The cause for Foxx’s hospitalization and medical emergency remain undisclosed, but his daughter Corrine Foxx confirmed that he experienced a “medical complication” on April 11th. Corrine and Foxx’s family had expressed their gratitude towards the quick actions and great care that he received from medical professionals, which they claimed helped him begin his recovery process.

At the time of his hospitalization, Jamie Foxx was filming the Netflix action comedy “Back in Action” in Atlanta alongside Cameron Diaz. The project is Diaz’s highly-anticipated return to acting, and it was directed by “Horrible Bosses” helmer Seth Gordon. Despite Foxx’s hospitalization, production on “Back in Action” continued with the use of stunt doubles and body doubles in place of Foxx on set. The project has reportedly wrapped production.

Foxx also thanked Nick Cannon in an Instagram story for taking over the hosting duties of the Fox game show “Beat Shazam” temporarily. Foxx launched the show as host and executive producer in 2017, and his daughter Corinne is a DJ on the show. Kelly Osbourne is temporarily replacing her while Foxx continues his recovery.
