Cameron Diaz dazzled in white as she promoted her new film with Jamie Foxx in London on Friday after a 10-year hiatus from acting.
The actress, 52, posed alongside her co-star, 57, at Cheval Three Quays near the Tower of London, on the day their movie Back In Action lands on Netflix.
Cameron wore a cream jacket with sleeves rolled up and paired it with a matching pair of high-waisted cream trousers.
The Charlie’s Angels star completed the look with a white T-shirt and accessorised with a gold chain necklace, gold hoop earrings and a rose gold watch.
Oscar-winning actor Jamie, meanwhile, donned a thick royal blue Gant turtle-neck with a large yellow ‘G’ sтιтched on.
The star paired it with some baggy grey trousers and black platform shoes.

The duo posed on what appeared to be shattered glᴀss with the film’s тιтle printed on the carpet of the terrace which looked over the iconic Tower Bridge.
They were joined by fellow members of the Back In Action cast, including Seth Gordon and Jamie Demetriou.
The action-comedy’s release marks the end of a 10-year acting break for Cameron after the Shrek star retired following the release of Annie in 2014.
In the meantime, the actress has been investing in a number of startups and has even penned a book on ageing.
Cameron is expected to reprise her role as Princess Fiona in the upcoming Shrek 5, set for a 2026 release date.
She revealed this week that she was lured back by her close friend Jamie to star alongside him in the pair’s latest action adventure.
Appearing on the upcoming episode of The Graham Norton Show on Friday, Cameron gushed: ‘I am back all thanks to Jamie’ as she admitted she would have been a ‘fool’ not to enter back into the industry.
The star explained: ‘I had 10 years of not paying attention to anything; not accepting any advances, and then I got this script and thought that maybe it was time.

‘If I was going to leave my family for 10 hours a day I wanted to do it with the most talented man in the entertainment business.’
Expressing her graтιтude to still work in the industry she added: ‘It is a privilege to make films, and we are all so lucky to do what we do. That the door was even open for me after a decade was amazing.
‘I loved those 10 years for me and my family, but I thought, “If I let this go away, if I don’t engage again, and if I don’t give it chance, I am a fool.” It might be the beginning of something, but its here now and I am grateful for it.’
Cameron famously walked away from Hollywood in 2018 to spend more time with her rocker husband Benji Madden, 45.
The two welcomed their daughter in December 2019 and have been incredibly private about their lives as parents to their three-year-old.
The promotional shoot by Tower Bridge comes after Jamie enjoyed a star-studded evening out in London with his daughter Anelise, 16, on Thursday night as he promoted his new film.
They were pictured returning to the Chiltern Firehouse, where they may be staying, alongside the likes of Louise Redknapp and her TV writer boyfriend Drew Michael, as well as comedian Jimmy Carr.
It comes after the Ray actor revealed he thought it was a joke when doctors told him he had been out for 20 days after a stroke caused bleeding on the brain.

In Friday’s upcoming Graham Norton episode, the star speaks out about his terrifying health scare which saw him in a coma following surgery in April 2023.
Jamie said he ‘didn’t remember anything’ from the time he was rushed into A&E to when he finally came round 20 days later.
‘I was very unwell but now I am back feeling good. It makes you realise that you need people that care and love you around to get you through it.
‘I didn’t remember anything happening so when I came to 20 days later I thought I was being pranked. It was beyond crazy.’
He had been filming for Back In Action when he started experiencing a ‘bad headache’ in Atlanta and initially was given a cortisone sH๏τ, but his sister Deidra Dixon, ‘knew something was wrong’.
Deidra drove him to Atlanta’s Piedmont Hospital, where he underwent a life-saving procedure.
The family kept his health battle private at the time, with Jamie only revealing last month what really happened.
He previously revealed how he vividly remembers waking up from his coma on May 4, and being unable to walk.

Jamie has now made his return to Hollywood alongside co-star Cameron for their new film, Back In Action
He recalled: ‘When I woke up, I found myself in a wheelchair. I couldn’t walk.’
Yet Jamie didn’t want to believe he’d had a stroke and recounted his therapist telling him about his ego: ‘You need to kill the old Jamie so the new Jamie can thrive.’
He also reflected: ‘God blessed me with money and fame, but when I forgot about God, He blessed me with a stroke.’
Of his return to the public eye, Jamie told Graham: ‘I knew I had to get back and realised the way to do it was by being funny. I told so many jokes people thought I was mad, and then I would act as someone else – for three whole days I was Denzel Washington.’
And the Spider-Man star raised eyebrows when he jokingly declared that he’s done dating white women in a song on Netflix special, released last month.
He sang he’s been ‘cured’ and is ‘back on the black side of town’.
Sitting down at a piano, the Hollywood star sang: ‘Sisters, I’m here to tell you, I’ve been cured.
‘I’ve been cured of everything, no more white girls. I’m serious, no more white girls. No more white girls. No more. No more white girls.’

Jamie has had several high-profile relationships. He enjoyed a six-year romance with Katie Holmes from 2013 to 2019 (pictured: the pair in 2019)

Another said: ‘Jamie funny as s**t because he lying like hell LMFAOOOOO.’
A third added: ‘I don’t believe him. But I’m going to mind my business.’

Cameron, 52, is making her return to film after a decade-long hiatus.
In the comedic spy thriller Jamie and Cameron star as ex-CIA agents who are now married with kids.
They are drawn back into the spy business, however, but things get complicated because their children have no idea what they do for a living.
She said: ‘I am back all thanks to Jamie. I had 10 years of not paying attention to anything; not accepting any advances, and then I got this script and thought that maybe it was time. If I was going to leave my family for 10 hours a day I wanted to do it with the most talented man in the entertainment business.
