Jamie Foxx couldn’t hide his excitement when he spoke to Netflix: “Cameron Diaz: Is she back?” Well, the answer is yes—and she’s coming back in a big way.
What’s Back in Action About?
Back in Action is an action-comedy movie where Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx star as Emily and Matt, a happily married couple with a secret – they used to work for the CIA. They then return to tried-and-tested normal, risking returning to living a normal life to raise their family when their cover is finally blown after several years of avoiding attention. Their glad, peaceful existence does not last long and turns into a complete mess as they have to return to a life of spying.
According to Diaz, the plot takes the characters on an exciting and dangerous adventure: “We are on a mission and this time when people will think that we are out of business, we will imitate the myth of death and start a new life and bring up a family.” But it is never easy to let go of the past and, before long, the two are back in the spy business and dealing with explosive and action-oriented situations.
The film is by Seth Gordon, who is the director of Horrible Bosses and Baywatch, and the script for the movie was written by Gordon and Brendan O’Brien. The film is a mix of action, comedy, and emotion, which gives people a reason to look forward to seeing the movie in 2024.
