Hollywood actor Daniel Day-Lewis, considered one of the exceptional
actors of his generation and winner of three Oscars, has decided to retire from
showbiz, the media stated.
The artist's spokeswoman on Tuesday verified the news in a
statement cited by Variety magazine, though without giving any reason for the
decision.
"Daniel Day-Lewis will no longer be working as an
actor. He is immensely grateful to all of his collaborators and audiences over
the many years. This is a private decision and neither he nor his
representatives will make any further comment on this subject," Dart told.
The last movie by Day-Lewis, 60, will be "Phantom
Thread" by director Paul Thomas Anderson, about the world of fashion in
the 1950s. Written by Thomas Anderson himself, Day-Lewis will star in a cast
that also features Lesley Manville and Camilla Rutherford in the film, Efe news
reported.
By the way, Day-Lewis won his second Oscar for written and
directed by, yes, Thomas Anderson.
The other two Academy Awards statuettes he took were for by
Steven Spielberg and by Jim Sheridan.
He is the only artist in Hollywood history to win three
Oscars in the Best Actor category. He won the three awards for "There Will
Be Blood", "My Left Foot" and "Lincoln".
