This is the first official video of himself he has shared since falling ill.
Foxx, 55, has been keeping a low profile and released few details about his health status in recent months, only recently being spotted out in public.
He did not divulge the nature of his medical crisis in the video, explaining he wanted to keep his recovery private.
"I went through something that I thought I would never, ever go through," he said.
"I just didn't want you to see me like that. I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, a television show. I just didn't want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was going to make it through."
His movie, They Cloned Tyrone, was recently released on Netflix.
