Anna Paquin has been "moved" by the outpouring of support over her health issues.

The 41-year-old actress made an appearance at the premiere of her new film 'A Bit of Light' in New York City on Wednesday (03.04.24) and was seen walking the red carpet with a cane alongside her actor/director husband Stephen Moyer but insisted that while she will be is "grateful" for well-wishes, she will not be "elaborating" on her condition until she feels ready.

Speaking on 'Spilling the E-Tea', she said: I am extraordinarily touched and moved by people showing that they care and being interested and kind about it. At some point I will probably elaborate on my own platform in my own words. I'm just really grateful for the support."

The 'Fly Away Home' actress did not give any update on her condition on her premiere night but did admit that things hadn't been "easy" for her whilst a source was hopeful that she would make a "full recovery" soon.

The insider said: "[Anna] will hopefully make a full recovery."

However, despite the issues Anna declared she feels grateful to still be working after starting her career as a child star in 'The Piano' which earned her an Oscar nomination at the age of 11.

She told PEOPLE: "My first love was independent filmmaking,. That's how I entered the film industry. I was working with people who were all about telling stories and telling them with integrity and truth."

In her new film - which is directed by Moyer - Anna plays an alcoholic mother who loses custody of her children. She said of the role: "Not everyone ends up having the journey with motherhood that they have hoped or had planned.

"We're all flawed and imperfect, and [my character] Ella is kind of on some level repeating some sort of familial patterns as far as stuffing feelings down.

"It's very relatable because there's so many ways that people can get in their own way, or sort of learn to cope with trauma."
