What happened to Jamie Foxx? : the dramatic timeline of a month in suspense

james lebron , Kerry Washington , kevin hart Martin Lawrence and Taraji P. Henson are some of the colleagues and friends who wished Jamie Foxx a speedy recovery. A significant portion of the film and entertainment world has turned to the Oscar-winning actor’s support for Ray (2004), which today marks one month since it was reported that he had been hospitalized for an undisclosed medical condition.

Concretely, it was his eldest daughter who on April 12 told via his social networks that the interpreter had suffered “a medical complication ” the day before. “Fortunately, thanks to quick action and great care, he is already on the road to recovery”, added Corinne Foxx, without specifying what had caused his decompensation, but asking for respect privacy on behalf of his family.

His closest entourage kept the discretion of rigor, even if the signals that triggered the alarm of his fans did not fail. We pray for your healing in the name of Jesus! Sending you all the love in the world, Jamie!” Jennifer Hudson, his co-star in the film, wrote two days later. dream girls (2006). In contrast, a source told CNN he was at a medical facility in Georgia, where “they’re running tests on him and still trying to figure out what exactly happened.”

The actor was in this state of his country because he was filming the Netflix movie Back to action. Directed by Seth Gordon (I want to kill my boss), comedy marks the return to cinema of Cameron Diaz in his first role since the creation of the musical Anne in 2014, also with Foxx in its cast. Reports indicate that it would have been instrumental insofar as the actress of The mask (1994) reportedly agreed to join the project, which also includes Glenn Close, Kyle Chandler and Andrew Scott in its cast.

Netflix resisted sharing a public statement, but filming was reportedly halted the same day the actor’s hospitalization was reported, even though the incident hadn’t happened during a work day on the plateau. Anyway, filming would have resumed without his presence five days later. According to the leaked photos, Diaz would have been accompanied by two people who would have replaced him: a stunt double and a photography double. At the moment, there has been no talk of the possibility of looking for a replacement to replace him permanently.

Different is the case of Beat Shazam, a game show on the Fox network in which he has been a presenter since his debut in 2017. The station has confirmed that the sixth season of space, which will begin next Tuesday 23rd, will star Nick Cannon in his role. “Everyone at Fox Entertainment We wish Jamie the best as he continues his recovery. and we greatly appreciate Nick’s willingness to step up and help this summer,” the panel said.

The very day of this announcement, the star of Django Unchained (2012) broke his silence, sharing an image on his networks. “I appreciate all the love! I feel blessed,” he posted on his Instagram, receiving love from the likes of Halle Berry and Jurnee Smollett.

Amid uncertainty over his condition, a source told People last Friday that he ‘is not in a life-threatening situation’ and it has been suggested he ‘maintains his level low stress”. “What happened to him medically is serious enough to keep him in hospital,” added the same person, who preferred to remain anonymous.

Responding to speculation that painted a fatalistic picture (yesterday it was said that those close to him ‘hoped the actor would make a full recovery, but are preparing for the worst’), Corinne Foxx today posted a message rebutting that version . “My dad’s been out of the hospital for weeks now, recovering . In fact, I was playing pickleball yesterday!

Since the start of the pandemic, Jamie Foxx has shown signs of activity almost exclusively through Netflix productions. And it will continue to be so for the foreseeable future. After the release of the science fiction film Project Power (2020), the series canceled Dad, stop embarrassing me! (2021) and horror-comedy Day shift (2022), this July 21 arrives on the platform with Tyrone’s Cloneby director Juel Taylor.

Defined as a satire that pays homage to 70s Blaxploitation cinema , the film stars a drug dealer (John Boyega), a prostitute (Teyonah Parris) and a pimp (Foxx). A trio who enter a lab where clones are being made as part of a grand plot to keep black people docile.

During a chat with Entertainment Weekly, Boyega detailed the performer’s camaraderie. “He invited all of us into his home, he took us through his initiation process, which is basically vibrating, talking, getting to know each other. We trust Jamie.”
