Back in Action is an action comedy written by Seth Gordon (Horrible Bosses) and Brendan O'Brien and directed by Gordon.

Foxx and Diaz play Matt and Emily, former CIA spies-turned-parents of two who "are dragged back into the world of espionage when their cover is blown," an official description reads.

"We're on a mission, and we take this opportunity where people might think we're dead, to disappear off the face of the planet and start a new life and raise our family," Diaz told Netflix's Tudum.

Kyle Chandler, Glenn Close, Andrew Scott, Jamie Demetriou, McKenna Roberts and Rylan Jackson also star.

Back in Action marks Diaz's first film in nearly 10 years, and one of Foxx's first projects since his health scare in 2023. Foxx will address his health scare in the Netflix stand-up comedy special Jamie Foxx: What Happened Was..., which premieres Dec. 10.
