Actor Daniel Day-Lewis retired from acting seven years ago, but he’s coming back to the big screen to star in a film directed by his son.
The 67-year-old Academy Award-winner will take on the main role in the upcoming project “Anemone,” which he co-wrote with Ronan Day-Lewis. The film is about fathers, sons, and brothers, per The Hollywood Reporter.
“We could not be more excited to partner with a brilliant visual artist in Ronan Day-Lewis on his first feature film alongside Daniel Day-Lewis as his creative collaborator,” Focus Features chairman Peter Kujawski said. “They have written a truly exceptional script, and we look forward to bringing their shared vision to audiences alongside the team at Plan B.”
Day-Lewis has been described as one of the greatest actors in the world. Over the course of his career, he’s received numerous accolades, including three Academy Awards, four BAFTA Awards, three Screen Actors Guild Awards, and two Golden Globe Awards. The London-born Hollywood star even received a knighthood for services to drama in 2014.

The actor is best known for his Oscar-winning roles in “My Left Foot” (1989), “There Will Be Blood” (2007), and “Lincoln” (2012). He was also praised for “The Last of the Mohicans” (1992), “In the Name of the Father” (1993), “The Age of Innocence” (1993), “The Crucible” (1996), “The Boxer” (1997), “Gangs of New York” (2002), and “Phantom Thread” (2017).
Day-Lewis also semi-retired from acting briefly from 1997 until 2000 to become a shoemaker’s apprentice in Florence, Italy. He entered back into the trade after being persuaded to appear in Martin Scorsese’s “Gangs of New York.”
In 2017, the actor’s agent announced that Day-Lewis “will no longer be working as an actor,” per BBC News.
It was described as a “private decision.” The actor’s spokesperson noted he was “immensely grateful to all of his collaborators and audiences.”
Ronan, 26, is Daniel’s middle son.
