Cameron Diaz recently decided to put a stop to her retirement from acting, and she’s currently eying a role in another high-profile project. The Golden Globe-nominated actress is in talks to join Keanu Reeves in Jonah Hill’s dark comedy Outcome.
Outcome will center on a damaged Hollywood star Reef (Keanu Reeves), who “must dive into the dark depths of his past to confront his demons and make amends after he is extorted with a mysterious video clip from his past.”
In addition to directing this dark comedy for Apple, Hill co-wrote the script with Ezra Woods. He’s also coming on board as one of the producers alongside Matt Dines and Ali Goodwin under their Strong Baby banner.
Outcome marks Diaz’s second project since she decided to put a stop to her hiatus from acting. She’ll make a comeback with the role in Netflix’s action-comedy Back in Action alongside Jamie Foxx later this year.
Diaz has a pretty impressive track record as a comedy actress, and her filmography includes such hits as Bad Teacher, The Mask, and There’s Something About Mary. She’s been on hiatus since starring in Annie in 2014, and she used this break to focus on her work as an entrepreneur and a health book author.
