Diaz, 51, praised Foxx, emphasizing his talent and character, and debunked rumors of him causing her departure from acting. She admitted to some “hiccups” on set, including Foxx’s unexpected weeks-long hospitalization, but dismissed any suggestion that it influenced her decision to step away from acting.
