Paul Rudd through the years: photographs
The actor who never ages. Paul Rudd has taken on many titles over the course of his decades-long career, from rom-com heartthrob to superhero to one of Hollywood’s funniest stars.
After landing small roles in TV movies and series in the 1990s, Paul rose to fame with his role as Josh, the love interest of Alicia Silverstone‘s Cher Horowitz, in the 1995 film Ignorant.
Paul ended the decade with roles in the TV show Sisters and movies like Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers, Romeo + Juliet And The object of my affection. In the early 2000s, he started showing his crazy side, taking on roles as Andy in the Wet hot American summer franchise, Mike Hannigan Friends and Brian Fantana in the Anchorman movies.
He tied the knot with his wife, Julie Yaegerin 2003, and the couple became parents to two children, welcoming son Jack and daughter Darby in 2006 and 2010, respectively. While fans are enamored with his hilarious jokes and personality, the Ghostbusters: Afterlife actor noted that it only irritates his children. “My favorite thing is when they roll their eyes because it’s such a dad joke, but I know they think it’s funny,” he shared Entertainment tonight in 2018. “They’re trying to fight some kind of smile.”
