Earlier Tuesday, Daniel Day-Lewis and Bean were spotted driving
a motorbike through Manchester, England, stoking intrigue about
his impending return to acting. After making Paul Thomas
Anderson's 2017 film “Phantom Thread,” the 67-year-old had said
he was quitting acting.
“All my life, I’ve mouthed off about how I should stop acting,
and I don’t know why it was different this time, but the impulse
to quit took root in me, and that became a compulsion,” he told
W Magazine in 2017. "It was something I had to do.”
Since then, his appearances in public have been infrequent. In
January, though, he made a surprise appearance at the National
Board of Review Awards to present an award to Martin Scorsese,
who directed him in “Gangs of New York” (2002) and “The Age of
Innocence” (1993).
“Anemone," currently in production, is described as exploring
“the intricate relationships between fathers, sons and brothers,
and the dynamics of familial bonds.”
Ronan Day-Lewis, 26, is a painter who has previously exhibited
his works in New York. His first international solo exhibition
debuts Tuesday in Hong Kong.
“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,” said Peter
Kujawski, chair of Focus Features. “They have written a truly
exceptional script, and we look forward to bringing their shared
vision to audiences alongside the team at Plan B.”
