The family are rarely seen together in public. The 70-year-old comedian has been married to his wife Jessica Seinfeld since 1999, and they share three children together: sons Julian, 21, and Shepherd, 18, and daughter Sascha, 23, per People.

Unfrosted is Seinfeld’s directorial film feature debut, marking a milestone moment in his long-time career in the entertainment industry.

“You don’t want to think about that this is a really big, important job. Like, the pilot never wants to come on the PA system and go, ‘I’m going to try and get this plane in the air.’ You have to be confident,” he told People at the premiere.

Here’s everything we know about his supportive family.

Who are Jerry Seinfeld’s parents?
