About this listen
Cooper Hoffman has stepped firmly into the spotlight over the past week, blending breakout performances with deeply personal reflections on family and fame. In a widely discussed new GQ interview, Cooper opened up about how the shadow of his father, the legendary Philip Seymour Hoffman, initially made him resist acting altogether—he even considered becoming a fashion designer and attending Central Saint Martins. But director Paul Thomas Anderson, who had worked repeatedly with Philip Seymour Hoffman, convinced Cooper to take the leap, resulting in a much-lauded debut in Licorice Pizza. Cooper candidly told GQ and the Today Show that being constantly compared to his Oscar-winning father once felt like an unbearable burden but now feels like an honorable challenge. He admits he sometimes wishes he could call his dad for advice, but is learning to chart his own path, grateful for the legacy but determined to forge his own narrative, recently reflected by ABC News and GQ.
His career momentum is unmistakable. Cooper stars in the Stephen King adaptation, The Long Walk, due to open September 12. He described the grueling shoot, recounting to the Today Show and AV Club how the cast walked 15 miles a day in oppressive summer heat to capture the dystopian story’s bleak reality. Despite exhaustion, Cooper said the experience bonded the cast and crystallized his passion for acting, though he still feels open to new directions in the future. Next up, he’s tapped for the AI-themed feature Artificial, directed by Luca Guadagnino and centered on the dramatic 2023 boardroom battles at OpenAI—a project that promises to both expand his range and keep him tethered to topical material, as reported by Deadline and ABC News.
Meanwhile, Cooper continues to attract attention beyond the screen. Social media has been buzzing over his rumored romance with co-star Nico Parker—daughter of Thandiwe Newton—with Cosmopolitan and Just Jared chronicling their joint appearances at Paris Fashion Week and the Toronto International Film Festival. Fans dissected photos of Cooper and Nico in color-coordinated outfits and affectionate moments, fueling relationship rumors with every Instagram post and candid snapshot.
Business-wise, there are no reported entrepreneurial ventures or endorsements this week, but the strategic project choices and increasing media presence suggest Cooper is taking careful steps to define his own brand.
No major negative headlines or controversies have surfaced in the past 24 hours, but the young star’s bio continues to be shaped by his heartfelt candor, ambitious roles, and intriguing public presence.
