Foxx’s upcoming movie will show him playing alongside Cameron Diaz, whose latest project took place back in 2014. She spoke of stepping down from Hollywood and filming, and her return to the big screen seems to be influenced by Foxx who is said to be the driving force behind her decision to join him in their current project.
It remains unknown if Foxx’s condition will affect the filming schedule.
We are glad Foxx is recovering from the health scare he experienced.
