On April 13, the Oscar-winning actor's daughter Corinne Foxx revealed he experienced a medical complication and is recovering.

She did not share details of Foxx's condition or what led to his health emergency.

"Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time," the statement read.

Foxx has been in Atlanta, Georgia, filming an upcoming Netflix comedy movie with Cameron Diaz, “Back in Action”. Directed by “Horrible Bosses” helmer Seth Gordon, it also stars Glenn Close, “Fleabag” priest Andrew Scott and comedian Jamie Demetriou.

Diaz came “out of retirement” for the project, her first in almost a decade.

A source previously said that the medical incident did not happen on the set and Foxx was not transported by emergency vehicle to the hospital.

A separate source close to the production of the movie disclosed that Back in Action's set was "shut down" following the actor's health scare. Filming resumed later using a stand-in for Foxx on set.

"Back in Action" continued filming with stand-ins and body doubles for Foxx, and has reportedly wrapped.
