In addition to wearing his hair in an afro, Foxx sported a gold chain, matching watch and blinged-out rings on nearly ever finger on his left hand.

‘I don’t think that it’s just good enough to be first African-American, we had to turn it into something fantastic… and I believe that we did it. I’m so happy to be a part of it,’ the actor said of the movie.

As host Lisa Wilkinson asked Jamie if the timing of the movie felt ‘just right’ because of the Black Lives Matter movement this year, he responded: ‘Oh my goodness, yes.
‘We’ve gone through so many challenges, and we give so much to the culture, so much to society, so when we are going through these terrible things, it is beautiful to have a light.
‘It’s beautiful to have something that we can watch, and escape and be entertained and get some smiles from. We are in need of some smileage!’
