Diaz: `Knight and Day` helped her through grief
The 37-year-old actress was left devastated when her dad Emilio died of pneumonia in April 2008 during filming of drama `My Sister`s Keeper? and admits took on the role opposite Tom Cruise because she was desperate to have some "fun" afterwards.
She explained: "I`d spent a year in grief with my family and I just wanted to have some fun and go on a great adventure.
"I wanted to spend some time just having a laugh without it being something heavy."
The blonde beauty admitted she always bases her movie choices on things she likes, rather than how they can help her career.
She added: "I`ve always made movies for my own pleasure. I`ve never made decisions based on any sort of trajectory for my career."
Cameron recently expressed her sadness at voicing her `Shrek` character Princess Fiona for the fourth and final time.
She said: I`m going to miss Fiona a lot. She`s become a part of me."
