Jamie Foxx and Jeremy Piven filmed an NBA comedy in 2016 titled "All-Star Weekend," but the film has not yet appeared in theaters, and many have begun to wonder if it will ever see the light of day. "All-Star Weekend," which also stars Robert Downey Jr., Benicio del Toro, Gerard Butler and Eva Longoria, was supposed to hit theaters in 2018 before being pushed to 2019. However, the premiere, once tied to the NBA All-Star Weekend, never happened.
Downey Jr. was cast as a Mexican man, while Foxx was set to play a "white racist cop," Page Six reported. "It’s been tough with the lay of the land when it comes to comedy," Foxx told CinemaBlend last week when asked for an update on when fans can see the movie.
"We’re trying to break open the sensitive corners where people go back to laughing again. … Hopefully, we'll keep them laughing and run them into ‘All-Star Weekend’ because we're definitely going for it."

(Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic) According to IMDB, the film is currently in "post-production." A representative for Foxx did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
Foxx said the comedy was "relevant" during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in 2018. "Comedy, right now, needs a movie like ‘All-Star Weekend’ and something you haven’t seen before." Experts explained to Fox News Digital how the "risk" behind making comedies in today's climate can affect what gets to be released by a studio. "This is part of a greater trend of risk aversion stifling Hollywood creativity," Howard Breuer, CEO of Newsroom PR, said.

“Day Shift” treats its mix of action, comedy, and horror as an excuse to repeat those genres with lots of stuff you’ve seen and heard before.
Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic“Day Shift” is a vampire thriller stuffed with lock-and-load ultraviolence, starring Jamie Foxx in imperious badass mode. At heart, though, it’s a knowingly eccentric goof of a movie, to the point that it’s hard, for a while, not to find it agreeable, even as you register what a preposterous piece of fluff it is. Unfortunately, it’s also an arduous piece of fluff.
for Netflix, turns the fanged night-dwellers into bland, karate-kicking zombies, devoid of any personality and mythic grandeur but ready to engage in hand-to-hand combat and do pointless backflips. Where, we wonder, is the nuanced acting from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”? Bud masquerades as a pool cleaner in California’s San Fernando Valley while actually making a buck as a union vampire hunter.
The vampire genre has survived innumerable indignities over the decades — Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter or Dracula 2000, anyone? — so it will surely emerge largely intact after the abuse is must now endure courtesy of Day Shift. The premise isn’t half-bad, with a leading-man vampire attempting to go straight for the sake of his wife and young daughter, and the presence of Jamie Foxx and Snoop Dogg in leading roles provides some allure, amusement and cache. But the script never remotely rises to the occasion, resulting in a hodge-podgy mess that, at nearly two hours, is also a half-hour too long for its own, or anyone else’s, good.
