Fox was a supporting actor in the 1999 film "Resurrection" playing the role of Detective Scholfield and the role of Ray in the television film "The Collectors". At the time, ESPN quoted Fox as saying of trying to balance his acting career with his sports career that, "I mean, Penny Marshall is courtside. You got Jack (Nicholson) and Denzel (Washington). The head of the William Morris Agency is there. (Ally McBeal creator) David E. Kelley comes to some games ... I want to jump into conversations with them, but I'm working!"
