- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Now that he's nearly made a full recovery, Jamie Foxx is ready to get back to work.
The multi-hyphenate shared an update with fans on Instagram with a promotional photo of himself outside Las Vegas' ARIA Resort & Casino, posing in a dark green suit while sitting on a gold Formula One car with the BetMGM logo, an online sports betting company with an exclusive partnership with MGM Resort that Foxx is a brand ambassador for.
Foxx captioned the image, "Thankful for my @betmgm family and a great few nights in Vegas. We got BIG things coming soon 🦊."
His daughter Corinne accompanied him, sharing on her Instagram Story a photo of herself sitting next to her dad on the same Formula One car. She captioned it, "Year 4 of @betmgm in the works 💪🏾 so proud of you always Dad @iamjamiefoxx ❤️."
His fans took to the comments with mixed emotions and reactions to the news that Fox is back in business following his mysterious medical situation.
"So betMGM is more important that your health. Should have just stayed hidden until you were well. That was major and I'd think you'd be thanking God you're alive rather than trying to promote all this stuff that's not important," someone opined.
Others refused to believe the actor has recovered. "Might be a AI generated picture of Jamie Foxx. I don't know what to believe," read a comment. Another fan wrote, "This picture was taken back in December 2021 based on the photographer’s Instagram profile. So this ISN’T a recent image 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩."
The latter comment is in reference to a picture photographer Erik Umphery took two years prior, in which Foxx posed in a similar outfit, though it does not appear to be from the same night.

Some fans came to the defense, noting that Foxx gets to decide what to share with fans.
"It's okay to keep your personal life, personal. Everything ain’t for the world. What matters is that he's better and alive! I am happy for this multitalented legend 🙌," wrote a fan. Another commented, "Glad to see you healthy and working. God is good."
The 55-year-old's tease of "big things" on the way comes after a source close to the actor told ET that he "has been talking to people about his work projects and looking forward to the future," adding that Foxx "feels grateful that his recovery has been going well."
The They Cloned Tyrone star and producer had been reportedly recovering from his undisclosed health issues at a medical rehabilitation facility in Chicago for the past couple of months. His first major public outing since his medical emergency was on July 9, where he was seen in high spirits on a yacht, waving at onlookers.
On the following day, a fan shared a clip showing Foxx returning her mom's bag after finding it. The fan wrote, "Mom lost her bag in Chicago today Jamie fox found it and brought it to her and he said he feels good y’all god is good 🙏🏾."
