mattel Films to helm the toy company's upcoming film "Matchbox." Hargrave is best known as the director of the Netflix film "Extraction" and its sequel; Netflix has said the first film in the franchise is one of the most-watched original movies it's ever released.
Mattel, the company that brought fans a billion-dollar "Barbie" movie, is clearly looking for another huge hit, and based on his track record at Netflix, Hargrave is able to get audiences seated. The first "Extraction" film dropped in 2020, starred Chris Hemsworth, and was reportedly watched by 99 million households during its first month on the streamer. While Netflix's data and viewership measurements are notoriously opaque, that's still a hell of a number, and it's one that could translate to success when it comes to "Matchbox.

The Met Gala is the biggest event in fashion, with A-list stars walking the red carpet in unique, high-concept looks.
But after the event (watch it here) comes the party where those same A-listers get into something more comfortable and quite literally let their hair down. There were also a number of events leading up to the party.
Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Chris Hemsworth, Bad Bunny and Anna Wintour serve as this year’s co-chairs. Expect to see them — and a few Kardashians, too — as you scroll through the images of the festivities below.

The social media embargo just lifted for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, and it sounds like filmmaker George Miller has done it again. Given his phenomenal pedigree, we aren't surprised; does the prequel improve on 2015's classic Mad Max: Fury Road, though?
That was always going to be a tall order and, based on what we see below, it doesn't quite match the rights of that gloriously demented ride. In its own right, though, Furiosa's origin story sounds like a worthy addition to the long-running series which kicked off with 1979's Mad Max.
Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth are receiving widespread praise for their work, with the latter's transformation once again making it clear there's more to him than playing the McU's God of Thunder in the Avengers and Thor franchises.

Over two dozen pro-Palestine protesters were arrested on Manhattan’s Upper East Side on Monday evening while marching from a midtown college campus to the Metropolitan Museum of Art to demonstrate in front of the Met Gala, one of the most high-profile events of the year in the city.
The New York Police Department confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that the arrests took place at 6:30 p.m. local time at 80th Street and Madison Avenue, just a block away from the star-studded red carpet event, which was teaming with paparazzi.
Waving Palestinian flags and chanting “Gaza! Gaza!”, according to The New York Times, the demonstrators were largely from student groups at Baruch College, Columbia University and New York University who had gathered to protest the war in Gaza, and then converged at Hunter College, according to the NYPD.

Marvel Studios and the Marvel Cinematic Universe isn’t what it used to be anymore. From failing movies to cringe scenes (just look at Thor: Love and Thunder), the MCU is suffering through the effects of post-Endgame clarity.
Disney’s current CEO, Bob Iger, recently unveiled a new plan for the Marvel Cinematic Universe which seems good (at first). However, it is the majority opinion of the people that this new plan isn’t going to work.

Even after almost a decade, critics and audiences continue to heap praise on Mad Max: Fury Road. The 2015 sci-fi classic earns every accolade, from its subtle character work to its jaw-dropping visuals. But there’s one thing that cannot be said about Fury Road: that it has no CG.
True, director George Miller and his stunt team did many of the most impressive action sequences in-camera. But he did so with the assistance of computer graphics to erase the safety wires and other rigging. In other words, Miller has no problem using computer effects, provided that they don’t get in the way of the story he’s telling.
For the same reason, Miller chose to recast one of the people most responsible for the brilliance of Fury Road. In the upcoming prequel Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Anya-Taylor Joy smears on the black grease paint of Imperator Furiosa, taking...

The time has come for audiences to start witnessing George Miller’s newest action epic to see if it takes them to Valhalla or leaves them scrounging for food in the desert. The latest installment of the Mad Max saga spins off from Mad Max: Fury Road and sees Anya Taylor-Joy taking up the role from Charlize Theron. It had recently been confirmed that Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga will also be the franchise’s longest film, with the Cannes Film Festival website confirming its 2 hour and 28 minute runtime. While that means the film is significantly longer (by a half hour) than Fury Road, it’s worth noting that this prequel tells a truly epic tale that takes place over decades. Fury Road only took place over two days.

In a May 6 post on X, Shia Labeouf appeared to side with Kendrick Lamar amid the rapper’s never-ending war of words with Drake. 2024 will be remembered as the year of one of the greatest lyrical battles between two rap titans, Kendrick Lamar and Drake. The decade-long feud between the rappers escalated over the weekend as the two continued to drop multiple diss tracks. Kendrick Lamar is currently leading the charts on Spotify and Apple.
As the battle raged on, sides were picked, and an overwhelming number of social media users declared Kendrick Lamar the apparent winner.

The first reactions are here for George Miller’s latest venture into the post-apocalyptic wasteland.
The embargo broke for social media reactions to Furiosa, the eagerly anticipated prequel to the 2015 stunner Mad Max: Fury Road.
This new entry has Anya Taylor-Joy as Imperator Furiosa (taking over for Charlize Theron) and Chris Hemsworth as a devious warlord in a story that takes place 15 years before the previous film.
Early social reactions (below) can sometimes be a bit different (typically more enthusiastic) than official critic reviews, and surely there are many more to come soon. But based on the first batch Monday evening, Furiosa is a visual stunner with “ferocious, wild and unrelenting” action and a story that “spans decades” and boosts strong performances from the two leads.
The question going into the movie’s Memorial Day weekend launch is whether Miller’s epic can jump start the Hollywood box office after a sluggish few months,...

Colman Domingo opened up about the inspiration behind his 2024 Met Gala look, which he says was a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman and André Leon Talley.
Domingo was among many celebrities who walked up the steps of The Met to celebrate the new exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.” This year’s gala theme was “The Garden of Time,” and Domingo wore a cape that extended from his jacket and paired it with wide-legged pants.
“They both wore capes when they were at the Met,” Colman told E! at the event. “Everything I do, I feel like it’s gotta be for the culture. It’s gotta be more than just for me.”
He continued, “I wanted to honor these brothers who were here before me as well.”

Jennifer Lopez, a co-chair of fashion’s biggest night, wore her most daring Met Gala ensemble yet at Monday’s gala, taking place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
Arriving on the earlier end, as is expected for a co-chair of the night, Lopez stepped onto the carpet in a Custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown designed by Daniel Roseberry.
The dress code for this year’s gala is “The Garden of Time.” The A-lister was mostly on theme with the look. The sheath dress, embroidered with warm silver pearls and rhinestones, features 2.5 million silver foil bugles. Lopez told Vogue on the red carpet that the look was meant to resemble butterfly wings.
To round out the look, the star wore a Tiffany & Co. necklace, earrings and bracelet, a ring in platinum and yellow gold with diamonds and a Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Bird on a Rock ring.

Opulent to outrageous, elegant to excessive, Monday night’s Met Gala red carpet was equal parts star-studded and visually stunning. Then again, with Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth as the evening’s co-chairs, how could it not?
Fold in scores of other stars — were there ever this many at a Met Gala — including Nicole Kidman, Alexandra Daddario, Barry Keoghan, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Elizabeth Debicki, Janelle Monáe, Jeremy Strong, Michelle Williams and Serena Williams, and the 2024 Met Gala ranked as among the most thrilling and stylish in recent memory.
This year’s dress code, “The Garden of Time,” took its cue from the 1962 short story of the same name by J.G. Ballard, which dovetails nicely with the latest Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute exhibition, Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, which opens to the public on Friday, May 10. The Andrew Bolton-curated show spotlights fragile pieces from the institute’s archives,...

Simply doing a literal red carpet for a red carpet event isn’t enough anymore. Especially when it’s a party as big as the Met Gala.
Each year, the Met Gala rolls out a new carpet design that’s inspired by the theme of the evening.
This year, the star-studded crowd, which includes co-chairs Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth, is walking up steps that are covered in a cream color with mossy green accents along the sides.
The design choice is in keeping with the dress code of the 2024 Met Gala, “The Garden of Time,” which is inspired by a J.G. Ballard story.
Meanwhile, the sides of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s storied steps are lined with greenery-covered barriers between the stars and photographers and reporters, and the walls are painted with forest scenes that look like they could be out of an old masters painting.
