In the past few days the biggest headline is his surprise public appearance at the Critics Choice celebration his first such outing since his medical emergency which occurred in April 2023.

Later this month Foxx is due to star alongside Cameron Diaz in the action-comedy Back in Action—an especially biographically significant project since it was interrupted by his stroke and marks Diaz’s own highly anticipated return to film. In behind-the-scenes interviews Foxx and Diaz have been seen joking and reminiscing about their 25-year friendship in moments that have gone viral.
