About Joaquin and Rooney's relationship
Recently, Rooney opened up about parenting with Joaquin on her LaunchLeft podcast. She was in conversation with guest Rain Phoenix, who is Phoenix's sister, and said: "It doesn't feel like a two-actor house because I didn't work for the first three and a half years we were together. Basically, since we've been together, I only worked one or two times and one was really small and short. It feels like a creative household, we're constantly talking about creative things."
A very private couple, Joaquin Phoenix and Rooney Mara met in 2012 on the set of the Spike Jonze film Her. Rooney played his ex-wife in the film. The couple went on to star in Mary Magdalene and will be seen next in acclaimed director Pawel Pawlikowski's next thriller, The Island.
