As of July 6, Jamie Foxx has the number one movie on Netflix in the US, as subscribers have been revisiting his 2013 action movie alongside Channing Tatum, White House Down. Considering the movie is 10 years old and wasn't part of what's new on Netflix in July, the surge for the movie has caught some by surprise.
If we had to hypothesize, we'd say there are a couple of contributing factors to White House Down's recent rise in popularity. The first being that Foxx is recovering from a health scare from earlier in 2023, so fans may be wanting to revisit some of the Oscar-winning actor's work. The other is that White House Down's journey to the top spot on the streaming service coincided with the Fourth of July holiday, so many may have wanted to watch the movie's fireworks as part of their celebration.
