Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx are officially, finally, back in action!
Months after the co-stars halted production on their upcoming Netflix film, Back in Action, after the Django Unchained actor suffered from an undisclosed medical emergency, the two have returned to set.
In April, Jamie was rushed to the hospital and treated there for several weeks, and though he never disclosed the debilitating health ailment, he has been slowly inching back towards the spotlight.
Now, both him and Cameron were spotted over the weekend back on set in Atlanta, Georgia, over one year since they first started production in December 2022.
This marks Cameron's first return to acting since previously announcing she would be retiring from the industry. Her last film in 2014, Annie, also starred Jamie, as well as Bobby Cannavale, Rose Byrne, Quvenzhané Wallis, among others.
Jamie made his first public appearance after his health scare at the end of last year, for the Critics Choice Association's Celebration of Cinema and Television: Honoring Black, Latino and AAPI Achievements.

It was his daughter Corinne Fox who first shared news of her dad's medical emergency back in April, sharing a statement on Instagram which read: "We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday. Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery… We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time."
