It's a truth universally acknowledged that if you watched The Princess Diaries, you probably loved the adorkable Michael Moscovitz, the smart, and goofily cute older brother of Mia's best friend who loved her just the way she was, even before the Princess-y makeover.
Well, if you're wondering whatever happened to the guy that played Michael (Robert Schwartzman), here he is:

After The Princess Diaries, Robert focused on his music, as a part of the band Rooney. You might remember them because they were kind of big in the early 2000s and appeared on The OC (the one where Seth and Summer and Anna are in that weird love triangle). He told Seventeen:

"Really, it was all about my band even before I got the part in [The Princess Diaries]. I've always been real close to film world. I love film, and I will do things in film, but music is more satisfying. It feels more like me."
Robert then went solo in 2011, and according to Bustle (opens in new tab), did cool things like creating the score for film Palo Alto and an app called 22, which involved artists sending music messages to their fans.
A look at his Instagram tells us he's also big into rescuing animals.
