Cameron Diaz will return to acting after 8 years: only an actor could make it possible

Between the 1990s and 2000s, Cameron Diaz became one of Hollywood’s favorite actresses. However, from one moment to another and without prior announcement, her name stopped appearing on movie billboards.

In fact, the last film she made was ‘Annie,’ a 2014 musical that reimagined the classic story of the redheaded orphan.

Her departure from Hollywood was silent: although many of her fans wondered why they no longer saw her, the star kept her reasons to herself.

In fact, it was not until 2018 (four years after his last film) that he confirmed his retirement, although he did not deny the possibility of returning one day.

In an interview with comedian Kevin Hart in August 2021, Cameron Diaz explained that when he turned 40, he realized that “every aspect” of his life, “from finances to who I am as a human” was being handled by someone else.

In particular, he felt that he had abandoned his spirituality.

In the time she has been away from Hollywood, the actress launched her own brand of wine, called Avaline, married musician Benji Madden and, in 2020, became the mother of a girl.

In February 2021, in an interview with Bruce Bozzi on SiriusXM’s, the diva pointed out that “I can’t imagine” being the mother of a baby and having to appear on the recording set for more than 12 hours a day.

Still, he left the door open to the possibility of returning to the big screen:

Finally, the day came when the actress stepped on the recording studios again. The news came thanks to Jamie Foxx, with whom she shared scenes in the movies ‘Any Given Sunday’ and ‘Annie’.

The histrión published on his social networks an audio of a call he made to Cameron Díaz, in which she lets him know that she was not sure how to return to the public scene. Thinking of helping her, he put her in touch with footballer Tom Brady, who joked that he is “relatively successful at ‘un-retiring’” from a career.

In this way, we also know that Cameron Diaz’s next film will be titled ‘Back In Action’, it will be part of the Netflix catalog and production will begin “later in the year”.

On his Instagram account, Cameron Diaz wrote: “Jamie Foxx, only you could bring me back to action! I can’t wait, it’s going to be a blast.”

The actress made her way into Hollywood with ‘La Mascara’, a film that premiered in 1994 and in which she acted alongside Jim Carey.

Three years later, he demonstrated his chameleon skills with the romantic comedy ‘My Best Friend’s Wedding’, in which he starred alongside Julia Roberts, Dermont Mulroney and Rupert Everett.

In 2000, ‘Charlie’s Angels’ was released, which listed it as one of the favorite action movies.

6 years later, he starred in ‘The rest’, a romantic story in which he changes his life with a woman from the United Kingdom and ends up falling in love with a local man.

Without a doubt, one of Cameron Díaz’s most dramatic films is ‘The most difficult decision’, where she played a mother whose youngest daughter sues her for forcing her to be a blood and organ donor for her other sick daughter.
