Cameron Diaz, a prominent Hollywood actress, recently spoke out against rumors concerning her and Jamie Foxx during the production of their Netflix film, “Back in Action.” Having previously collaborated with Foxx in “Any Given Sunday” (1999) and “Annie” (2014), Diaz clarified that there were no issues between them during filming.
On the “Lipstick on the Rim” podcast with Molly Sims, which aired on Tuesday, December 19, Diaz shared her thoughts on the rumors. She lauded Foxx for his positive influence and enjoyable nature on set. “Jamie is the best. I love that guy so much. He’s such a special person, he’s so talented, so much fun,” Diaz stated. She mentioned that the film’s production encountered the usual challenges, with the only significant delay occurring at the end due to a medical situation involving Foxx.
Diaz did not elaborate on the details of Foxx’s medical event but assured that he is currently thriving. She criticized the attempts to malign Foxx’s character, applauding his professional response to the rumors and expressing her own anger over the negative portrayal of her co-star.
The film “Back in Action” marks a notable comeback for Diaz, who has not appeared in a film since “Annie” in 2014. Anticipated for a 2024 release, the movie has been a key topic in the entertainment sector, highlighting Diaz’s return and her collaboration with Foxx. This action-comedy, primarily shot in London and Atlanta, is expected to be a significant work for both Diaz and Foxx, demonstrating their on-screen dynamic and mutual respect.
