鈥淚 completely forgot about the show; I only cared about Jeremy.鈥�

On Jan. 1, Renner suffered orthopedic injuries and blunt chest trauma as a result of a snow plow accident in Reno, Nev. At the time, the accident left the actor in stable but critical condition, leaving his fate up to speculation.

Dillon said the news felt like a world-stopping moment, rendering every other thing in his life insignificant by comparison.

After Renner was airlifted to the hospital for treatment, he posted a photo on social media, thanking everyone for the 鈥渒ind words,鈥� though not before reassuring his friend Dillon that he was in good health.

鈥淭he news was so public and I just wanted to go to the hospital, find him, and figure out what鈥檚 happening,鈥� said Dillon, adding he was nervous wreck in those initial 24 hours.

鈥淏ut the next day, he sends me the most profane, comical, 鈥榚h!鈥� video, and I鈥檓 like, oh my God; I鈥檓 relieved, he鈥檚 OK.鈥�

The immediate concern by the artist speaks to the Kingston, Ont., native鈥檚 personal and professional friendship with Renner, which dates backto their acting roles in the 2017 neo-Western 鈥淲ind River," and is further cemented with their work together on "Mayor of Kingstown," in which Renner plays the lead.

鈥淭his is a passion project for me and this is a dude who gave everything to this show," said Dillon.

"Mayor of Kingstown,鈥� co-created by Taylor Sheridan, who is also behind 鈥淵ellowstone,鈥� revolves around a mayor and his power broker family who live in a blue-collar community in Michigan that houses seven prisons 鈥� partially inspired by Dillon鈥檚 birthplace, Kingston, which is also known for being home to several penitentiaries.

Season 2 takes aim at the prison-industrial complex, playing on the themes of corruption, oppression and systematic racism.

Following a prison riot that capped off the show鈥檚 first season, it becomes the mayor's responsibility to be a mediator and restore peace in a war between local prisoners and law enforcement.

Dillon plays a hard-nosed homicide detective who finds himself entangled in the escalating tensions in Kingstown.

He said the show's themes were informed by his and Sheridan's understanding of the prison system, as well as his personal experience. The script was penned more than 10 years ago.

鈥淚鈥檓 no saint 鈥� I鈥檝e lived a couple of different lives and that鈥檚 why I鈥檓 interested in the ethical drift and what makes people do what they do,鈥� said Dillon. 鈥淚鈥檓 interested in the formal economy of drugs and crime. I mean, that鈥檚 something I was involved in.鈥�

Before joining the rock band Headstones in 1987, Dillon spent time in London squatting and working odd jobs, and said he had occasional brushes with the law.

鈥淢y experience with the system was different, I even had the great Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter help me with my charges at one point,鈥� said Dillon.

鈥淲hy do we do the things we do? It鈥檚 what we鈥檙e trying to do with our storytelling, and I was lucky that I followed my impulse as an artist, and it was stronger than my impulse to self-destruct.鈥�

Although the 好色tv Screen Award winner credits the fruition of 鈥淢ayor of Kingstown鈥� contributions from the entire cast and crew, he couldn鈥檛 envision any of it without his pal, Renner on board.

鈥淲e wouldn鈥檛 do this show 鈥� I can鈥檛 even picture it,鈥� said Dillon. 鈥淚鈥檓 a musician, so if I鈥檓 playing guitar, then you hand it to somebody else who is a master 鈥� it鈥檚 always fascinating to see how he works and how he plays.

Renner, who spent his 52nd birthday in the hospital on Jan. 7, is still on the road to recovery and has been sharing a few updates on social media since the accident.

鈥淭he crew loves him, we all love him because he treats everybody well and he cares about people and he鈥檚 unstoppable," said Dillon. "I love that guy.鈥�
