Tom Brady convinces Cameron Diaz to come out of retirement and star in a Netflix movie
The 49-year-old actress is giving Hollywood one more chance to star alongside Jamie Foxx
Cameron Diaz is back, thanks to Tom Brady and Jamie Foxx. The 49-year-old actress is giving Hollywood one more chance to star alongside Foxx in Netflix’s upcoming action-comedy Back in Action.
The last time Diaz and Foxx worked was on the 2014’s Annie remake. The musical comedy film was Cameron’s final film role before saying goodbye to the movie sets.
To convince Diaz to return, Foxx called Diaz on a three-way with Brady, who retired from the NFL’S Tampa Bay Buccaneers and 40 days later rejoined. “I was talking to Jamie, and he said you needed a few tips on how to un-retire,” Brady says. “I’m relatively successful at un-retiring.”
