Cameron Diaz is back on screens after almost ten years since her last film appearance, this time with co-star Jamie Foxx for the new Netflix original film, Back in Action.

“Everybody asks me the question: ‘Is Cameron Diaz coming back?’” Foxx told Netflix. The answer? Yes, and with a vengeance. In Back in Action, Foxx and Diaz play seemingly average parents with a big secret: They used to be incredibly skilled secret agents.

“We’re on a mission, and we take this opportunity where people might think we’re dead, to disappear off the face of the planet and start a new life and raise our family,” Diaz told Netflix. Of course, their old life inevitably comes a-knocking. Soon, the two are dragged back into the career they left behind, with explosive results.

• Jamie Foxx (They Cloned Tyrone, Day Shift)
