Cameron Diaz has continued to shoot scenes for Back In Action with a body double
Earlier this week Cameron Diaz was spotted with her husband Benji Madden and daughter Raddix in New York.
Diaz has continued to shoot scenes for Back In Action without Foxx and with a body double.
The film has been marketed as the return to acting for Diaz, whom he helped to lure out of retirement.
The movie has reportedly suffered from a string of other setbacks – including Foxx having an ‘absolute meltdown’ while shooting in the UK.
He allegedly booted an executive producer from the project, along with two directors and even his own driver.
There has been no word yet on when he will be able to leave the hospital or get back to filming.
