Jamie Foxx has been spotted in public for the first time since he was admitted to hospital in April.
A video published by TMZ appears to show the actor relaxing on a boat along the Chicago River as it passed by the cameraman. In the clip, Foxx can be seen waving to fans and flashing a peace sign to the camera.
Foxx was taken to hospital in Atlanta with what was described as an undisclosed medical complication during the shooting of the coming Netflix comedy Back in Action, directed by Seth Gordon.
At the time, his daughter Corinne posted on Instagram: “Luckily due to quick action and great care he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time.”
The actor, 55, followed up by sharing a note of thanks to television host Nick Cannon for filling in for him on the Beat Shazam show, writing: “Appreciate ya my boy, @nickcannon. See you all soon.”
In May, Foxx posted another message: "Appreciate all the love. Feeling blessed."
Later that month, after a period of speculation, Corinne confirmed that her father had been out of hospital recuperating for weeks, and said how sad it was to see the media “run wild”.
“In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday. Thanks for everyone's prayers and support,” she added.
Back in Action has now reportedly wrapped filming, using stand-ins and body doubles for Foxx. The film also stars Glenn Close, Andrew Scott, Jamie Demetriou and Cameron Diaz, who came out of retirement for the role, having stepped back in 2018.

Tightening the screw on rogue recruiters
The UAE overhauled the procedure to recruit housemaids and domestic workers with a law in 2017 to protect low-income labour from being exploited.
Only recruitment companies authorised by the government are permitted as part of Tadbeer, a network of labour ministry-regulated centres.
A contract must be drawn up for domestic workers, the wages and job offer clearly stating the nature of work.
The contract stating the wages, work entailed and accommodation must be sent to the employee in their home country before they depart for the UAE.
The contract will be signed by the employer and employee when the domestic worker arrives in the UAE.
Only recruitment agencies registered with the ministry can undertake recruitment and employment applications for domestic workers.
Penalties for illegal recruitment in the UAE include fines of up to Dh100,000 and imprisonment
But agents not authorised by the government sidestep the law by illegally getting women into the country on visit visas.
