Cameron Diaz has returned to acting for the new action comedy Back In Action, but what songs feature in the film? Read on for the full list.
The star of There’s Something About Mary and The Holiday retired from the screen in 2014 after appearing in the film Annie to focus on her family.
But now she is back starring opposite Jamie Foxx in Back In Action, where the two stars play a pair of former CIA spies who are brought back into service when their identities are exposed.
The film, directed by Seth Gordon (Horrible Bosses, Baywatch) and based on a screenplay by Gordon and Brendan O’Brien, is streaming on Netflix as of January 17.
Glenn Close plays Diaz’s character’s mother, while Kyle Chandler, Andrew Scott and Jamie Demetriou also star.
Diaz has spoken recently about her decision to return, indicating that she is unlikely to be seen in any romcoms going forward, despite having established her reputation in the genre. “No more rom-coms, only mom-coms,” she said.
Last year, she spoke about why she stepped away from acting, saying: “It felt like something I had to do to reclaim my own life”.
