“Back in Action” is Diaz’s first film role since her portrayal of Miss Hannigan in the 2014 adaptation of “Annie,” which also starred Foxx. She formally announced her Hollywood retirement in 2018, and has since welcomed two children with musician Benji Madden, her husband of nine years.

The star-studded cast includes Kyle Chandler, Glenn Close, Andrew Scott, Jamie Demetriou, McKenna Roberts and Rylan Jackson. The movie is directed by Seth Gordon, who previously directed “Horrible Bosses” and “Baywatch.” Gordon co-wrote the script alongside Brendan O’Brien, one of the co-writers of “Neighbors.”
