Who Is Jonah Hill?

Jonah Hill is an American actor and filmmaker whose career has moved from the defining comedies of the late 2000s to two Academy Award nominations for Best Supporting Actor. He first became known as Seth in Superbad (2007), his first leading role, opposite Michael Cera, and he went on to star in Knocked Up (2007), Get Him to the Greek (2010), 21 Jump Street (2012) and This Is the End (2013). He earned his first Oscar nomination for playing Peter Brand in the baseball drama Moneyball (2011) and his second for playing Donnie Azoff in Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) — a role for which he famously accepted the Screen Actors Guild minimum salary of $60,000.

Since then, Hill has built a second career behind the camera. He made his feature directorial debut with Mid90s (2018), a coming-of-age film drawn from his own youth in Los Angeles skate culture, directed the Netflix documentary Stutz (2022) about his therapist, and wrote, directed and starred in Outcome (2026), released on Apple TV. Like fellow comedians Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd, Hill has moved between broad comedy, prestige drama and directing — and, like them, he has kept working with the same circle of collaborators for more than two decades.

Jonah Hill’s Early Life & Background

Jonah Hill Feldstein was born on December 20, 1983, in Los Angeles, California. His mother, Sharon Lyn Chalkin, was a costume designer and fashion stylist, and his father, Richard Feldstein, was a tour accountant for Guns N’ Roses. His younger sister is the actress Beanie Feldstein, born in 1993, and his older brother, Jordan Feldstein (1977–2017), was a music manager for Robin Thicke and Maroon 5 until his sudden death at 40 from a pulmonary embolism. His parents were originally from Long Island, New York, and he was raised in the Cheviot Hills neighbourhood of Los Angeles, where he continues to reside. He is Jewish and had a bar mitzvah.

He attended the Center for Early Education, Brentwood School and Crossroads School in Santa Monica, and worked at the Hot Rod Skateboard Shop on Westwood Boulevard. After graduating from high school in 2002, he attended The New School, Bard College and the University of Colorado Boulder, but did not earn a degree. In college, he began writing one-act plays and performing them in the Black and White bar in New York’s East Village. Dustin Hoffman’s children, Rebecca and Jake, were friends of his, and they introduced him to their father — who asked Hill to audition for I Heart Huckabees, which became his film debut in 2004.

Jonah Hill’s Career

After I Heart Huckabees, Hill built his career with supporting roles in The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005), Grandma’s Boy (2006), Accepted and Click (2006), in which he played Adam Sandler’s son, and Knocked Up (2007). His breakthrough came the same year with Superbad, in which he played Seth, a high-school senior trying to buy alcohol for a party; the film is often cited as the one that launched both Hill’s and Michael Cera’s careers. He hosted Saturday Night Live for the first time in March 2008, appeared in Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008), served as associate producer on Brüno (2009) and starred in Funny People (2009) and Get Him to the Greek (2010). He turned down a role as one of the three principals in The Hangover to work with the Duplass brothers on Cyrus (2010), and created the Fox animated series Allen Gregory (2011), which was cancelled after one season.

Hill’s career changed direction in 2011 with Moneyball, in which he played Peter Brand, the Yale economics graduate who helps Brad Pitt’s Billy Beane rebuild the Oakland Athletics using analytics. The performance earned him a Golden Globe nomination and his first Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. He returned to comedy with 21 Jump Street (2012), which he co-wrote and executive-produced with Channing Tatum, and appeared in a small role in Django Unchained (2012) and as himself in This Is the End (2013). His second Oscar nomination came for The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), in which he played Donnie Azoff, the right-hand man of Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jordan Belfort. He then voiced Green Lantern in The Lego Movie (2014), starred in 22 Jump Street (2014), played Michael Finkel in True Story (2015), appeared in Hail, Caesar! (2016) and War Dogs (2016), and voiced Carl in Sausage Party (2016), for which he also wrote the story and served as executive producer.

In 2018 Hill made the transition to directing with Mid90s, which he wrote and directed and which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 9, 2018. That same year he starred opposite Emma Stone in the Netflix limited series Maniac and appeared in Gus Van Sant’s Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot. He directed music videos for Sara Bareilles, Danny Brown, Travis Scott and Vampire Weekend, appeared in The Beach Bum (2019) and Don’t Look Up (2021) as Jason Orlean, the president’s son and chief of staff, and in 2022 directed Stutz, a Netflix documentary about his therapist, the psychiatrist Phil Stutz. In 2023 he co-wrote, produced and starred in the Netflix romantic comedy You People with Eddie Murphy, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Lauren London. He returned to directing with Outcome (2026), which he co-wrote with Ezra Woods and in which he stars alongside Keanu Reeves and Cameron Diaz; it was released on Apple TV on April 10, 2026. He is also set to play Jerry Garcia in a Grateful Dead biopic directed by Martin Scorsese, which he will produce under his Strong Baby banner.
