As a devoted cinema enthusiast, it’s been over a decade since I last caught Cameron Diaz on the silver screen – but the allure of reprising my role as one of Charlie’s Angels in the Netflix action-comedy “Back in Action” was simply irresistible. I couldn’t resist the call to return and bring some fun and action back into movie theaters!
In the movie, she shares the screen with Jamie Foxx – interestingly enough, he was in her earlier film from 2014 titled Annie – portraying a married duo whose past as CIA operatives unexpectedly resurfaces fifteen years after their final operation.

Cameron Diaz plays Emily
A woman who was once a CIA agent, chose a peaceful domestic life upon becoming a mother, but finds herself compelled to return to dangerous missions after fifteen years due to an urgent assignment.
Apart from her iconic role as Tina Carlyle in The Mask, Cameron Diaz also shone in other notable movies such as She’s the One, My Best Friend’s Wedding, There’s Something About Mary, Being John Malkovich, Charlie’s Angels, Vanilla Sky, Gangs of New York, and the Shrek series where she voiced Princess Fiona.
After starring in movies like What Happens in Vegas, Bad Teacher, and What to Expect When You’re Expecting, I took a break from acting following my portrayal of Miss Hannigan in the 2014 remake of Annie. Now, it’s been quite some time since then, but here I am back on the big screen again.
Jamie Foxx plays Matt
In my perspective, “Who is Matt?” refers to a character who shares Emily’s professional and personal world, finding himself thrust back into the cloak-and-dagger realm of espionage once more.
Besides the roles you’re familiar with, Jamie Foxx has also starred in other notable movies such as Collateral, Ray, and Just Mercy. He continues to be a prominent figure in Hollywood.
Recent credits include They Cloned Tyrone, The Burial and Not Another Church Movie.
Glenn Close plays Ginny
Who is Ginny? Emily’s estranged mother – who has her own history in the secret services.
Apart from her iconic roles in “The Big Chill,” “Fatal Attraction,” “Dangerous Liaisons,” “The Wife,” “Guardians of the Galaxy,” and “101 Dalmatians,” among others, Glenn Close has an extensive body of work. She is also recognized for having been nominated for eight Oscars, placing her among the five most-nominated actresses in history, although she has yet to take home the award.
Kyle Chandler plays Chuck
What about this character, Chuck? He was previously involved with Matt and Emily at the CIA, and now he’s reinstating them for a fresh assignment together.
Has Kyle Chandler been in anything else apart from Friday Night Lights? Yes, he has also played significant roles in movies such as King Kong, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Super 8, Argo, Zero Dark Thirty, The Wolf of Wall Street, Carol, Manchester by the Sea, Game Night, First Man, and Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
Andrew Scott plays Baron
In their past, there was an individual known as Baron, who was an MI6 agent. He collaborated with Emily and Matt, and he’s harbored feelings for Emily for quite some time.
Is there anything else that Andrew Scott is recognized for acting in besides his BAFTA-winning portrayal of Moriarty in Sherlock, his role as the ‘Hot Priest’ in Fleabag, and his appearances in films like Pride, Spectre, 1917, All of Us Strangers, and Ripley on Netflix?
Jamie Demetriou plays Nigel
Who is Nigel, you ask? He’s Ginny’s significantly younger love interest, with a penchant for self-proclaiming his covert operative abilities.
Has Jamie Demetriou appeared in anything else besides Stath Lets Flats, Fleabag, The Afterparty, Barbie, Paddington 2, Cruella, and Catherine Called Birdy?
McKenna Roberts plays Alice
Who might Alice be described as? The defiant teenager of Emily and Matt, oblivious to their past lives.
Has McKenna Roberts appeared in any other productions aside from these mentioned?
Rylan Jackson plays Leo
Who is Leo? Emily and Matt’s youngest child, who is also not clued in on their time as spies.
Has Rylan Jackson appeared in any other notable productions aside from Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves?
