Daniel Day-Lewis “retired’ from acting in 2017, following his acclaimed performance in Paul Thomas Anderson’s Phantom Thread. However, later this year, he will be returning to the big screen in Anemone. Anemone was directed by Ronan Day-Lewis, Daniel’s son. Ronan and Daniel collaborated on the script. Perhaps not coincidentally, Anemone features Daniel Day-Lewis and Sean Bean, playing father-and-son.
Anemone will premiere at the New York Film Festival in September before then moving onto a theatrical release in October.
