Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz topped Netflix’s charts this week with their new spy movie, “Back in Action.” Deadline reports that from January 13 to 19, the film garnered an impressive 46.8 million views,

Back In Action marks Jamie Foxx’s second Netflix release since being hospitalized after falling ill in April 2023. In December 2024, the Texas native released the Netflix comedy special, What Had Happened Was, his first stand-up film in over two decades.

Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz's new movie 'Back in Action' debuted with 46.8 million views in its opening weekend on Netflix.

You'll see the "third-act 'twist' coming a mile off", said Ben Travis in Empire, and Andrew Scott and Kyle Chandler are "wasted in insubstantial roles". But Back in Action is a fun, "fizzily watchable" treat. A word to Diaz: "Next time don't leave it so long, eh?"

Back in Action is headlined by Cameron Diaz's comeback after 11 years away from acting, but Netflix's most viewed weekend premiere in nearly three years is also Seth Gordon's return to feature filmmaking.
