Foxx was busy filming a new movie with a recently unretired Cameron Diaz when this “medical complication,” as it has been called, occurred. The staus of the movie itself without Foxx is murky at this point. It’s still largely unclear what exactly happened, whether he was injured or was afflicted by some internal malady. But whatever the issue, seeing Foxx post publicly indicates that he is on the mend and that certainly has fans happy.
