Roman got his first producing credit at 18 on Rumble Fish and has been in the family business ever since.
In addition to his own directing work, he has collaborated on most of Wes Anderson‘s films, sharing a Best Original Screenplay nomination in 2013 for Moonrise Kingdom.
In 2007, he and Sofia took ownership of American Zoetrope, the production company their father cofounded with George Lucas.
Roman shares sons Alessandro and Marcello, as well as daughter Pascal, with wife Jennifer Furches.
“I’d like my kids to have the experiences I had as a kid, being on my dad’s movie sets,” Roman told the New Yorker in 2020. “Like, ‘Oh, they’re doing the napalm drop today, so I’m going to skip school,’ which in retrospect was kind of remarkable.”
