The teaser trailer for the action/thriller movie was released early Friday morning. In the movie Diaz and Foxx star as a pair of ex-CIA agents turned suburban parents who are unexpectedly dragged back into their former life.
When Netflix announced Diaz’s return to the screen back in 2022, it was revealed that fans had “an unexpected person to thank for getting her back in action.”
It turned out to be NFL star Tom Brady who had convinced The Other Woman star to make her long-awaited comeback.
