Jamie Foxx had to be rushed to the hospital because of an unknown condition and while the doctors are performing all kinds of tests, the shooting of his 'Back in Action' movie is not stopping.

Director Seth Gordon is currently using Travis Parker, his stunt double as a stand-in for some of his scenes with other actors like Cameron Diaz.

It is yet to be revealed what Jamie Foxx's condition is but it seems serious, as reported by TMZ, Jamie's family flew in to see him at the hospital where he is getting diagnosed.

News reports surfaced that the Oscar-winning actor had been hospitalized following a stroke. The actor, known for his roles in movies like "Ray" and "Django Unchained," was reportedly rushed to a hospital after experiencing chest pain.

The medical emergency has had him in the hospital since Thursday.

According to the doctors, Jamie will be in the hospital at least for a few more days and because there is no diagnosis, the doctors have not cleared him to go back to filming any time soon.

Jamie Foxx's regular filming hours are long and he still has 8 shooting days to go, but it seems that those eight days are crucial for the film's development.

Megan Good spoke to the media and she was praising Foxx for his great talent and what a good guy he is. Megan shared the screen with him when they filmed 'Day Shift' together.
