Jamie Foxx remains in the hospital as one of his projects has begun filming.

According to TMZ, Beat Shazam, a game show hosted by Foxx, started filming its new season and brought in a replacement for the Oscar-winning actor.

Foxx's daughter, Corinne Foxx, who serves as a DJ on the show, won't be on the upcoming season either as she remains by her father's side in an Atlanta hospital, per the report.

It was Corinne Foxx who first broke the news last month that the actor-singer had experienced an unidentified health issue.

“We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,” read the April 12 Instagram statement from “the Foxx family.” “Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery.”

Prior to the announcement, Foxx was on set for his upcoming film Back in Action, which also stars Cameron Diaz.

The family has thus far declined to reveal details of Foxx's health condition. According to TMZ, sources close to Foxx are pleading for others to "Pray for Jamie."
