Jamie Foxx is still recovering from a stroke that left him partially paralyzed and blind, according to reports.
Foxx, 55, missed the Miami Beach premiere of his Netflix movie, “They Cloned Tyrone,” which is a sci-fi comedy drama about a government conspiracy.
His co-stars wished Foxx a speedy recovery, but they’re concerned that he hasn’t responded to recent phone calls.
“I wanted him to show up here, but you know, I know he’s dealing with what he’s dealing with, and we just wish him all the best,” actor John Boyega told Entertainment Tonight.
“I’ve been calling, I’m just going to keep on calling. He better pick up. Come on, Jamie!” Boyega added.
Foxx produced the Netflix film in addition to starring in the flick as Slick Charles.
He reportedly suffered a stroke in early April and has been out of the public eye since then. Updates about his condition have been sporadic and inaccurate.
“They Cloned Tyrone” director Juel Taylor said he’s “definitely” sending his “thoughts and prayers” to Foxx.
Co-star Teyonah Parris said, “We had so much fun, and he’s just such a lively person… he brings such an energy to the set.”
She added:
“I wish Jamie all the recovery and healing. He’s just so amazing. It was just such an honor to work with him. He’s so generous as an actor and as a human, along with John. I got lucky to be able to work with such dope men on this project and dope men of color, that it was just so much fun.”
