Anderson spotted alone

A fan spotted Paul Thomas Anderson walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of March 19, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Paul Thomas back on the market?

A rep for Paul Thomas Anderson was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Friday (March 20), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Paul Thomas’s phone number?”
