More details about Netflix's Back in Action
Aptly titled Back in Action, the film marks Cameron Diaz's long-awaited return to Hollywood after eight years. The movie also features Jamie Foxx, who earlier shared an audio clip from a phone call with Diaz announcing her Hollywood comeback on Twitter. The phone call also involved NFL legend Tom Brady, whom Foxx referred to as the ''G.O.A.T.'' on the call. Brady then tells Diaz that Fox told him she needed ''a few tips on how to un-retire'' and that he's ''relatively successful at un-retiring.'' To which Diaz replies, ''Honestly... exactly what I needed.''
Details about the film are not known at this point. The movie is helmed by Seth Gordon of Horrible Bosses fame, who wrote the script with Brendan O'Brien. Jamie Foxx serves as one of the executive producers along with Datari Turner, O'Brien, and Mark McNair. The film is produced by Beau Bauman for Good One Productions and Gordon for Exhibit A. Reportedly, filming is expected to kick-off sometime later this year.
