Emily (Cameron Diaz) and Matt (Jamie Foxx) were once spies in Netflix’s Back in Action, but the exact details of their jobs for the CIA are a bit harder to explain. At the start of Cameron Diaz’s comeback movie, Emily and Matt were trying to hide the fact that they were once spies from their children, Alice (McKenna Roberts) and Leo (Rylan Jackson). By the end of Back in Action, however, their children not only knew about their work for the CIA, they had gotten personally involved in their espionage work and met a huge portion of the cast of Back in Action.
