It is known that as a teenager, Jason Lee attended Lee Strasberg's classes. She played her first role at the age of nine, and popularity came to the artist after the release of the youth film Rapid Changes at Ridgemont High School, in which Jennifer got the main role.

After the premiere, Lee received good reviews from critics and an MTV Award for Best Movie Villain. The following year, the actress appeared in the film "Short Stories" by Robert Altman, and then starred in the film by the Coen brothers "Hudsaker's Handy".

In 2016, fans saw their favorite in the sci-fi movie Morgan directed by Luke Scott. An accident elimination officer is sent to a remote, secret branch, where she must investigate and assess the losses from the accident. On the spot, the young lady learns that what happened was the work of a man whose existence is a mystery in itself.

Despite her popularity, Jennifer still manages not to make her private life public. No matter how hard the media representatives tried, they failed to find compromising information on the actress.

It is known that from 2005 to 2013, Jason was married to director Noah Baumbach, in the marriage with whom the artist gave birth to a boy, Romer Emmanuel Baumbach.

A couple of days after the move, strange phenomena begin to occur in the house, including the miraculous healing of the brother. As it turns out later, the mother hid from the children the fact that their new refuge is the infamous Amityville house, in which the murder took place earlier.

In the same year, the filmography of the actress was replenished with the series "Twin Peaks" and the crime drama "Good Time".
