About Back in Action Movie:
In June 2022, it was reported that Cameron Diaz was coming out of retirement for a Seth Gordon and Brendan O’Brien penned action comedy entitled Back in Action, also set to star Jamie Foxx.
The film marks Cameron Diaz’s first Netflix film as well as her first acting role in 11 years. For Jamie Foxx, it’s his fourth collaboration with Netflix, following They Cloned Tyrone (2023), Project Power (2020), and Day Shift (2022).
This is the third movie to co-star Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz after Any Given Sunday (1999) and Annie (2014).
In August 2022, Foxx spoke about persuading Diaz (whose last film prior to her retirement in 2014 was Annie, which he also starred in) to join the cast.
Principal photography took place in London from December 2, 2022, to March 9, 2023. In late February 2023, Diaz shot scenes at the River Thames. Filming in Atlanta began on March 27 and wrapped in late April. In mid-April, while Foxx was hospitalized for a medical emergency, body doubles were used to film his remaining scenes.
Back in Action was released by Netflix on January 17, 2025. Initially, it is set to be released on November 15, 2024, before finalizing the current date.
The film amassed 46.8 million views in its first three days, giving it the biggest opening weekend for an English-language Netflix film since The Adam Project (2022).
