Following a 10-year acting hiatus, Cameron Diaz is back in action in, well, Back in Action, a new Netflix action-comedy that sees her reteam with Jamie Foxx – and it's as full of crazy-looking stunts as it is meta gags.
In a nod to the Charlie's Angels star's comeback, its first trailer, which you can watch above, opens with Diaz's character Emily admitting, "Tonight, something clicked. For the first time in a really long time, I felt alive again. I felt like the bitch again," as a series of montaged scenes see her and husband Matt (Foxx) beating up a bunch of bad guys.
Later, the couple are forced to tell their children about their secret past. "Like Jason Bourne!?" one of the youngsters exclaims, as Matt snaps back: "Yeah, but we remember stuff."
"I knew you guys were lying about something," their daughter adds, "but I never thought you were cool enough to be spies."
What follows is a series of clips of Diaz and Foxx's at the center of a buttload of action, from high-speed motorcycle chases and speedboat co-opting to riding an avalanche in a deconstructed plane.
"Just like old times, baby. Just like old times!" Matt shouts, presumably another nod to Diaz's long-awaited return to the screen and their third collaboration, which follows Any Given Sunday (1999) and Annie (2014).
While none of them feature in the teaser, Kyle Chandler, Andrew Scott, Jamie Demetriou, McKenna Roberts, Rylan Jackson, and Glenn Close round out the supporting cast.
Back in Action premieres on January 17. While we wait, check out our guide to the best Netflix movies for some viewing inspiration.
