Michelle Williams (27) is now dating Spike Jonze (38), who is the ex-husband of Sofia Coppola.

In recent weeks the new couple have been spotted near Jonze’s New York apartment. Williams began dating Jonze after working with him on his new film Synecdoche in New York. Williams first met Jonze in 2006 when she auditioned for his film adaptation of the Maurice Sendak children’s book Where The Wild Things Are.

Pictured above are: Spike Jonze (left) and Michelle Williams (far right), with co-star Catherine Keener (center), at the premiere of Synecdoche, New York at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2008.

I don’t have a good feeling about Jonze. He is divorced, and Williams has a daughter. Hopefully he likes kids. I doubt this relationship will last. It’s going to be hard for Williams to find the right guy to fill Heath Ledger’s shoes.
