Jason Schwartzman is a frequent collaborator of filmmaker Wes Anderson having gotten his start in the industry in 1998's "Rushmore." He has appeared in various projects of the film auteur like "The Grand Budapest Hotel" and "Moonrise Kingdom."

The actor plays Augie Steenbeck in the director's latest film, "Asteroid City," set for release in mid-2023. The Los Angeles native enjoyed a moderate social life in his early 20s but had settled down before he turned thirty.

Jason Schwartzman Dated Famous Actresses - His Romances with Selma Blair and Zooey Deschanel

From what is known in the public sphere, Jason Schwartzman's dating history is not nearly as dense as that of his cousin Nicolas Cage, but he has made a good impression on two of Hollywood's striking brunettes.

At the beginning of their careers, Jason and Selma Blair dated for a few months between 2000 and 2001. They attended the MTV Movie Awards in June 2000 and held hands at the "Gone in 60 Seconds" and "The Replacements" premiers that year.

In a 2019 social media post, the actress did a low-key call back to their time together when she shared a snap he took when she filmed "A Guy Thing."

Shortly after her relationship with Jason ended, the "Cruel Intentions" actress was linked to musician Ahmet Zappa for four years, two of which they were married. Years later, one of her co-stars revealed he used to have a crush on her.

During the filming of "Legally Blonde," Selma's onscreen love interest, Matthew Davis, who portrayed Warner Huntington III, "absolutely loved and adored" her, calling her the funniest person on the set. He admitted in 2017:

"I developed a crush on her at the time, but she was with someone else — I think she was dating the guy from 'Rushmore,' but he was coming around, and I was kind of like, 'who is this guy?!'"

That guy is Jason. The two actors are connected through another famous woman, Zooey Deschanel. Matthew and Zooey reportedly dated between 2000 and 2001, while Jason and the actress were together from 2003 to 2005.

Zooey told a woman's magazine that Jason was her "first real boyfriend" and that they had many overlapping interests. The pair split their professional time between musical projects and portraying quirky characters on screen.

Jason was the singer in Phantom Planet, and Zoey had a musical project, "If All the Stars Were Pretty Babies," and later, "She & Him."

The couple showed up for each other at their mutual work commitments during their romance that lasted roughly two years, including the premieres for her movies "I (Heart) Huckabees" and "Elf," and numerous award and fashion shows.

The actress was married to Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard and later to producer Jacob Pechenik, with whom she has two children.

News of "Property Brothers" host Jonathan Scott and Zooey's relationship became public in 2019, and they have been dating steadily since.

Jason Schwartzman Found Happiness with Designer Brady Cunningham

"I'm lucky I found a woman that I love, and that's amazing," the "Asteroid City" star has said of Brady. The first thing the couple ever bought together was blueberry pancakes.

A year after their nuptials, the actor admitted that he grew a thick mustache for his wife.

They reportedly dated for three years before their intimate wedding at their San Fernando Valley house on July 11, 2009.

Brady was born and raised in Daphne, Alabama. In the late 1990s, she moved to New York City for an opportunity to work for designer John Bartlett. She went on to study fashion design at the prestigious Parsons School of Design.

The Southern woman and her business partner Kristen Lee, who she met during her studies, relocated to Los Angeles to launch a boutique, TENOVERSIX. She also co-founded a sustainable fashion label. The Parsons alum explains:

"So we decided if we're going to be designers, we wanted to make clothes that are really comfortable, but are also really conscious of the environment. We used organic fabrics like hemp mixed with vintage fabrics."

The serial entrepreneur creative is also the co-founder of Wall for Apricots, a creative consulting and interior design studio with Katy Burgess.

Brady spilled on a blog that the secret to their marriage is to "laugh when things get too serious." The pair loves entertaining at home, "especially during football season."

A year after their nuptials, the actor admitted that he grew a thick mustache for his wife because "she likes it," but the designer does not dictate his wardrobe.

Jason Schwartzman Is a Proud Dad - All We Know about His Children

Jason Schwartzman has three children with Brady. With every child, the private couple, who does not have personal social media, disclosed less personal information. Their eldest daughter, Marlowe Rivers Schwartzman, was born on December 4, 2010.

Marlowe got a little sister in June 2014. There is no information about her third sibling in the public domain. Jason and Brady did not find out the sex of their babies beforehand, preferring to be surprised when they were born.

The star introduced Marlowe to James Corden's "Carpool Karaoke" to nurture her interest in music and for her to see people "laughing and being themselves." To her father's regret, the youngster's passion for the show has made her turn their rides to school into "Carpool Karaoke."

Schwartzman had his eldest daughter, then eight, in tears the first time he could share what he does with her during a private screening of "Klaus" in 2019. "It's my favorite movie ever," Marlowe told him.
