Jamie Foxx brought his 16-year-old daughter Anelise Bishop as his plus one to the premiere of the Netflix film Back In Action on Wednesday night.

The beloved actor, 57, posed up with teen on the red carpet before heading inside the Zoo Palast theater in Berlin, Germany.

At one point, the father-daughter duo stopped to share a warm hug in front of the cameras.

Foxx — who stars opposite Cameron Diaz in the new action-comedy out January 17 — looked dapper in a black blazer with striped trim.

He completed his stylish red carpet outfit with black trousers, a white ʙuттon-up shirt and a black bow tie.

The Oscar-winner accessorized with designer sunglᴀsses and a black and white patterned pocket square.

Anelise — whom Foxx shares with ex-girlfriend Kristin Grannis — cut a quirky figure in a gray plaid suit.

She styled it with a blue and white ʙuттon-up shirt, a brown satin bow tie and brown leather loafers.

Anelise had a fringed suede satchel slung across her body and retro-inspired round sunglᴀsses over her eyes.

The teen looked proud of her father, who suffered a stroke caused by a bleed on the brain in April 2023. The terrifying ordeal caused Foxx to lose his memory for 20 days as he remained in a coma.

Foxx detailed the dramatic health scare — after keeping it private for over a year — in his Netflix special, Jamie Foxx: What Happened Was…, which was released in December.

In the hour-long special, Foxx said that his daughter Anelise was his ‘spiritual defibrillator’ as he credited her for saving his life.

He began: ‘They said at one point, the first 15 days, they thought they were going to lose me because my vitals were out of control.

‘There was a 13 or 14 day period where they said, ‘We’ve gotta keep him calm and we’ve given him every medication that they could. It’s not working, we gotta keep him calm because his vitals are so high we’re going to lose him.’

‘Do you know what the worst thing to have in a hospital room when you’re trying to keep calm? Black family members.

‘That’s when a miracle happened, and that miracle was working through my youngest daughter.’

Jamie said that Anelise, who he shares with psycH๏τherapist Kristin Grannis, snuck into my hospital room with her guitar.

He continued: ‘They said when she was playing, my vitals went down.

‘The nurses at the nurses station were baffled. Like, ‘Wow what did they give him?’

‘They rushed into the room and she said, ‘Ssh. I got him.’

‘Do you know what I found out? That God was in that guitar. That’s my spiritual defibrillator.’

During this heartfelt moment, Anelise came out onto the stage with her guitar.

‘Thank you much for stepping up when all was lost,’ Jamie said.

‘You had to make it because I always dreamed that we’d perform together on stage one day,’ she replied.

Along with Anelise, Foxx is also dad to model daughter Corinne, 30, whom he shares with ex-partner Connie Kline.

Foxx reunited with Back In Action co-star Cameron Diaz at Wednesday’s big premiere in Berlin.

It marked the Charlie’s Angels actress’ first red carpet appearance in five years.

She famously stepped away from the spotlight a decade ago to focus on building a family with husband Benji Madden, 45.

For the premiere, Cameron turned heads in a sheer black blouse paired with a sleek black tank top, allowing her natural beauty to take center stage.

She accessorized with high-waisted jeans and classic penny loafers, while a long black trench coat with a subtle iridescent sheen added an air of sophistication and drama to her look.

The new action comedy, directed by Seth Gordon, 48, serves as a comeback for both Jamie and Cameron as Jamie suffered a stroke in 2023 and Cameron quit acting for family reasons in 2014.

Previously Diaz told Empire she returned to acting purely to work with Jamie again following Any Given Sunday and Annie.

She said: ‘I thought that if I was going to come back and do a movie, the only person I’d come back and do it with would be this guy (Foxx).’

‘Seriously. I had other opportunities along the way and I was always saying “No. I’m not doing it, I’ve told you… What? Jamie asked? Jamie? Oh, I can do a movie with Jamie!”‘

The cast list for the film also includes Kyle Chandler, Glenn, Andrew Scott, Jamie Demetriou, Jamie Demetriou, and Rylan Jackson.
