Phantom Thread Co-Stars Reunite at New York Film Festival

Vicky Krieps, the Luxembourgish-German actress who found her breakout role alongside Daniel Day-Lewis in the 2017 film Phantom Thread, is thrilled to see her former co-star return to the big screen. Krieps, 42, attended the New York Film Festival premiere of her own movie Father Mother Sister Brother on October 3, 2025, where she expressed her anticipation for watching Day-Lewis' new film Anemone, which also screened at the festival.

Though Krieps hasn't seen Anemone yet, she is eagerly looking forward to it, having been unaware that the film was premiering at the festival. Krieps and Day-Lewis developed a close bond during the making of Phantom Thread, with the actress recalling how they would "walk around nature and just look at trees and talk about poetry" on set.

In Anemone, Day-Lewis stars as a British ex-soldier-turned recluse whose estranged brother, played by Sean Bean, tries to convince him to reconnect with the wife and son he abandoned decades prior. The film is directed by Day-Lewis' son, Ronan Day-Lewis, whom he co-wrote the screenplay with.

Krieps' own film, Father Mother Sister Brother, is an ensemble dramedy that examines the relationships between three sets of siblings and their aging or deceased parents. The movie also features a star-studded cast, including Adam Driver, Tom Waits, Cate Blanchett, Mayim Bialik, Indya Moore, and Luka Sabbat.
