Jeremy Renner appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Monday and shared a hilarious get-well-soon video by his buddy and fellow Avenger Paul Rudd.
The actor, who was introduced by Kimmel as the "two-time Oscar nominated actor and Avenger who beat Thanos, Loki and a 14,000 pound snow plow," sat down with the host to talk about his new Disney+ show Rennervations.
But the "indestructible" star also delighted fans with a fake video card sent by his Marvel co-star while he was in the hospital recovering from his January 1 snow plow accident.
Rudd imitated a Cameo—a service that allows celebrities to send personalized messages to fans—to wish the Mayor of Kingstown a speedy recovery.
Renner revealed to Kimmel:
"He made a fake one like I paid him money for a Cameo."
Kimmel showed the video which began with Rudd saying:
"Hey Jerry..."
It continued:
"I hear you're a little banged up."
"Got in a fight with a snowblower apparently?"
"Anyway, I just wanted to send this video. It's really from the heart and hope you're felling better."
"Sounds like you are - apparently you're a pretty tough guy."
Rudd also said:
"Maybe I'll get to meet you someday."
He hilariously finished:
"Maybe next time just let the snow melt."
"Feel better, Jerry."
You can watch the clip below.
Viewers of the segment were highly entertained by the "Cameo" and took to Twitter to express their delight.
