Foxx revealed on Twitter that the production will kick off this year. It also celebrated Diaz's return by posting a clip with the actor on Twitter.
In the clip Diaz said, "I feel excited but, I don't know how to do this, you know?"

"I was talking to Jamie and he said you need a few tips on how to un-retire. I'm relatively successful at un-retiring," Brady joked.
Though Diaz took a break from Hollywood, she was working on her organic wine label.
Last year, Diaz stated that, as a mother, it is unimaginable for her to spend "16 hours a day" on a movie set.
"Will I ever make a movie again? I'm not looking to, but will I? I don't know. I have no idea. Maybe. Never say never," she said during that time.
Cameron Diaz tied the knot with singer Benji Madden in 2015. The couple welcomed their daughter Raddix on 30 December, 2019.
