Cameron Diaz to come out of retirement
Diaz has not appeared in a feature film since 2014's Annie, which also starred Foxx.
Following that decision, she has discussed in numerous interviews the reasoning for her retirement, including excessive travelling and wanting to be with her family more often. The actress was convinced to come out of her retirement by Foxx, who announced her involvement with Back in Action via a Tweet.
Foxx put Diaz in touch with Tom Brady, the legendary NFL star who himself came out of retirement recently.
Back in Action will be produced for Netflix and will be directed by Horrible Bosses helmer Seth Gordon.
