Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz Welcome Baby Boy

Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz have welcomed a child to their family, reports the Spanish magazine Hola. The pair, who have each received an Academy Award in their careers (Bardem for 2007's "No Country for Old Men" and Cruz for "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" in 2008, in which the couple co-starred). The baby boy was reportedly born last night in Los Angeles.

Yesterday, Bardem was announced to have received another Academy Award nomination, for "Biutiful", which is also up for the Best Foreign Language Film Award.

Penélope Cruz burst onto the scene in her native Spain in the early 1990s and quickly established herself as a talent to be reckoned with in any language. A longtime critical darling on the international film circuit, Cruz was a favorite creative muse of famed Spanish auteur Pedro Almodóvar. But it was after she crossed the Atlantic that Cruz truly became a global superstar. She has been seen in the films "Vanilla Sky", "All About My Mother" among many others and could be seen in the movie adaption of the musical "NINE".

Javier Bardem rose to fame in the 1992 Spanish film "Jamón, jamón" opposite Penélope Cruz. However, his Hollywood success came in the form of "Before Night Falls" in 2000. He continued to star in a string of critically  performances until 2007's "No Country for Old Men", for which his performance was widely lauded and he received the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He will also appear on the massively popular FOX show GLEE later this year.
