Legendary actor Daniel Day-Lewis unexpectedly returned to work after 7 years of hiatus: where is the winner of three Oscars filming

The legendary British actor, three-time Oscar winner Daniel Day-Lewis is returning to the screen despite retiring in 2017. The star decided to make an exception after he announced that he would no longer act in movies.

Fans will be able to see 67-year-old Day-Lewis in the upcoming film by his own son Ronan, titled Anemone. This was reported by The Guardian. The movie is currently being filmed in Manchester. The father and son co-authored the script, which explores the complex relationships between fathers, sons and brothers, as well as the dynamics of family ties.

Daniel Day-Lewis made his screen debut as a teenager in Bloody Sunday and went on to play a number of memorable roles in historical dramas, including Hawkeye in The Last of the Mohicans. He is known for his dedication to acting and has won three Academy Awards for Best Actor, playing disabled Irish writer Christy Brown in My Left Foot, oilman Daniel Plainview in Blood Will Run, and Abraham Lincoln in Steven Spielberg's Lincoln.

In 2014, the Duke of Cambridge, aka Prince William, knighted Day-Lewis as a Bachelor of the British Empire. In the summer of 2017, it was announced that the actor was ending his film career, a few months before Phantom Thread was released. "Daniel Day-Lewis will no longer be working as an actor," his representatives said in a statement. This is his personal decision, and neither he nor his representatives will make any further comment on the matter."

He has taken extended breaks from work in the past, including an apprenticeship as a shoemaker in Florence in the 1990s. "My life off set is one in which I follow my curiosity as avidly as I do when I'm working," he told the Observer in 2008. It has always seemed natural to me that this, in turn, should help me in what I do."

In the spring of 2023, the celebrity was spotted on the streets of New York by the paparazzi for the first time in four years. The star was walking around the city in a tracksuit and talking on the phone. In some of the photos, the actor was in the company of his wife Rebecca Miller, with whom he got married in 1996.

In January, Day-Lewis presented American director Martin Scorsese with an award for his western epic, The Killers of the Flower Full Moon. The actor, who starred in such films by the famous director as Gangs of New York and The Age of Innocence, said that working with the artist was "one of the greatest joys and unexpected privileges of my life."
