Back in Action

Written by Seth Gordon, Brendan O’Brien 

Starring Cameron Diaz, Jamie Foxx, Glenn Close 

Release Date January 17th, 2025 

Published January 21st, 2025 

Back in Action stars Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx as Emily and Matt, CIA partners who fall in love while working on an op. Naturally, this op goes sideways and the two end up nearly dying. This puts a scare into them both as Emily is pregnant. With their colleagues and enemies assuming that they are dead, the two use the opportunity to disappear and start a new life in the suburbs, raising kids, getting jobs, and pursuing hobbies like normal, everyday Americans. 

This actually works out for a surprisingly long while, especially in the social media and surveillance era, no one stumbles over them still being alive for more than 15 years. Unfortunately, with their 15 year old daughter, Alice (McKenna Roberts), acting out and finding trouble in a nightclub, mom and dad’s CIA skills come into play and he couple are caught on camera beating up leering creeps in a video that ends up going viral.
