The "Avengers" star, 52, has made a remarkable recovery in the 12 months since he was crushed by his 14,000-pound snowplow while trying to free his nephew's car from the deep snow in Nevada. Renner broke more than 30 bones in the near-fatal accident and suffered a collapsed lung and pierced liver.
Renner was a guest on CNN's "New Year's Eve Live" with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen on Sunday where he discussed his remarkable year and journey.
"I'm with my family who were actually all with me last year," Renner said over the video link. "We have a lot to celebrate this year and kind of recorrect what happened last year. I feel pretty blessed."

Renner said that he was "so blessed that I had so many things to live for" during the harrowing ordeal.
"I have a giant family and a 10-year-old daughter," he said. "I would have disappointed and really messed up a lot of people's lives if I had passed. So there's a lot for me to get better for. I'm also pretty stubborn and there's a lot for me to fight for."
Renner has a new music single coming out on New Year's Day and shared cover art earlier this month, which depicts him sitting on a dock with his 10-year-old daughter Ava Berlin Renner.
Renner discussed the project on Sunday saying that making music "has always been cathartic and healing for me."
"But this is more of a narrative of the life and death and recovery of all last year. So it's like a journal entry," said Renner. "It was a wonderfully healing."
