Oscar-winning US actor Jamie Foxx is out of hospital and recuperating from an unspecified medical emergency, his daughter and publicist said Friday.
Last month, the 55-year-old Foxx was rushed to a medical facility in the state of Georgia, where he was filming a Netflix movie at the time.
No details on his medical condition had been divulged since, leading to some speculation that the โDjango Unchainedโ star could be deteriorating.
But Corinne Foxx dispelled those rumors in an Instagram post Friday.
โSad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday!โ she wrote.
Foxxโs publicist confirmed the news to AFP, without providing further detail.
Foxx, an actor, comedian and Grammy-winning singer, won an Academy Award in 2005 for the Ray Charles musical biopic โRay,โ and was also Oscar-nominated for โCollateralโ that same year.
He was recently filming โBack in Action,โ co-starring Cameron Diaz, in Georgia.
In her initial post April 12, Corinne Foxx wrote that her father had โexperienced a medical complicationโ but โdue to quick action and great care he is already on his way to recovery.โ
Foxx himself last week posted a message on the social media platform, simply reading: โAppreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed.โ
