POV: You just watched Frankenstein and your first instinct was to casually add "is Oscar Isaac married" to your search history. Answer: yes, and his wife is—as expected—extremely cool and chic. Meet Elvira Lind (congrats to her parents on the perfect first name), a Danish filmmaker who's been in a relationship with Oscar for over a decade. It's called being blessed! Here are some quick essential facts while you contemplate important things like whether or not you're attracted to Jacob Elordi as The Creature (you are).
She and Oscar Met in 2012
Oscar chatted about meeting Elvira at a party to NPR in 2013, saying, "I went to a party, and I was forced to be at this party, and I went dressed as Llewyn. It was a month before shooting. And then I was sitting in the corner just eating. I was the only person eating at the party. And this girl who ended up, she's a documentary filmmaker, so obviously she spotted the weirdo and went directly to that one. And [she] sat with me and talked to me for a long time. I guess she liked the whole thing."
They Went Public in 2015
At the Ex Machina premiere, no less:
They Got Married in 2017
A year later, Oscar told GQ Style there were "tons of reasons" why he proposed, explaining "[Elvira]'s Danish—she's not a citizen, and she was very pregnant and there was an element of figuring out, 'Well, where are we going to be?' And us wanting to be a family unit a bit more.But, you know, at the time, right before it happened, my mom was ill, and so I saw [Elvira] carrying my child, bathing my sick mom — seeing her do that, I just thought, 'I want to be with this person forever and ever.' I just wanted to take that extra step as well. And so my mom passed in February and we got married in March and our son was born in April. It was a wild year. I think I'll be processing it for the rest of my life."
They Have Two Kids
Oscar and Elvira welcomed their son, Eugene, in 2017 and their son, Mads, in 2019. Here's a glimpse at their sweet life at home together:
She’s a Filmmaker
Elvira just directed a documentary with Oscar called King Hamlet, which premiered at Telluride Film Festival:
But they've worked together several times before—and Elvira wrote the sweetest post after they finished the short film, The Letter Room, saying in part "Thank you for trusting me to direct you while I was 7 months pregnant. I know that wasn't always easy. Thank you for encouraging me and showing up and doing absolute magic like you always do. And thank you for growing the most impressive moustache I have ever seen. You are the funniest man I know. I love you more than any words can explain on social media."
They Have a Production Company Together
Elvira and Oscar actually founded Mad Gene Media, which is producing an upcoming Apple TV show tentatively titled Bananas, starring Oscar and Ana de Armas with David O. Russell directing.
