"Jeremy Renner Stars as Mayor in Kingstown" - Star recounts after dreadful incident
A little over a year ago, New Year's Day 2023 found Jeremy Renner (53) near death. However, the Marvel star not only survived the accident where a massive snowplow crushed him, but he also recovered quickly and returned to Hollywood as if nothing had happened. His return can be seen in the third season of his drama series "Mayor of Kingstown," which premieres on Paramount+ on June 3rd.
The Series: A Town with Issues and the Man Who Runs It
For those who haven't had a chance to see "Mayor of Kingstown" but don't want to miss Renner's return, here's a synopsis: Set in the fictional Michigan town of Kingstown, the series follows the life of Mike McLusky, played by Renner. After a family tragedy, Mike finds himself taking over the role of mayor when his brother dies. His main job is to navigate the city's corruption, racism, and injustice.
Season Three: Facing Tough Decisions
To avoid spoilers, we'll keep the episode plot under wraps. However, we can reveal that Mike is hit with another personal tragedy in the season three opener, leading to some emotional moments from the characters.
Renner addressed the changes coming to both his character and the series: "In a way, he's gained a new level of intimacy and gentleness. But when pushed to his limits, he's forced to make some hard decisions." [In German: "In gewisser Weise hat er auch eine neue Intimität und Sanftmut gewonnen. Aber wenn man an seine Grenzen gerückt wird, trifft man ein paar echte harte Entscheidungen."] Image
