Cameron Diaz Recounts “One Guy On Set’s Levels Of Inappropriateness,” Pre-MeToo


The Back in Action actress said the MeToo movement had "changed everything."

Diaz has been away from the screen for 10 years, concentrating on family life, but was persuaded to come out of retirement to make a pair of films for streamer Netflix, her first one being action-comedy Back in Action, co-starring Jamie Foxx. She became one of Hollywood’s biggest stars, in movies including There’s Something About Mary, My Best Friend’s Wedding, the Charlie’s Angels big-screen reboot, and the festive favourite The Holiday. She also shared that she almost didn’t get her career breakthrough in The Mask, due to producers wanting Anna Nicole Smith, the late model who at the time was a much bigger name.
