Cameron Diaz announced her retirement to focus on her personal life, family, friends and relationships in an interview with fellow actor Gwyneth Paltrow in 2018. She gave birth to her daughter Raddix the following year.
She said she was feeling peaceful after going on hiatus
“When you’re making a movie…they own you. You’re there 12 hours a day for months on end. You have no time for anything else. I had to basically take it back, and take responsibility for my life,” she said.
In 2020, she said she was open to returning to acting.
“Obviously, everybody wants you to go back to acting…” said the star. “Look, I’m never going to say ‘never’. I’m not a person who says ‘never’ about anything, clearly.”
