Jodie Foster is a force to be reckoned with. Not only has she snagged two Academy Awards, but the legendary actress also has three British Academy Film Awards, three Golden Globes and a number of critically acclaimed films under her belt. In fact, just recently, Foster received her second Golden Globes nomination for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Limited Series, Anthology Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television—for her role as Detective Elizabeth Danvers in HBO's True Detective: Night Country.
While talking with GQ about the powerful series and its impact, she said, "It's a double-edged sword, because you want to bring attention to something that's real. Missing and murdered Indigenous women is a real thing. And the crimes go unlooked at, they don't get solved. You don’t want to pretend it doesn’t exist. But at the same time, having two female police officers who care enough about it to say, 'No, we're going to continue to investigate'... There's something beautiful about that."
With awards season fast approaching, fans are now curious to know more about Foster's life behind the cameras—especially her partner, Alexandra Hedison. For instance, when did they get married? And does she work in the entertainment industry? As we all await the 2025 Golden Globes (airing on January 5), here are some details about Jodie Foster’s wife.
