After 8 years of separation, actress Cameron Diaz is making movies again.
Diaz, who officially confirmed her retirement from Hollywood in 2018, will star in the new Netflix movie "Back in Action," alongside Jamie Foxx. The two previously starred together in "Annie" in 2014, Diaz's last appearance in a feature film.
"(Jamie Foxx) only you can put me back in action," the actress wrote on Instagram after the announcement.
Netflix has not yet set a release date for the film, but Foxx wrote on Twitter that production will begin this year.
Foxx celebrated Diaz's comeback on Twitter, posting a recording of the two talking about her comeback.

Although not as active in Hollywood in recent years, Diaz remained busy launching a line of organic wines.
Last year, Diaz stated that, as a mother, she could no longer imagine being in a movie set for 16 hours a day.
Diaz married Good Charlotte singer Benji Madden in 2015, and the two have a child together, Raddix, born in 2020.
