Anna Kendrick is making headlines again, but this time it’s not for a new film. The Pitch Perfect star is reportedly in a new relationship with comedian Alex Edelman. After months of speculation, a source has confirmed the romance and revealed some surprising details.
Here’s what we know about Kendrick’s new relationship, how serious it is, and what’s been said so far.
Anna Kendrick and Alex Edelman are dating, claims report
Anna Kendrick is reportedly dating comedian Alex Edelman.
According to People, a source that the two “have been dating for several months.” The source added, “It doesn’t seem casual,” and revealed that Kendrick has already met Edelman’s mother. Paparazzi recently photographed Kendrick and Edelman together in a car in Los Angeles, and they reportedly celebrated his birthday in March.
Kendrick, 39, and Edelman, 36, often spend time at low-key restaurants that celebrities don’t usually visit. The couple has not made any public comments about the relationship, and representatives for both did not respond to the growing speculations yet.
Anna Kendrick’s most recent known relationship was with actor Bill Hader, whom she dated from 2020 to June 2022. Before that, she dated cinematographer Ben Richardson from 2014 to 2020 and director Edgar Wright from 2009 to 2013. She and Hader reportedly broke up after dating for over a year, though neither of them publicly addressed the split.
In October 2024, Kendrick spoke on the Call Her Daddy podcast about a past seven-year relationship that she described as emotionally and psychologically abusive. She said it was hard to identify at the time because it “didn’t follow the traditional pattern.” She also revealed that she and the unnamed ex had created embryos together before the relationship deteriorated.
In a September 2022 People interview tied to her film Alice, Darling, Kendrick said the emotionally abusive relationship portrayed in the film “resonated” with her due to her own experience. She described being in a relationship where she trusted the other person more than herself, leading to significant confusion and emotional distress.
