Cameron Diaz showed up to Apple TV’s Press Day for her new film, Outcome, co-starring Keanu Reeves, Matt Bomer, and Jonah Hill on Feb 3.
Dressed in a figure-hugging white midi skirt with feathered fringe near the bottom, along with a sheer blouse. She looked relaxed and casual as she stood with her castmates.
With her hair pulled back into a loose ponytail and natural makeup, the Charlie’s Angels star looked incredibly youthful, not like a seasoned vet who’d recently returned to acting after a decade in “retirement.” But that’s exactly what Diaz—whose first film, The Mask, came out 32 years ago—is.

After appearing in the 2014 film Annie, Diaz disappeared from Hollywood until her name suddenly appeared on the cast list for 2025’s Back in Action. While promoting that film, she told The Graham Norton Show that her time away from acting was “the best 10 years of my life,” but she felt it was time to return. She realized that if she squandered her “passion for entertaining people and making movies that people smile, laugh, and have a good time” watching, she’d regret it.
“If I don’t engage that again and give that a chance and participate in it and be grateful for it, then I would be a fool,” she said.
Diaz’s IMDb page shows that she’s jumped back into the industry with both feet. She’s currently filming Bad Day and Shrek 5, and is in pre-production for two other films. Outcome, which is also written and directed by Hill, is set to premiere on Apple TV+ on April 10. Diaz and Reeves, who haven’t starred in anything together since 1996’s Feeling Minnesota, were delighted to be reunited.
“It was very nice,” Reeves told Extra TV. Diaz agreed, adding, “Not as cold.”
Reeves stars as Reef, a Hollywood star who finds himself blackmailed. Diaz and Bomer play his best friends, Kyle and Xander, with Hill as his lawyer, Ira.
“It’s an interesting commentary about celebrity and how it functions in our society and what’s expected,” Diaz explained. “We live in a world now where celebrity is accessible to anyone. Anybody can be famous.”
She described being famous as “a feeling that everybody is reaching for and they don’t really know what it is.”
“It’s a value in our society that I think we should all sort of take a look at because it might not be the best thing for our health,” she added.
The appearance is the latest in Diaz’s red carpet return, following her showing at the WWD Style Awards in Los Angeles on Jan. 9, 2026, and her first movie premiere in five years at the Berlin debut of Back in Action on Jan. 15, 2025, after stepping away from Hollywood in 2019.
