Oscar-winning US actor Jamie Foxx has been discharged from the hospital after suffering a serious medical complication on the set of his movie in Atlanta.

Last month, the 55-year-old Foxx was rushed to a medical facility in the state of Georgia, where he was filming a Netflix movie at the time.

No details on his medical condition had been divulged since, leading to some speculation that the “Django Unchained” star could be deteriorating.

But Jamie’s daughter, Corinne Foxx, dispelled those rumors in an Instagram post Friday.

“Sad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday!” she wrote.

Foxx’s publicist confirmed the news to AFP, without providing further detail.

Foxx, an actor, comedian and Grammy-winning singer, won an Academy Award in 2005 for the Ray Charles musical biopic “Ray,” and was also Oscar-nominated for “Collateral” that same year.
