Jamie Foxx is back in the comedy scene, and it’s creating a lot of excitement.

The “Django Unchained” actor has launched a new Netflix special called “What Had Happened Was” marking his comeback to the stage after a health scare that saw him hospitalized last year.

This hour-long show combines heartfelt reflections with humor. As Foxx put it, “If I can stay funny, I can stay alive.”

Foxx initially kept the details of his hospitalization under wraps but shared during the special that he had been in a coma due to a stroke.

“I lost everything, but I clung to my sense of humor,” the actor shared. “I struggled to walk and talk, but I never let go of what makes me funny.”
