Jason Schwartzman Net Worth $18 Million

Jason comes from a family of artists; his mother is Talia Shire (née Coppola) and his father was Jack Schwartzman, a film producer. On his mother’s side Jason has family ties with the Coppola family, including Francis Ford Coppola, Sofia Coppola, Roman and Christopher Coppola.

Jason went to Windward School in West Los Angeles, where he formed the rock band Phantom Planet, with musicians Alex Greenwald as a singer, Darren Robinson guitarist, and Sam Farrar and Jacques Brautbar. He stayed with the band until 2004, and oversaw the release of three albums “Phantom Planet Is Missing” (1998), “The Guest” (2002), and “Phantom Planet” (2004), the sales of which certainly increased his net worth.

Since talent for acting runs in the family, it wasn’t long before Jason tried himself as an actor, starring in Wes Anderson’s Golden Globe Award- nominated film “Rushmore” (1998), next to Bill Murray and Olivia Williams. Three years later he made an appearance in Roman Coppola’s film “CQ”, and then in 2002 had the lead role in Jonas Åkerlund’s “Spun”. Jason continued to climb his way up, and in 2004 starred in David O. Russell’s comedy “I Heart Huckabees”, while in 2005 he portrayed Ritchie in Nora Ephron’s “Bewitched”, starring Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell. The next year he appeared next to Kirsten Dunst in Sofia Coppola’s Academy Award- winning film “Marie Antoinette”, while in 2007 he shared the screen with Adrien Brody and Owen Wilson in the adventure comedy “The Darjeeling Limited”, then from 2009 until 2011 portrayed Jonathn Ames in the TV series “Bored to Death. All added steadily to his net worth.

In 2012 he teamed up again with Wes Anderson, and had a role in his Academy Award- nominated film adventure comedy “Moonrise Kingdom”. Jason earned a name for himself and was cast in more high profile films, including “Saving Mr. Banks” in 2013 starring Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson, and had the lead role in “Listen Up Philip” in 2014, with Elisabeth Moss, while the same year he also featured in yet another Wes Anderson production, “The Grand Budapest Hotel”, with such stars as Ralph Fiennes, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum and Harvey Keitel among others. 2015 year was quite busy for Jason too, as he appeared in several films including “The Overnight” and “7 Chinese Brothers” (2015), and also portrayed Duncan Adler in the TV series “Blunt Talk” (2015-2016). Most recently, Jason featured in the drama “Golden Exits” (2017), starring Emily Browning. His net worth is still rising.

Regarding his personal life, Jason has been married to Brady Cunningham since 2009; the couple has two children.

1Frequently works with Wes Anderson
#Quote
1Whereas Jeremy is just the opposite: always moving because he's never really thinking of anything and the kind of guy you'd worry inviting to a dinner party because he says what he thinks. He can be insulting at times but doesn't mean to be.
2I love the idea of playing a character that didn't over think everything. He knows what's in front of him and he has an ability to just say whatever he felt.
3It's funny that people think because you don't have a movie or record out, you disappear into a frozen chamber someplace. They think you're dead when you're not in the public eye.
4But actually, I'm planning on moving to New York this year and I can tell you one reason why I think New York is incredible: I think things happen to you that you don't expect have happen to you.
5Every actor I ever meet goes, 'Ultimately I plan on having my own company and write and direct,' but yes, I too would love to write and direct a movie. I want to do a play, too. I want to do it all.
6I always tell people that to be the funny person in a Steve Martin movie is like getting a call that Keith Moon wants you to play drums on his record. He should be playing drums on his record.
7I didn't have an agent, I didn't have a headshot. I didn't even know if anyone would know where to find me. I just went back to high school and started playing with my band.
8I just have some restaurants to just go and eat there. Do mean places to watch people? I like to go shopping look for guitars and stuff with my friends. Look at Meyer, great old instruments, talk about pedals and stuff.
9In one sentence, I'd describe myself as indescribable. But, I wouldn't end it with a period. I'd end it with three dots.
10Steve Martin is such an exquisite and precise writer. Everything is so clear; it's like a bell. He says what he means and says it so beautifully.
11Whereas I think in New York every step is a detour in every direction.
12After I quit my band, I definitely was so full, like I'm so full I could never eat again. I had that kind of feeling where the elements, like the touring stuff, were harder for me and I definitely felt fine not experiencing it again.
13Also, the more you're not focused on showbiz and instead focused on life, learning about other people, and keeping your eyes open and trying to be aware of the world.
14There's all these ways to instantly communicate - cars, computers, telephone and transportation - and even with all that, it's so hard to find people and have an honest communication with them.
15At this point, I think I would garner a lot of hate mail if I was now on the cover of Modern Drummer seeing as I'm not a modern drummer anymore.
16But I'd have to say Young Frankenstein (1974), which I can watch forever.
17I have never stopped playing music.
18I just find that the harder you work and the more effort you put into yourself, the better you'll be.
19I believe in not over thinking things too much. When the right thing comes along, you really don't have a choice.
20I'm a creature of habit. I go to restaurants all the time and stuff.
21Man, I hate to get depressing on you, but I don't have a game. I'm so alone, so depressed, so dark, no.
22Logic plus logic equals the illogical. Do you know what I mean?
23In a city where you walk around, it's impossible to plan your day and your life as accidents will happen, you'll overhear things, bump into people, and take unexpected turns.
24I don't know the first real thing about the dating game. I don't know how to talk to a specific person and connect. I just think you have to go to person by person and do the best you can with people in general.
25As far as loneliness, I feel Los Angeles and its layout, having to drive everywhere - it is a lonely place. It's an isolated city in that respect because you're driving to places alone listening to the radio.
26Dating is just awkward moments and one person wants more than the other. It's just that constant strangeness. I think it's a very real thing.
27I was heartbroken at the end of that, because I thought that was going to be it for me. Somehow I had worked my way into this movie and it had exposed me to people and I had a chance to be an actor, which I loved, but I didn't think it was ever going to happen again.
28I like being alone and I think this movie, as much as it is an investigation of connection and people bonding, I also think it's just as much about loneliness.
