Earlier this year, the actor suffered a health scare while filming his Netflix movie, 'Back in Action', in Atlanta.
He was rushed to hospital.
Speaking about the undisclosed health condition, the Oscar-winning actor said he was fighting for his life.
"I went through something that I thought I would never ever go through," Foxx said on Instagram.
"I didn't want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was going to make it through," he added.
"I went to hell and back and my road to recovery had some potholes as well."
