‘Born free. Be free. Happy Holidays,’ Anthony wrote, possibly as a tip of the hat to the famous 1960s British film Born Free about a royal couple raising a lioness.
Her comments were inundated with supporters, including Hugh Jackman, her co-star in the new movie The Son, who wrote: “Merry Christmas Tony x.”
The Son is based on a play by French playwright Florian Zeller, part of a trilogy that includes The Father and The Mother.
Anthony previously won worldwide acclaim and an Academy Award for the film adaptation of The Father, in which he starred opposite Olivia Colman.
