All About Alex Edelman, Anna Kendrick’s Boyfriend

Anna Kendrick has a new man in her life. A source recently confirmed to People that the Another Simple Favor actress has been dating Alex Edelman for “several months.” The insider also shared that the couple “celebrated his birthday together in March.” Kendrick has even reportedly met Edelman’s mom. “It doesn’t seem casual,” the source continued. “Anna’s very private, though. They enjoy date night at low-key restaurants that are not your typical celeb hangouts.”

Below, get to know Kendrick’s new boyfriend.

Edelman, 36, is a stand-up comedian and actor. He’s best known for his Broadway show Just for Us, which is now available to stream as a comedy special on HBO Max. Just for Us went on to win a Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special and a Special Tony Award. He’s also a writer and has been published in The New York Times and The Atlantic.

Most recently, the Boston native has been cast in Peacock’s upcoming spinoff of The Office. Variety reported the news and shared that Edelman will also write for the series.

Edelman previously dated Hacks star Hannah Einbinder. The former couple was last publicly photographed together in September 2022 at a Hollywood Reporter and SAG-AFTRA Emmy event in West Hollywood, California. He also accompanied Einbinder to the season 2 premiere of Hacks a few months prior, in May 2022.

In early July 2025, the couple was spotted driving around Los Angeles.
