**LOS ANGELES, CA** – Academy Award-winning actor Daniel Day-Lewis is making his highly anticipated return to the silver screen after a seven-year hiatus. He will star in his son Ronan Day-Lewis’ directorial debut, “Anemone”. This marks Ronan’s first foray into filmmaking and a poignant reunion for the father-son duo, who co-wrote the script together.
“Anemone” delves into the complexities of familial bonds, exploring the relationships between fathers, sons, and brothers. The film is set to feature an ensemble cast including Sean Bean, Samantha Morton, Samuel Bottomley, and Safia Oakley-Green.
