Daniel Day-Lewis Officially Ends Retirement From Acting for Son’s Film ‘Anemone’


Daniel Day-Lewis is coming out of retirement to act in a new movie for the first time since 2017's "Phantom Thread."

Daniel Day-Lewis has been lauded for Steven Spielberg’s “Lincoln,” Paul Thomas Anderson’s “There Will Be Blood,” and Jim Sheridan’s “My Left Foot.” He’s also received nominations for “Gangs of New York” and “In the Name of the Father.” The actor later reflected on his decision to publicly announce his retirement, telling W magazine that “before making [‘Phantom Thread’], I didn’t know I was going to stop acting.” Part of the reason he made a statement on the matter was to hold himself accountable. Daniel Day-Lewis attended the National Board of Review awards earlier this year and reunited with his “Gangs of New York” director Martin Scorsese, who stoked rumors about the actor possibly un-retiring for a future collaboration between them.
