We do not exactly know what medical condition Foxx was exactly facing,  but as per the sources during the time of his hospitalization, people were saying that he is doing good and his health has also been improving, while the doctors were trying their best to get to the root of the problem.

Corinne Foxx, the actor’s daughter had initially announced that the situation was a bit complicated, and they would request the media and common people to have their privacy given. But didn’t provide any further information beyond that.

Despite being active on Instagram and thanking his followers for their encouragement and well wishes, Foxx has not made an appearance in front of the public since his medical emergency.

Because of Foxx’s acute health problem, the makers of his next movie Back in Action chose to wrap up filming without him. To finish Jamie’s final scenes with Cameron Diaz, they utilised a body duplicate. Foxx’s team has been mum about his health, but friends and admirers of the actor have been flooding social media with messages of encouragement.
