Barry Jenkins has confirmed he and Lulu Wang just got married!

The 45-year-old Mufasa: The Lion King director unveiled the exciting news last week while attending the premiere of the upcoming Disney movie.

Barry and Lulu just tied the knot this past weekend, and made their red carpet debut as a married couple at the Mufasa premiere on Monday (December 9).

“It feels good, man,” he told People at the premiere. “You know, we’ve been together for quite some time. We do the same thing, and when I started this project she was very heavily involved. You know, and then sort of, like, convincing me to at least consider reading the script.”

“And so it’s really wonderful. I think the presentation of this film and what happened this weekend, it feels like the completion of a cycle for us,” he added.

Barry also shared what it’s like with them having the same job – they’re both filmmakers and directors!

“I think when you do something that’s very strange — which, I think directing movies is strange — it’s really wonderful to go home and there’s someone there who also does the same thing,” he said. “So they understand all your weirdness and all your strangeness, and they can help you navigate it.”

In addition to Mufasa, Barry has helmed The Underground Railroad mini series, If Beale Street Could Talk and Moonlight, for which he was nominated for Oscars in the Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay categories, the latter he won.

Lulu created and directed the series Expats, which stars Nicole Kidman on Prime Video, and she has also directed the movies The Farewell and Posthumous, along with writing both!

Congratulations to the happy couple on their nuptials!!
