Hollywood star Jeremy Renner is bearing the brunt of a stunt gone awry -- both his arms have got fractured.

The "Avengers: Infinity War" star opened up about it at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival on Friday, saying that a stunt-gone-wrong on the set of his upcoming comedy "Tag" resulted in a fracture on his right elbow and left wrist, reported etonline.com.

"It's part of the job," Renner said.

"There will be an effect to it, but it won't stop me from doing things that I need to be doing... I'll heal fast. I'm doing everything I can to heal faster," he added.

Still, he said "Tag" lighter on stunts than his typical high-action fare.

"I'm doing a job ('Tag') that isn't really requiring a ton of stunts. It's not an action movie, it's a comedy. It just happens to have a few stunts in it. So I don't have to beat a whole lot of people up or do anything crazy. So it won't really affect my job," he added.
