In the upcoming film, Anemone, Daniel Day-Lewis (68) is set to captivate audiences once more, stepping back into the world of acting after his retirement announcement in 2017. The film, directed by Ronan Day-Lewis (27), his son, promises a gripping exploration of familial ties and the consequences of past traumas.
Anemone follows the story of Ray Stalker, a reclusive man, portrayed by Day-Lewis, who reunites with his estranged brother. The men, played by Sean Bean (66) and Samuel Bottomley (24), share a tense yet occasionally tender relationship, forever changed by shocking events decades ago. The film is set in the north of England and takes the audience on a journey into the woods as the middle-aged man leaves his suburban home in search of answers.
The screenplay for Anemone was co-written by the father-son duo of Daniel Day-Lewis. The film marks a significant departure from Day-Lewis' most recent role in Paul Thomas Anderson's Phantom Thread (2017), which was his last film before his retirement.
Anemone will have its world premiere at this year's New York Film Festival, which begins on September 26. The film is set to hit German cinemas on November 13. For those eager to catch a glimpse of the film, the first official image of Anemone can be seen on the official Instagram account of the upcoming film.
Throughout his illustrious career, Day-Lewis has garnered three Oscars for his roles in "Lincoln," "There Will Be Blood," and "My Left Foot." With Anemone, he adds another compelling performance to his repertoire, delving into the complexities of family dynamics and the enduring impact of past events.
