Successful movie after successful movie. Fans are wondering what happened to Jacob Elordi after viral headlines and posts of an alleged assault. 2023 was a pivotal year for Elordi. The actor starred in Sofia Coppola’s Priscila and Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn which gained large popularity close to awards season.

He told Vanity Fair about what’s next in his career after such a successful year. “I think it’s always changing,” he said The one thing that I’m lucky enough now to have is the ability to kind of choose a little bit. I just want to work with artists. I’ve loved art my whole life, really, and I just want to work with filmmakers who have a specific point of view, or a feeling about something, and they want to leave that mark on the world and in history. That’s what movies are to me.

Though with fame, comes a hefty price. GQ’s November 2023 profile described him as someone who cares much about his privacy. “People are paying attention to him, looking for cracks in the façade of mystery. They’re invested in his personal relationships (he shuts down any questions about his romantic life with a cheeky “but I appreciate you giving me the space”) and fixated on his personal style (he has been spotted with an array of designer bags to rival any fashion editor’s). As appealing as he is in an old-school way, he still has to deal with the new-school version of fame. This can pain Elordi. He harbors big, artistic ambitions, in an industry hungry to put guys like him in superhero spandex or a streaming property that fans can binge while scrolling through their phones. He deeply values his privacy, even as every outing can result in tabloid photos. Sure, the public has been obsessed with movie stars since they invented movie stars, but at least those guys could still have some mystique.

So what happened to Jacob Elordi? Read more to find out.
