Beloved 90s and 2000s movie star Cameron Diaz is officially back in action after four years of retirement from acting. Her new Netflix movie, fittingly titled Back in Action will be an action-comedy also starring Jamie Foxx.
The movie will be directed by Seth Gordon, whose credits include Horrible Bosses, The Goldbergs, Baywatch and more. He’s also directing episodes of the upcoming Netflix series The Night Agent. The script for Back in Action was co-written by Gordon and Brendan O’Brien (Neighbors).
The announcement came via star Jamie Foxx himself, who tweeted a recording of his conversation with co-star Cameron Diaz, who expressed her immense excitement for this project:
