Actor Jamie Foxx has announced plans to discuss his 2023 health scare in detail during an upcoming one-man show, “One More Chance: An Evening with Jamie Foxx.”
Foxx, who was hospitalized in Atlanta for an undisclosed medical complication in April 2023, shared the news on his Instagram account this week. The show’s promotional image features the phrase “What Had Happened Was” against a black background, suggesting a lighthearted approach to the serious topic.
In his social media post, Foxx promised that the show would blend humor, heart, and inspiration. The actor has previously hinted at the severity of his health crisis, stating at the December Critics Choice Association Awards that he “nearly lost his life” during the medical emergency.
While Foxx has kept the specifics of his condition and diagnosis private, he is now set to reveal the full details during this three-night engagement scheduled for October.
The announcement comes after months of speculation and concern from fans and the entertainment industry about Foxx’s health. The Oscar-winning actor’s hospitalization last year led to his temporary withdrawal from ongoing film projects and public appearances.
Foxx’s decision to share his experience through a live performance aligns with his background in stand-up comedy and his reputation for engaging storytelling. The show is expected to provide insights into the actor’s personal journey through his health crisis and recovery.
Dates and venue details for “One More Chance: An Evening with Jamie Foxx” have not yet been released. The entertainment industry and fans alike are anticipating this rare, personal glimpse into the life of one of Hollywood’s most versatile performers.
