Anna Paquin walked a red carpet with a cane Wednesday while dealing with undisclosed health issues.

The “Piano” star appeared to be in good spirits as she posed for photos at the New York City premiere of her new film, “A Bit of Light.”

Paquin, 41, held the black walking stick in her right hand while standing both by herself and alongside her husband, Stephen Moyer, who directed the movie.

The Oscar winner wore a black long-sleeve minidress with a mock turtleneck and sharp shoulder pads. She pulled her hair back in a sleek updo and accessorized the look with black tights and heels.

While Paquin has not shared the cause of her Health struggles, she told People at the event that the past two years have been “difficult.”

“It hasn’t been easy,” she said.

The “True Blood” alum has not walked a red carPet since October 2022 at the Raindance Film Festival. She posed for photos with Moyer then, too, but notably did not use a cane.

The couple tied the knot in 2010 and share 11-year-old twins: daughter Poppy and son Charlie.

A rep for Paquin didn’t return Page Six’s request for comment.
