Acting Career

Elordi got his start early as a model. Back in 2014, he won first prize in the under-seventeen category at a Melbourne fashion show. He then started appearing in short films, though they didn't reach a wide audience. For one of them, "Max & Losefa," Elordi wrote the script himself.

In 2017, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" hit theaters with Johnny Depp once again taking center stage. Jacob had a small, uncredited role in this Disney franchise installment.

In 2018, two films featuring Elordi were released: "Swinging Safari" with Kylie Minogue and Guy Pearce, and the teenage melodramatic comedy "The Kissing Booth" from streaming service Netflix. While Jacob was just one of many big-name stars in the first film, he landed the lead role in the second, starring opposite Joey King.

The moment the film premiered, Jacob became an overnight sensation. For the role of Noah Flynn, the actor learned to ride a motorcycle, although he could have used a stunt double.

In summer 2019, Netflix dropped the teen series "Euphoria," where creators tackled major issues facing young people: self-acceptance, sexual identity, addiction, bullying, and childhood trauma. His character Nate – a cruel athlete who seems like the obvious villain at first – allowed Jacob to dig deeper, revealing what drives his aggression and toxic masculinity.

Jacob Elordi's Personal Life

Jacob Elordi met actress Joey King on the set of "The Kissing Booth" in 2017. They played a couple in love, spending up to 17 hours a day on set, so it's no surprise they started dating almost immediately and went public with their relationship.

In November 2018, the couple hinted at their breakup through their respective Instagram accounts. A few months later, they had to work together again on "The Kissing Booth" sequel and pretend to be in love on screen. While fans hoped for a reunion, the actor got romantically involved with "Spider-Man" star Zendaya, whom he met on the "Euphoria" set. Relationship rumors weren't confirmed until the couple was spotted kissing in New York.

Soon after, however, the actor was spotted walking arm in arm with actress Kaia Gerber, daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford. On Halloween 2020, they showed up together—him dressed as Elvis, her as his wife Priscilla. The couple dated for a year before breaking up in November 2020.

Just a month later, Elordi got seriously involved with YouTube star Olivia Gianulli, daughter of actress Lori Loughlin and fashion designer Mossimo Gianulli. Breakup rumors that surfaced in May 2022 were never confirmed.

In 2023, Sofia Coppola's movie "Priscilla" was released. Jacob Elordi landed one of the lead roles - Elvis Presley. To prepare for the role, he studied the memoirs of Priscilla Presley, Elvis's only wife, played in the film by Cailee Spaeny, and gained weight by eating bacon and hamburgers.

Ironically, before landing this role, Jacob knew nothing about the king of rock-and-roll. After he said "All I knew about Elvis: he was in the cartoon 'Lilo and Stitch'. And that's a lot of information about him," Presley's outraged fans came after the actor. This didn't prevent the film's success: it won the Volpi Cup and was nominated for the main award of the Venice Film Festival.

Together with Barry Keoghan and Rosamund Pike, Jacob starred in the drama "Saltburn", transforming into the aristocrat Felix Catton, who invites his friend, a student from a simple family, to his luxurious mansion for the holidays.
