While Jamie Foxx continues to recover from a “medical complication,” he still has new projects in the pipeline.
The Oscar-winning actor has shared a trailer for his upcoming Netflix movie, They Cloned Tyrone.
Foxx stars in the film alongside John Boyega and Teyonah Parris. Their three characters stumble “on the trail of an evil government conspiracy experiment” in the fantasy comedy.
Boyega spoke to Variety at a screening of the film at the American Black Film Festival this week and said Foxx was “incredibly generous with people, always full of energy, very positive” while working on the film.
“My lasting memory is that he has the ability to read six pages of new dialogue and just go, ‘Yeah, I got it,'” Boyega recalled. “I’m like, ‘What?’ How did you do that?” This is movie star stuff.”
On April 11, Foxx was hospitalized in Atlanta, Georgia, where he was filming the Netflix movie, “Back in Action.”
His family has asked for privacy as he recovers from what his adult daughter Corinne Foxx called a “medical complication.”
She tried to put an end to speculation surrounding her father’s condition with a social media post in May.
“Sad to see how the media is running wild,” wrote Corinne Foxx. “My dad has been out of the hospital for weeks and is on the mend. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone’s prayers and support! We also have an exciting job announcement next week!”
The announcement was that she and her father will host a new music-centric trivia game show that will debut in 2024.
‘They Cloned Tyrone’ premieres on Netflix next month.
