Bradley Cooper

Bradley Cooper made his film debut in the 2001 comedy Wet Hot American Summer and later gained recognition for his role as Will Tippin on J.J. Abrams’ series Alias.

Cooper starred in a slew of early 2000s romantic comedies, but it was his role in 2009’s The Hangover that solidified him as a comedy star. The actor shifted to drama with 2012’s The Place Beyond the Pines and Silver Linings Playbook, the latter of which earned him his first Oscar nomination for Best Actor. Cooper also starred in American Hustle (2013), American Sniper (2014), Aloha (2015) and starred in two additional Hangover films. Cooper voices Rocket Raccoon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

A Star Is Born marked Cooper’s directorial debut. He cowrote, produced and starred in the 2018 film opposite Lady Gaga and earned a Grammy Award for his musical contributions to the film, including “Shallow.” In 2023, Cooper directed, produced, cowrote and starred in the Oscar-nominated movie Maestro. Cooper has also taken his talents to the theater, starring in Three Days of Rain and The Elephant Man on Broadway in 2006 and 2014, respectively.

The actor was married to Jennifer Esposito for six months before their 2007 divorce. He had brief relationships with Renée Zellweger, Zoë Saldaña and Suki Waterhouse before moving on with Irina Shayk in 2015. The twosome welcomed daughter Lea de Seine in 2017, but they called it quits two years later. Cooper sparked a romance with Gigi Hadid in late 2023.
