US EditionIntense For Trailer For 'Anemone', Daniel Day-Lewis' First Movie In 8 Years, Released
Daniel Day-Lewis returns after eight years to star and co-write "Anemone," a family drama directed by his son Ronan, premiering at the 2025 New York Film Festival.
- Daniel Day‑Lewis returns to the screen after an eight‑year hiatus to star in Anemone, directed by his son Ronan Day‑Lewis, with Focus Features releasing it Oct. 3 and expanding on Oct. 10.
- Focus Features chair Peter Kujawski said last year the studio partnered with Ronan Day‑Lewis, who co‑wrote and directs his debut alongside Daniel Day‑Lewis, with producers Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, and executive producer Brad Pitt.
- The first trailer teases violence and PTSD-tinged confusion as Sean Bean's Jem nicknames Ray Stoker `The Invisible Man` and exchanges `You're going to hell, brother` with `Family reunion`.
- The trailer release and New York Film Festival in September have amplified attention for Anemone, featuring Samantha Morton, Samuel Bottomley, Safia Oakley‑Green and Sean Bean.
- This return is notable because Daniel Day‑Lewis's second comeback from retirement after 1997 explores complex ties between brothers, fathers and sons amid legacies of political and personal violence.
