When Cameron Diaz stepped onto the purple carpet on the Berlin premiere of Again in Motion final evening, it marked a momentous event: the top of a ten-year hiatus from Hollywood—and a brand new sartorial period, maybe.
For her much-anticipated return, Diaz eschewed the over-the-top glamour of her blockbuster heyday for a glance that exuded the grungy sophistication of her host metropolis. Choosing a black-on-black look by Gucci, the actress wore high-rise saggy denims in a deep wash paired with a sheer shirt and penny loafers that supplied a flexible base for the star of the look: a sweeping tailor-made wool coat adorned with the home’s signature monogram.
Including a pop of color, her daring pink lip, dewy blush and softly tousled ponytail gave the impression a contact of timeless Hollywood attract.
The premiere marked Diaz’s first since Annie in 2014, after which she famously retired from acting.
For a star who as soon as commanded the display screen in movies starting from the irreverent Charlie’s Angels to the pathos of My Sister’s Keeper, her decade-long absence has seen her focus shift to elevating her daughter with husband Benji Madden and co-founding Avaline, a pure wine model.
Diaz mirrored on the choice to step again from the Hollywood rat race throughout an October 2024 interview.
“I needed to reclaim my very own life,” she instructed W Magazine. “It wasn’t about anybody else’s expectations or affords. It was about what I actually wished—constructing a household and specializing in what introduced me pleasure.”
Again in Motion, a Netflix espionage comedy during which Diaz reunites along with her Annie co-star Jamie Foxx, marks her first venture since her self-imposed hiatus. Within the movie, Diaz and Foxx play CIA brokers pulled out of retirement—very similar to Diaz herself—after their identities are uncovered.
In an thrilling new chapter, we might even see extra of Diaz on screens and pink carpets once more, with rumours swirling that she is going to reprise her function as Fiona within the long-awaited Shrek 5 and be a part of an ensemble forged for Apple TV+’s Final result.
