Who is Elle Fanning's boyfriend?

Elle started dating Gus in late 2023. The magazine executive is the son of Jann Wenner, the co-founder of seminal music and culture magazine Rolling Stone, of which Gus is now Executive Chairman.

While it's unclear how Elle and Gus met or exactly when they started dating, they first sparked romance rumors in November 2023, when they were first seen together, walking hand-in-hand after a dinner in the West Village in New York City.

They made their red carpet debut a few months later, in January 2024 for the Golden Globes, and have made a handful of public appearances together since, including at the 2024 Met Gala, Rolling Stone events, celebrating Elle's premieres, most recently Margo's Got Money Troubles, and they also attended the 2025 US Open with Elle's sister Dakota Fanning.

In January 2026, the Sentimental Value actress gushed about her boyfriend to Who What Wear, Elle said he is "the best."

"We want to be a part of each other's lives and share these fun times and experiences together," she continued explaining why the couple doesn't keep their relationship completely out of the spotlight. "Why hide? The future looks bright."

What is Elle Fanning starring in next?

The actress is fresh off her starring role in the hit Apple TV+ series, Margo's Got Money Troubles. Elle led the star-studded cast, including Michelle Pfeiffer, Nick Offerman, and Nicole Kidman.

In 2027, she is set to star in the film adaptation of Kristin Hannah's wildly popular historical drama film, The Nightingale, alongside her big sister Dakota. This isn't their first time working together.

The famous sisters grew up on-screen together. They starred in their first film together, I Am Sam, at six and two. And in 2021, they launched their Lewellen Pictures, producing series like The Great, Mastermind: To Think Like a Killer, and Margo's Got Money Troubles.

"We're really excited for The Nightingale, which is going to be a big step for us," Elle opened up to Elle in March 2026. "We were going to film it years ago, but then the pandemic happened. Back then, we weren't signed on as producers; the company hadn't formed yet. And now it feels like this is the perfect time to finally do this together, and act together, and get to produce it and have more say."
