Actor and musician Nat Wolff is making headlines amid rumors about his dating life, but he has been in the spotlight for years.
The "Death Note" actor, who has been romantically linked to two-time Oscar winner Billie Eilish, first rose to popularity as a Nickelodeon child star before going on to have a career as a full-fledged actor and musician.
The Los Angeles native's first claim to fame was in the Nickelodeon movie and accompanying series "The Naked Brothers Band" alongside brother Alex Wolff. As the duo Nat & Alex Wolff, the band has been opening for Eilish's Hit Me Hard and Soft tour since 2024. And last June, Wolff starred in the dizzying video for the singer's track "Chihiro." Neither Eilish, 23, nor Wolff, 30, has spoken publicly about their relationship status.
As dating speculation swirls, here's what to know about the actor-singer.
Who is Nat Wolff?
Wolff, 30, is an actor and musician who rose to popularity in the Nickelodeon movie and its accompanying series "The Naked Brothers Band" alongside his brother and fellow musician Alex Wolff — a series about a fictional band created by his actress mother, Polly Draper, with music produced by their musician father, Michael Wolff. The latter starred in the series as the pair's onscreen dad.
One of the tracks from the series, "Crazy Car," ranked on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2007, making a 9-year-old Nat Wolff one of the youngest people ever to have a song appear on the Billboard chart.
The brothers would go on to form the real pop-rock band Nat & Alex Wolff, later releasing three studio albums: "Black Sheep" (2011), "Public Places" (2016) and "Table for Two" (2023).
The band has opened for Eilish's Hit Me Hard and Soft tour since September 2024. The tour most recently arrived in Italy on June 8, and is set to wrap in late September in San Francisco.
Nat Wolff's acting career has taken off since his days as a child star. He's known for the films "Paper Towns," "Palo Alto," "The Fault in Our Stars" and Netflix's movie adaptation of "Death Note."
What has Nat Wolff said about Billie Eilish?
Although neither has officially confirmed the romance, Nat Wolff has opened up about his and his brother's friendship with Eilish as well as working with the Grammy Award winner.
In October, Nat Wolff told Variety that the trio bonded over having Tourette syndrome.
"Even when I saw Billie on interviews, I said, 'Oh, she's one of us,'" he told the outlet. "We know all the ways that we try to mute ourselves or try and chill ourselves out or soften ourselves for other people, and how nice it is to not have to do that for certain people."
In her self-directed video for "Chihiro," Eilish and Wolff are at each other's throats but can't seem to shake one another. Eilish, at the time, said the video represented the characters' "inescapable connection."
Following the release of the video, Wolff took to social media to praise Eilish for the "arresting" music video, calling the singer "my (favorite) artist and (favorite) human" in an Instagram post. "Not only is she a genius singer and songwriter but also an amazing director and editor."
Eilish returned the admiration in her own Instagram post, writing, "One of my favorite videos I've made (and) truly one of the greatest days of my life. Hahahaaaa Nat, love you so much. Thank you for being a part of this."
