The 29-year-old actress posted a statement from the Foxx family on her Instagram, which read: “We wanted to announce that my father, Jamie Foxx, had a medical complication yesterday. Fortunately, with quick action and great diligence, he is already on the mend.”

She continued: “We know how much you are loved and we appreciate your prayers. The family requests privacy during this time.” (Hollywood Reporter)

No further details on the actor’s condition were initially available. The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to representatives from Foxx and Netflix but has not received a response as of press time. Back in Action reunites Foxx with Cameron Diaz, who went on an eight-year hiatus before Foxx persuaded her out of retirement to star in the action comedy. Their last film, in which Foxx also starred, was Annie in 2014, and before that, they appeared together in Any Given Sunday in 1999.

During an appearance on The Tonight Show in September, Diaz spoke about how “amazing” it was to be working with Foxx. “He’s so cool, he’s so straightforward, he’s so professional, he’s so talented,” she said. “And just being able to work with him is going to be so much fun.” Diaz previously opened up about her self-proclaimed retirement in a conversation with Gwyneth Paltrow in 2020.

“When you’re doing a film, it’s a perfect excuse. They’re yours,” Diaz said at the time. “You’re there 12 hours a day. You don’t have time for anything else for months. I realized that I gave parts of my life to all these other people and they took them away from me.” Pamela McClintock contributed to this report. (Hollywood Reporter)
