00:15OK, you know that I love our life.

00:18What?

00:19Tonight, something clicked.

00:25For the first time in a really long time, I felt alive again.

00:30I felt like the bitch again.

00:33Mom!

00:34She's fine.

00:34It's not that bad.

00:35Now in a fun video promo for the film,

00:37the actors are reminding fans they've

00:39been friends for 25 years.

00:42Back in action, back in action.

00:49Satisfaction, we're back in action.

00:55People don't even realize, oh, we've been friends.

00:57It's true.

00:58Since we were in Any Given Sunday Together,

01:00which was in 1999.

01:03And now we're back in action, baby.

01:04Back in action.

01:05And we've been friends since before Apple

01:08started making the iPod.

01:10And now they make the iPhone and not the iPod.

01:14Tell them what else happened, Jamie.

01:15What else happened was Martha Stewart

01:17got super in the weed and became best friends with Snoop.

01:24The Dave Forshrek movies.

01:25Yes, love that.

01:27We also did Annie Together.

01:29That's right.

01:29And we lived through so much.

01:31We lived through Keyboard Cat, Pizza Rat, NFTs, DVDs,

01:36Corn Kids, Bean Dad, Salt Bae, Left Shark, Pink Sauce,

01:39Grimace Shake, and The Dress.

01:41Oh, yeah, which was white and gold.

01:43Oh, I thought it was black and blue.

01:48And now we're back together for another movie.

01:51And I am just so excited.

01:53Yes, because we're back in action.

01:58There we go.

01:59Cameron recently appeared on her brother-in-law's podcast,

02:02Artist Friendly with Joel Madden,

02:03and spoke about the film and how Jamie's health

02:05scare back in April 2023 impacted the project.

02:09One of the things that I think we have to talk about

02:13is back in action.

02:15OK.

02:17Yeah, I mean, I totally would like to talk about it.

02:20I want to talk about it.

02:23Because it's going to be coming out.

02:25It's coming out.

02:26And you worked very hard on it.

02:28Well, it's been a long journey, it feels like.

02:31Well, it's been two years.

02:32Yeah, since you made it.

02:34Yeah, lots happened.

02:36But that's not the thing that's important about it.

02:39Yes.

02:40But is it weird when you make a movie

02:41and then you have to wait two years for it to come out?

02:43It's the first time it's ever happened.

02:44Oh, wow.

02:45Does it usually come out like a year later?

02:47Or like, how does that work?

02:48Yeah, we just had unfortunate circumstances.

02:52We had to stop filming at the end.

02:54We got two weeks short because Jamie had a stroke, which

02:58was crazy.

02:59And thank God he's OK.

03:02And he'll have a special that comes out

03:05in the beginning of December.

03:06Like sharing the journey?

03:08Sharing the journey, which is really incredible.

03:11And then he miraculously recovered

03:16and is better than ever.

03:18But we then, once he recovered, then the strike happened.

03:23There was a writer's strike and an actor's strike.

03:26And so the whole year was taken up.

03:28We couldn't film.

03:30So we had to wait, because we still owed some film,

03:36like just to finish off the filming.

03:41And once we were able to do that, then it was another,

03:45it's been another year, basically, when it comes out.

03:47And Jamie himself also shared gratitude

03:50for his full recovery, telling the audience

03:52in his new Netflix special that he

03:54believes his teenage daughter's musical talent

03:57helped save his life.

03:58My vitals were so bad, they were going to lose me.

04:01And that's when a miracle happened.

04:07And that miracle was working through my youngest daughter.

04:14She's 14.

04:18I didn't want her to see me like that.

04:22But she snuck into my hospital room with her guitar.

04:28And she says, I know what my daddy needs.

04:40She says, that's my daddy.

04:44What's interesting is, my daughter used to carry her

04:46guitar all the time with her.

04:49And they said, when she was playing, my vitals went down.

04:57The nurses at the nurse's station were baffled.

05:01Like, wow, what did they give him?

05:04So they rushed into the room, and she said, I got him.

05:10It was God in that guitar.

05:16God was in that guitar.

05:19The emotional moment continued with the Oscar winner

05:21bringing out his daughter to play the guitar on stage.
