If I had to guess I'd say this is probably related to AndroidX replacing the old support library in RN 0.60. More information on the AndroidX situation can be found here. This closed PR of an early attempt to add AndroidX support to lottie-react-native may prove useful if anyone is wanting to work on a fix.
