Washington DC [US], August 21 : Oscar-winning Daniel Day-Lewis is out of retirement with the film 'Anemone' directed by his son Ronan Day-Lewis. The makers have shared the trailer of the film.
The film, which marks Daniel Day-Lewis's first role in eight years, co-stars Sean Bean, Samuel Bottomley, Safia Oakley-Green and Samantha Morton, according to Variety.
