Although he played coy on the nature of the surprise, Cannon hinted, “I was reluctant to go all the way there and even talk about it, but he gave me the blessing, so it’s a beautiful thing.”

The “Drumline” star’s update comes on the heels of his touching Instagram tribute to Foxx.

In the April 15 post, Cannon asked his social media followers to speak “words of affirmation” over the Oscar winner.

“Continuing to send Prayers, healing energy and Love Frequencies your way Big Bro!!” the “All That” alum continued. “You know how much I love you Family????????.”

He has remained hospitalized in Georgia as production carries on with his body double after a brief break.

The movie previously paused filming in March when Foxx allegedly fired four people in an on-set meltdown that has Diaz considering re-retiring from acting.
