Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach have officially tied the knot after a 12-year-long relationship. According to a source from PEOPLE, the couple exchanged vows at New York City Hall. Their journey began when they met on the set of the 2010 film Greenberg, and they began dating a year later. In a July interview with Elle UK, Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach revealed the arrival of their second child. Their first child, Harold Ralph Gerwig Baumbach, was born in March 2019.

They collaborated on the screenplay for Barbie. Baumbach expressed his admiration for working with Gerwig, sharing that their creative synergy extends to their work. He mentioned the joy of witnessing her craft and the reciprocal inspiration they draw from each other's projects.

He expressed the pleasure they derive from writing together, saying, "I think the pleasure of writing for us is that it seeps into everything. I'd show her a cut of my movie, and then a few months later, I'm watching her movie. I don't want to sound sickeningly happy, but it's a truly great thing to watch someone you love make something and love the thing they make. I don't know how else to say it without saying great a lot."

Couple's Nominations For Oscars 2020

Both were previously nominated for Oscars in 2020 for their individual achievements in filmmaking. Baumbach was recognized for Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay for Marriage Story, while Gerwig received a nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay for Little Women. Baumbach publicly credited his wife for influencing him positively in both his personal and professional lives. He confessed that he strives to impress her whenever they collaborate on writing, believing that their partnership elevates his work.

Greta Gerwig Made History

With Barbie, Greta Gerwig made history as the first solo female director to lead a billion-dollar-grossing film. The movie received acclaim for its clever, feminist take on the popular toy line, embracing unconventional elements and an unexpected closing line. Variety's report highlights the film's 'candy-coated visuals' by Rodrigo Prieto and the vibrant performances of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, suggesting strong prospects for recognition by the Academy when nominations are unveiled in January 2024.
