Zack Sharf Digital News Director It sounds like Daniel Day-Lewis is serious about his retirement from acting and won’t be returning, at least according to his longtime director Jim Sheridan. The Irish filmmaker directed three of Day-Lewis’ most prominent films: “My Left Foot” (1989), “In the Name of the Father” (1993) and “The Boxer” (1997). Day-Lewis won the Oscar for best actor with “My Left Foot” and was also nominated for “In the Name of the Father.” “He says he’s done.
I keep talking to him,” Sheridan told ScreenDaily on the topic of Day-Lewis staying retired. “I’d love to do something with him again. He’s like everybody else.
He opens up the streamers and there’s seven thousand choices, none of them are good. Film has been moved out of the public domain into a private domain – you have a remote, you can stop it. It’s not the same experience.
It’d be great to see Daniel coming back and doing something because he’s so good.” Day-Lewis announced his retirement from acting in June 2017, several months before the release of Paul Thomas Anderson’s “Phantom Thread.” That film, which garnered Day-Lewis yet another Oscar nomination for best actor, turned out to be his final movie. “Daniel Day-Lewis will no longer be working as an actor,” the actor’s spokesperson said in a statement at the time. “He is immensely grateful to all of his collaborators and audiences over the many years.
