“I thought, ‘Ooo, shit, this is going to hurt later. Ooo, that’s the apple of my eye — this is kind of weird! I thought, shit, I wonder if this breathing issue is just a cramp. I just need to get my breathing right and then I can tell the family we’re not skiing today,'” Jeremy recalled. “The paramedics came and I thought, ‘I have to give them my body because I’m done. I’m not getting up. This isn’t just cramping. I’m not going down the driveway to see my family.'”

“I will not take my daughter skiing today. Or all the children who have been waiting for me. I can’t fool myself anymore,” said the Arrival Star remembered what he had been thinking. “I have to give up and just focus on breathing. Focus on breathing. Focus on breathing.”

When you work with people — look, we’ve all been through a culturally significant experience together. And there are divorces and weddings and babies; a lot has happened in those 12 years. In the movies, we look like we’re at a costume party, and there are ridiculous props and we do these ridiculous things, but it’s also beautiful because we’re all connected. There’s a brotherhood or sisterhood or whatever you want to call it. I just call it love. I love every one of them. I’d rather go to prison with Downey than do something amazing on my own. I’d rather be with (Chris Evans.”
