Many other members of Schwartzman’s family are involved in film; he is the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola, cousin of Nicolas Cage, Sofia Coppola, Roman Coppola and Christopher Coppola, and grandson of Italia Coppola (née Pennino) and Carmine Coppola. His brother is actor/musician Robert Schwartzman (vocalist for the band Rooney), and his half-brother is cinematographer John Schwartzman. Schwartzman is of Italian descent on his mother’s side and Jewish descent on his father’s, and was raised without religion.[1] Schwartzman has a bulldog named Arrow and a cat named Extra Mayo.
