Elle Fanning Boyfriend Max Minghella Is An Actor With An Impressive Net Worth

According to CelebrityNetWorth, the English actor and screenwriter Max Minghella has a $3 million net worth. Besides having a successful life, he is also known as the son of late director Anthony Minghella and dancer/ choreographer Carolyn Jane Choa. 

He has appeared in several movies and TV series, but he also has a diverse range of entertainment careers, which helped him earn such an impressive fortune. 

Max Is An Actor

It may sound like a weird story, but Max thought that saying he wanted to be an actor would sound uncool. Thus, he did not always want to be an actor. He thought he would be a music video director until he was 16. 

In his late teens, he was inspired to become an actor. But, it was also thanks to a play named This Is Our Youth in London's West End which motivated him to pursue his career. 

He has a role as an extra in his father's movie, Cold Mountains, but his professional role was in Bee Season. Since then, he has featured in several films like Syriana, Art School Confidential, Elvis and Anabelle, How to Lose Friends & Alienate People, Vincent Lepak, Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, Kevin (Subject No. 28), and Agora.

However, his role on the Social Network as Divya Narendra and Richie Castellano on The Mindy Project from 2013 until 2017 made him more popular among the public. Additionally, he featured as Nick Blaine in the 2017 season of The Handmaid's Tale. 

He Is Also A Well-Known Director

Besides being an actor, he is also a director. He made his first directorial debut in 2018 with the movie Teen Spirit. He is also interested in directing, as he even thought of becoming a music director until he was 16. 

Minghella Produces Movies As Well 

Minghella has produced movies like The 9th Life of Louis Drax. It was a supernatural thriller film that released in 2016. He was also the writer of the film. 

He Even Worked As a Screenwriter For a Few Movies 

He is a screenwriter for The 9th Life of Louis Drax and Teen Spirit. His father was also a director and screenwriter. Thus, some say that he may have inherited the interest in the field and the operations. 

Max Minghella is the boyfriend of Elle Fanning. The couple has been dating since 2018, and their love goes strong every year. 

They rarely share details about their love life, but fans are curious to learn more about her boyfriend and the story of how they met. 

Max Met Elle In The Sets Of Teen Spirit 

Teen Spirit was not only the beginning of his directorial career but also the start of new love in his life. He met his girlfriend, Elle Fanning, in the Teens girls' set. 

The couple has shared that they love working together, and the actress said it was special. Likewise, Max also did not forget to compliment his partner, saying she was the only actress who could have carried the movie as there were too many requirements. 

The character has to be able to sing, dance, speak the Polish language and have a British accent. Despite such difficult requirements, he added that she completed the film shoot with discipline and professionalism. 

The pair were first spotted in July 2018 in Florence, Italy, as per US weekly reports. They usually keep their romantic lives private but are sometimes seen together going on dates. In August 2018, they were seen going on a date in London. 

But they made their red carpet debut as a couple at the annual Met Gala in May 2019.
