Emerging as one of Hollywood's most prominent young talents, Timothée Chalamet first appeared in 2014 with the dramedy Men, Women & Children before featuring in Christopher Nolan's sci-fi spectacle Interstellar. His breakout came in 2017, portraying a tenderly lovestruck youth in Luca Guadagnino's Call Me By Your Name, earning his first Oscar nomination for Best Actor as one of the category's youngest contenders.

In the years following, Chalamet balanced notable supporting turns in Greta Gerwig's Lady Bird (2017) and Little Women (2019) with a riveting lead in Beautiful Boy (2018), embodying the harrowing struggles of a drug addict. His ascent continued with commanding performances in big-budget productions, most notably as Paul Atreides in Denis Villeneuve's Dune saga and as the whimsical chocolatier in Wonka (2023).

Demonstrating both range and creative ambition, Chalamet portrayed Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown (2024), the role securing him a second Academy Award nomination and the historic achievement of becoming...

When you first watched Steve Carell’s The 40-Year-Old Virgin did you ever imagine a namedrop appearing for Kelly Clarkson? Turns out, in the 2005 comedy during a real-life chest waxing scene, that later became a part of pop culture, Carell’s character, Andy screamed the pop star’s name.

In the particular scene, Andy gets his chest waxed for the very first time leaving audiences in stitches over his painful, loud screams, and random words flying out of his mouth. During that sequence, Steve Carell’s one scream becomes a standout moment where he shouts out “Kelly Clarkson”.

Yes, in the middle of all that pain, he yelled the name of the famous American Idol winner. But why? Well, turns out this hilarious shout wasn’t planned by Steve Carell himself. It was actually written down by none other than actor Seth Rogen. Eventually, the line became so iconic that even Kelly Clarkson addressed it.

Long before Timothée Chalamet picked up the guitar to be Bob Dylan, the actor delivered one of the most emotionally shattering performances of his career in Beautiful Boy. The 2018 autobiographical movie directed by Felix Van Groeningen is based on the memoirs of David and Nic Sheff.

Chalamet perfectly channelled a young man spiraling into meth addiction, and Steve Carell played his heartbroken father. The film earned several nominations and didn’t exactly go unnoticed; moreover, Chalamet received immense praise for his work. But the Academy didn’t nominate him, even though it’s his most Oscar-worthy biopic, probably more than A Complete Unknown.

One of the most recognizable stars of the century has shared his real feelings about one of the momentous moments in modern TV history.

This year, the most popular American sitcom of the 2000s celebrated its 20th anniversary. While the original British version of certainly made a significant impact in the comedy landscape, the American adaptation has more than usurped it in terms of its ubiquity and recognizability in the popular culture zeitgeist, much of which is due to the series' ensemble cast. During what is widely considered its golden era, the Scranton, Pennsylvania branch of the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company was led by its regional manager, Michael Scott (Steve Carell). Although the character began the series with a more abrasive, odious demeanor, Michael was rewritten to be more likable, while keeping many of his eccentricities. Even with some of his bizarre methods of leadership, Michael became one of the...

“The Waterfront,” the first Netflix original from “Vampire Diaries” and “Scream” producer Kevin Williamson, follows the efforts of the Buckley family to preserve their business legacy in a small beach town of North Carolina, which involves diving head-first into the drug smuggling business. As the family grapples with stepping into criminal activity, the tension also incentivizes complicated dynamics, from father and son to siblings and romantic entanglements.

The show relies on its cast to convey all the nuances at play between the Buckleys and the people around them. Thankfully, Williamson enlisted a collection of TV favorites to embody the show’s complicated subjects.

Here are the characters you need to know in “The Waterfront,” as well as the actors who play them and where you might have seen them before.

Exclusive: Here’s a first look at Thena, the gritty debut from filmmaker Peter Gold ahead of its world premiere at the Taormina Film Festival on June 14.

The film stars Izabel Pakzad, Dakota Lotus, Chris Bauer and Virginia Gardner, and is based around a young musician from Palo Alto who spirals into drug addiction in San Francisco.

Her devoted younger brother risks everything to find her, and the film follows him as he ventures into San Francisco’s darkest corners, discovering that some people don’t want to be saved and that love isn’t always enough to bring them home.

Pakzad (Find Your Friends) is the titular Thena. She stars alongside Dakota Lotus (Coop & Cami Ask the World), who plays her brother Ovid, Chris Bauer (The Wire, True Blood), Virginia Gardner, Will Peltz (Euphoria), Malia Baker (Descendants: The Rise of Red), Duke Nicholson (Us), Brian Marc (White...

Judging by the sudden spike in high-concept AIDS allegories hitting the festival circuit, it must have been the shock of Covid-19 that sent so many artists’ minds racing back to that previous pandemic. In many ways, the mistakes in handling that crisis taught us how to approach subsequent outbreaks in a more humane way.

Premiering in competition at the Cannes Film Festival two years after “Titane” took the Palme d’Or, Julia Ducournau’s “Alpha” is one of three science fiction entries at this year’s fest in which an imaginary, allegorical illness allows a filmmaker to revisit the trauma and tragedy of the AIDS crisis. “Alpha” is by far the most exasperating of these movies, at once bluntly obvious and maddeningly unclear, taking as its protagonist a 13-year-old girl (Mélissa Boros) who comes home from a party with a crude homemade tattoo.

What was the needle like? Was it clean or dirty?...

2011 was a huge year for Kaitlyn Dever. Though she was only 14 at the time, the up-and-coming actor booked small parts in two high profile movies ("Bad Teacher" and Clint Eastwood's "J. Edgar"), popped as tough Kentucky cookie Loretta McCready in the magnificent second season of "Justified," and joined the main cast of Tim Allen's new sitcom "Last Man Standing." That's quite a range of shows and films, and this ensured Dever would get to flaunt her burgeoning talent all the way across the demographic spectrum.

For families with young viewers, "Last Man Standing" was the kind of relentlessly inoffensive sitcom they could watch together without worrying there'd be a ribald gag or profanity. Say what you will about Allen (and I'm quite certain the cocaine dealers he snitched on in 1978 to avoid serving a length prison sentence have said plenty about him), he knows what his audience expects from him,...

How Did Steve Carell React To Timothée Chalamet’s Drastic Weight Loss? ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Timothée Chalamet went all in for Beautiful Boy, losing more weight than planned. His co-star, Steve Carell, eventually stepped in. Playing meth-addicted Nic Sheff, Chalamet’s transformation was intense – pushing his body to the limit for the memoir-based drama.

That meant dropping weight fast. In a conversation with Emma Stone during a Variety interview, he admitted, “I lost what was supposed to be 15 [pounds] and then it was 18.” Stone, taken aback, asked how he even managed that. Chalamet explained, “It’s just very hyper-concentrated portions of nutrients… Did you see Snowpiercer? It’s like the protein goo.” He laughed, but the process was grueling.

The physical toll extended beyond just looking the part. Timothee Chalamet felt the weight loss altered his energy, presence, and even how others reacted to him. Steve Carell, who played Nic’s father,...

After punching above his weight in the Indie landscape, in recent years, Timothée Chalamet has become the face of one of the most acclaimed action IPs of the modern era, Dune. But during his initial years in showbiz, Chalamet was unsure about his future in the genre, especially after being rejected from several projects, including the Maze Runner franchise.

As a result, the actor recalled being told by his agents that he wasn’t built for such roles, which pushed the Dune star to change his approach.

Despite being adamant about putting on weight to fit the criteria for major action projects, Chalamet confessed that he just couldn’t gain weight, adding “I couldn’t! I basically couldn’t”. Being a big fan...

Timothée Chalamet has undeniably become one of film’s most sought after stars. Throughout his entire career, the actor has always managed to steal the spotlight, whether it was in the modest thriller One & Two or big-budget franchises likeDune, Chalamet is a once-in-a-generation talent, something the actor proved early into his career. Chalamet’s rise to prominence truly came about with his performance as Elio Perlman in Luca Guadagnino’s stunning queer romance, Call Me by Your Name, making him the youngest Best Actor nominee in over 80 years. Now, Chalamet has once again caught the Academy’s attention, and has been nominated for his performance as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. While this is a great accomplishment for the actor, his second nomination really should have been for his work in Beautiful Boy. Based on the memoirs of Nic Sheff and his father, David Sheff, Chalamet gives one of the finest,...

Timothée Chalamet’s expression was one of genuine shock when he heard his name called out at the 31st annual Screen Actors Guild Awards. However, the talented thespian has his sights set on much more than simply his SAG honor for Outstanding Male Actor in a Leading Role.No, Chalamet doesn’t have any intention of resting on his laurels, and the star of A Complete Unknown made it crystal clear during his acceptance speech that he wants to be one of Hollywood's “greats.” Chalamet said:

"I can’t downplay the significance of this award [known as The Actor] because it means the most to me, and I know we’re in a subjective business, but the truth is I’m really in the pursuit of greatness. I know people usually don’t talk like that, but I want to be one of the greats. I’m inspired by the greats. I’m inspired by the greats here tonight.

Timothée Chalamet had a mic-drop moment at the SAG Awards on Sunday, singing his way to a Best Actor win for playing Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown.

Chalamet, who was in second place in the Gold Derby odds, beat Adrien Brody (The Brutalist), Daniel Craig (Queer), Colman Domingo (Sing Sing), and Ralph Fiennes (Conclave).

"I know the classiest thing would be to downplay the effort that went into this role and how much this means to me," Chalamet said during his acceptance speech. "The truth is that this was five-and-a-half years of my life. I poured everything that I had into playing this incomparable artist, Mr. Bob Dylan — a true American hero. It was the honor of a lifetime to play him."

After thanking his costars, Chalamet proudly proclaimed, "I know we're in a subjective business, but the truth is, I'm in pursuit of greatness. I know people don't usually talk like that,...

In a “simple twist of fate,” Timothée Chalamet has made history.

Chalamet won his first major awards precursor for his transformational performance as Bob Dylan in James Mangold’s biopic “A Complete Unknown.”

“I know we’re in a subjective business, but the truth is, I’m really in pursuit of greatness,” Chalamet said while accepting his award. “I know people don’t usually talk like that, but I want to be one of the greats. I’m inspired by the greats. I’m inspired by the greats here tonight. I’m as inspired by Daniel Day Lewis, Marlon Brando and Viola Davis as I am by Michael Jordan, Michael Phelps, and I want to be up there. So I’m deeply grateful. This doesn’t signify that, but it’s a little more fuel. It’s a little more ammo to keep going. Thank you so much.”

We are used to seeing him as a funny guy. From The 40-Year-Old Virgin to The Office, Steve Carell has been excellent at landing some of the best iconic roles. He completely blew us away when he took on a dark, serious role as the real eccentric, multi-billionaire John du Pont in Foxcatcher. Based on a true story, the film centers on U.S. Olympic wrestling champion brothers who join Du Pont's "Team Foxcatcher" to train for the 1988 Olympic Games in South Korea. Bennett Miller—the director of Capote and Moneyball—tells the story of Olympic champions Mark Schultz and David Schultz joining the team of a billionaire who is not all who he seems. From the moment Carell appears on-screen, audiences may have to take a double take because it's easy to instantly forget that it is him on screen. Carell has starred in other serious roles, such...

Soap opera veteran Bruce French has died. The actor who portrayed Father Lonigan on Passions was 79 years old. French was the husband of Days of Our Lives alum Eileen Barnett.

Rest In Peace

The Hollywood Reporter reported that French passed away on Friday in Los Angeles due to complications from Alzheimer’s. He was diagnosed with the disease four years ago. French was born on July 4, 1945, in Reinbeck, Iowa. He earned a degree from the University of Iowa, and he served with the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. Finally, French studied acting at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts.

On Passions, French portrayed the blind Father Lonigan for the show’s entire nine seasons from 1999 to 2008. On the soap, baddie Alistair Crane (David Bailey; John Reilly) caused the Father to lose his sight.

He began his acting career in 1972 in the off-Broadway play, The Shadow of a Gunman.

Bruce French, the dependable character actor who did lots of work for the theater and portrayed Father Lonigan, the blind priest on the soap opera Passions who somehow could sense that evil was imminent, has died. He was 79.

French died Friday in Los Angeles of complications from Alzheimer’s, his wife of 34 years, longtime Days of Our Lives actress Eileen Barnett, told The Hollywood Reporter.

The Iowa native, who has more than 150 acting credits on IMDb, guest-starred for David E. Kelley on such shows as L.A. Law, Picket Fences, Ally McBeal, The Practice, Boston Public and Boston Legal, and he appeared on three Star Trek series — The Next Generation, Voyager and Enterprise — and in the 1998 film Star Trek: Insurrection.

Plus, he played the wealthy neighbor of Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver’s shifty characters on both seasons of the 2007-08 FX drama The Riches.

French recurred as the kind-hearted...

Timothee Chalamet has quickly emerged as one of the more unique Hollywood leading men in recent years. With his lanky frame, brooding vigor and deeply felt sensitivity, the young man has become one of the most notable stars of his generation. His career began in TV movies and series, with recurring roles on such shows as Homeland and Royal Pains. He made his film debut in the Jason Reitman film Men, Women & Children in a relatively minor part. Those smaller roles continued through 2016 in films like Interstellar and The Adderall Diaries, playing younger versions of principal characters.

While Chalamet had a handful of substantial roles in indie movies, like 2016’s Miss Julie, everything changed the following year with the release of Call Me by Your Name. The actor’s sensitive portrayal of a 17-year-old finding his first great love garnered universal praise and landed him an Oscar nomination for Best Actor.

The film is set to have its world premiere at this year’s SXSW Film Festival in March.

Deeper follows cave diver Richard “Harry” Harris, best known for his role in the death-defying rescue of a youth Thai soccer team that was trapped deep inside a cave for over two weeks. The film’s synopsis reads: Harris embarks on a perilous new cave diving expedition that will push the limits of adventure and force him to confront his deepest fears. There’s no question that this is the highest-stakes dive he has ever attempted. Underground, underwater, with a finite amount of gas to breathe, it’s a dangerous game to play.

Apple TV+’s The Morning Show has emerged as one of the best-performing projects from the streaming platform. Apple shocked the world when it outbid most streaming services to have the rights to the show marking Jennifer Aniston’s return to television. This proved to be a winning bet.

With its dynamic storyline and complex characters, The Morning Show boasts a star-studded cast including Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carell. It is enhanced by a remarkably talented supporting cast including Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and others. These actors embody their characters and are crucial to the show’s success.

Timothée Chalamet learned to play guitar and sing like Bob Dylan for “A Complete Unknown.” He also gained 20 pounds to look more like the folk music legend, he revealed an interview with NPR.

“I’ve turned over every stone. I did all the work, like you just described, physicality, behavior-wise,” Chalamet told “All Things Considered” host Ailsa Chang. “But something we haven’t really talked about, I also put on 20 pounds because, believe it or not, I was thinner than the guy.”

Chalamet is nominated for best actor for his performance in the James Mangold film, which chronicles Dylan’s arrival in New York City at age 19 in 1961 to his transformative “going electric” moment at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival.

The 29-year-old actor previously spoke about his body type in a November interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe.

“If I auditioned for ‘The Maze Runner’ or ‘Divergent,’ things of that...

Timothée Chalamet returns to Saturday Night Live this week to host for the second time. He brings along a new Oscar nomination for A Complete Unknown as well as an impressive net worth.

Chalamet, 29, first hosted in December 2020. It came between the release of Little Women and Dune, two of the biggest projects on the actor's resume.

His second turn in 2025, set for January 25, arrives when Chalamet is only a bigger star in Hollywood. And with that rising trajectory comes an equally growing net worth.

Timothée Chalamet's net worth stands at an estimated $25 million in 2025 (per CelebrityNetWorth). That puts him in the ballpark of other SNL season 50 hosts like Bill Burr and Martin Short, and trailing stars such as Ariana Grande, Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle.

Inside Timothée Chalamet's net worth

Timothée Chalamet may only be 29 years old, but he's been acting since he was child thanks to short film and commercial gigs.

The twice-delayed announcement of nominations for the 97th Academy Awards is finally coming Thursday. While many communities remain evacuated or in recovery mode due to the deadly Los Angeles area wildfires — and nerves remain shot everywhere — the industry is allowing itself a moment to once again contemplate the Oscars.

For Best Actor there is a strong field of contenders, with one clear standout (at the moment). But four of the five slots look to be safely locked up. That said, there are always challengers on the bubble and long shots well worth considering. So let's consider them all.

Locks

Adrien Brody (The Brutalist) — 39/20 odds

Brody has a lock on a nomination and — after winning the Golden Globe for his role as László Tóth, a fictional Hungarian Jewish architect subjected to the horrors of the Buchenwald death camp in World War II — has leapfrogged to the top of nearly everyone's list.

Timothée Chalamet will most likely be nominated for Best Actor for A Complete Unknown, but he should actually be getting more recognition for his other 2024 role. Chalamet is one of the most prominent rising stars in Hollywood, and has starred in movies such as Call Me by Your Name, Beautiful Boy, and Bones and All. 2024 was one of the best years of Chalamet's career, as he starred in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown. Reviews for A Complete Unknown, which chronicles a few years early on in Dylan's career, have been exceptional.

For A Complete Unknown, Chalamet transformed into Dylan, and has received a ton of praise for his role in the film. A Complete Unknown is one of Timothée Chalamet's best movies, but Bob Dylan was actually not his best role of 2024. Early in 2024, Chalamet starred in Dune: Part Two, the long-awaited follow-up to Denis Villeneuve's first Dune film.

The list of Golden Globes winners is out, and Timothée Chalamet has lost to Adrien Brody in the lead actor category. The competition was tough this year with some of the most impactful movies filled with power-packed performances for the awards. Two of the most powerful contenders on that list were Timothée Chalamet and Adrien Brody for their movies A Complete Unknown and The Brutalist, respectively.

While Chalamet played the role of a young Bob Dylan in the biographical film, Brody portrayed the story of an immigrant finding his footing in America after escaping the war. Although many had high hopes for Chalamet to seize his chance and bag the award, Brody’s win did not exactly come as a surprise.

However, this has surely made the competition for the Oscars tougher, according to many fans. Incidentally, if...

Timothée Chalamet has the chance to break a major Oscars record at the 2025 Academy Awards, but his main competitor is actually the current holder of the record. 2024's A Complete Unknown is one of Timothée Chalamet's best movies, and will likely earn him his second Academy Award nomination for Best Actor. Chalamet was previously nominated for Best Actor for his 2017 film Call Me by Your Name, which was his breakout role. Ever since Call Me by Your Name, Chalamet's movies have proven that he is one of the best actors currently working in Hollywood.

Chalamet has starred in movies like Beautiful Boy, Bones and All, Wonka, and both Dune films. In 2024, Chalamet boldly decided to portray one of the most iconic musicians of all time. The recently released A Complete Unknown is a biopic that follows singer-songwriter Bob Dylan in the early years of his career. Chalamet has received immense...

Timothée Chalamet made his acting debut in 2014 in Interstellar, the space epic from Christopher Nolan that was recently re-released in theaters to celebrate the film’s 10th anniversary. Chalamet has since starred in smaller independent films like Bones and All and Beautiful Boy, and he’s also headlined major box office blockbusters like Dune: Part Two and Wonka. His latest movie, A Complete Unknown, is now playing in theaters everywhere, and after only one week, it has earned $25 million at the domestic box office. This $25 million total is enough to lift Chalamet’s career domestic box office earnings to $1.1 billion, a milestone which it just passed thanks to a $2.7 million day on Tuesday, December 31. A Complete Unknown has not yet premiered in international theaters and is currently only playing in the U.S.

Timothée Chalamet hasn’t even turned 30, but that isn’t stopping the American Cinematheque from embarking on a week-long retrospective of the Oscar-nominated actor’s red-hot career.

“He’s an extraordinary talent,” says Imani Davis, film programmer at the American Cinematheque in Los Angeles. “I can’t think of many other times where we’ve highlighted the work of someone so young, but he’s already done a lot of amazing work and really established himself.”

Davis says that tickets for the three screenings that Chalamet will appear at in person sold out nine minutes after they went on sale, a record for the organization. “The demand has been incredible,” she reports.

And it’s not just Chalamet who will be popping up at post-screening Q&a’s. Andrew Garfield will moderate a conversation with Chalamet and Luca Guadagnino on Jan. 9 tied to a double feature of the actor and director’s two collaborations,...

Timothée Chalamet sets a new personal Rotten Tomatoes record with his Bob Dylan movie A Complete Unknown. Chalamet does his own singing as the legendary singer-songwriter, in a James Mangold-directed film about Dylan’s early days on the East Village folk scene, up to the day he changed everything by going electric at the Newport Folk Festival. Chalamet is generating Oscar buzz for his Dylan biopic, which hits theaters on December 25.

Audiences who’ve already caught Chalamet’s acclaimed A Complete Unknown performance are also buzzing about the star by taking to Rotten Tomatoes, elevating the biopic to a 95% Popcornmeter rating (formerly known as audience score) on the review aggregator. This score ties it with the star's previous solo Popcornmeter champion, Dune: Part Two. The film has crossed the 250+ verified reviews threshold stipulated by the site for a rating to be displayed.

What This Means For A Complete Unknown...

One of humanity's greatest songwriting gifts, Bob Dylan's biopic A Complete Unknown opens in theaters on Christmas Day. The prestigious awards darling stars Timothée Chalamet as Dylan, a supremely talented folk singer/songwriter who came of age in New York City in 1961 and left an indelible mark on the music scene. Often hailed as the greatest songwriter of all time, A Complete Unknown is loaded with more than one familiar face.

In addition to Chalamet transforming his face and body posture for the lead role, his supporting cast members also underwent dramatic makeup and costume transformations to bring their real-life musicians to life. As such, it's always amusing to see how well the casting and makeup department achieved their assignment of making their characters resemble their real-life counterparts.

With the awards season right around the corner and the nominations lists being released, fans are excited to see who will take home the honors for the work done in 2024. Meanwhile, Timothee Chalamet received his fourth Golden Globes nomination but is set to win the coveted trophy.

Even though his name has often been included in the nominees list, the Dune star has yet to secure a win at a major annual ceremony. What does he do when he doesn’t end up winning the award? What happens to the speech he prepares in case he does emerge victorious? Timothee has responded to these burning questions, and here’s what he revealed.

Does Timothee Chalamet Tear Up His Speech After Losing An Award?

During his appearance on The Morning Mashup, the 28-year-old was asked if he is prepared...

Following his latest nominated performance, Timothée Chalamet is opening up about the unfortunate reality of awards season.

The A Complete Unknown star, who recently secured his fourth Golden Globe nomination for playing Bob Dylan, shared his honest experience after losing the awards for his roles in Call Me By Your Name (2017), Beautiful Boy (2018) and Wonka (2023).

“I’ll just say this — there’s nothing more uniquely hilarious, and something you cannot share with anyone, when you get home and you tear up the little thing that you never had to use,” said Chalamet on SiriusXM. “And you think to yourself, ‘You narcissistic arrogant prick. On what planet did you think you were going to use this?'”

Chalamet’s radio appearance comes after he earned a Best Actor in a Motion Picture — Drama nomination for his performance as Dylan in co-writer/director James Mangold‘s A Complete Unknown.

Timothée Chalamet is 28 years old and just landed the fourth Golden Globe nomination of his career. He’s in contention for the best actor in a motion picture drama prize at the 2025 ceremony thanks to his acclaimed performance as Bob Dylan in the biographical music drama “A Complete Unknown.” Chalamet’s last three nominations did not end in victory; he recently told SiriusXM there’s nothing funnier than ripping up your acceptance speech after losing.

“This is my fourth Golden Globe nomination,” Chalamet said. “Look, I’ll just say this… There’s nothing more uniquely hilarious and something you cannot share with anyone when you get home and you tear up the little thing that you never had to use and you think to yourself, ‘You narcissistic arrogant prick. On what planet did you think you were gonna use this?'”

Timothée Chalamet is opening up about what really happens at award ceremonies when he’s had an acceptance speech prepared but didn’t win.

The actor recently appeared on SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up to promote his upcoming film A Complete Unknown, which has given Chalamet Oscar buzz for his portrayal of singer-songwriter Bob Dylan. When co-host Nicole Ryan asked Chalamet if he writes an acceptance speech ahead of time for award shows or wings it when he gets called up on stage, the actor had a comical take.

“What a great question ’cause like you said, this is my fourth Golden Globe nomination,” he said. “Look, I’ll just say this … there’s nothing more uniquely hilarious and something you cannot share with anyone when you get home and you tear up the little thing that you never had to use and you think to yourself, ‘You narcissistic arrogant prick.

While celebrating his fourth Golden Globe nomination, Timothée Chalamet admitted that writing acceptance speeches ahead of time made him feel like a “narcissistic prick.”

The actor, who is again nominated for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in the biopic “A Complete Unknown,” told SiriusXM host Nicole Ryan, “There’s nothing more uniquely hilarious and something you cannot share with anyone when you get home and you tear up the little thing that you never had to use and you think to yourself, ‘You narcissistic prick.’ On what planet did you think you were gonna use this?”

Chalamet previously earned Golden Globe nominations for his performances in “Wonka,” “Beautiful Boy” and “Call Me By Your Name,” none of which he won (he also received an Oscar nomination for the Luca Guadagnino movie).

Chalamet then asked Ryan and co-hosts Ryan Sampson and Stanley T if he could “say whatever I want” on the satellite radio station,...

Timothée Chalamet and Saoirse Ronan may both have two films each vying for awards contention this year in Chalamet’s “A Complete Unknown” and “Dune: Part Two” and Ronan’s “The Outrun” and “Blitz,” but the pair took the time to reunite in London to discuss two films they appeared in together at the earlier stages of their careers.

In a special event hosted by the British Film Institute and Vanity Fair at the BFI Southbank on Wednesday evening, Chalamet and Ronan reflected on making 2017’s “Lady Bird” and 2019’s “Little Women,” both from a pre-“Barbie” writer/director Greta Gerwig.

While the two hadn’t me prior to “Lady Bird,” Chalamet recalled being told about Ronan by Emery Cohen, who had worked with her on the 2016 hit “Brooklyn.”

“I kept hearing this name ‘Saoirse, Saoirse’ and didn’t put two and two together when I saw the name spelled out,...

With Dylan’s enigmatic stamp of approval and a star-studded cast, A Complete Unknown is poised to redefine the music biopic genre.

Bob Dylan has no qualms about Timothée Chalamet’s portrayal of him in James Mangold’s upcoming A Complete Unknown.

“There’s a movie about me opening soon called A Complete Unknown (what a title!),” Dylan wrote on social media on Wednesday. “Timothee Chalamet is starring in the lead role. Timmy’s a brilliant actor so I’m sure he’s going to be completely believable as me. Or a younger me. Or some other me.”

Mangold’s film is set in the summer of 1961, when a 19-year-old Dylan arrived in New York City from Minnesota with little else than his guitar. The movie is based on the 2015 book Dylan Goes Electric! Newport, Seeger, Dylan, and the Night That Split the Sixties by Elijah Wald, which explores the controversy surrounding Dylan’s switch to electrically amplified instrumentation.

Dylan wrote on Wednesday that the book is “a fantastic retelling of events...

Fans picked Deadpool & Wolverine star Ryan Reynolds as well as Adam Sandler as some of the most overrated stars in Hollywood. In a vox pop by a popular page, common folk in the UK were asked about who they think are the most overrated stars in Hollywood, and Reynolds, Sandler, and Timothée Chalamet seemed to dominate the list.

While some members of the list may deserve it, others such as Chalamet have proved why they are at the top. Even actors like Adam Sandler and Dwayne Johnson, who were featured in the list, seem to be taking on roles that are not of their usual style. The jury is still out, however, on these stars.

On Monday, the Palm Springs International Film Festival announced that the 28-year-old American actor will receive the Chairman’s Award at its annual gala on Jan. 3, 2025. This honor specifically recognizes Chalamet’s performance in James Mangold‘s “A Complete Unknown” from Searchlight Pictures, a biopic of music legend Bob Dylan.

This news comes one week after he was announced as the Arlington Artist of the Year Award honoree at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, and two weeks after he and Mangold were both named as the Visionary Tribute honorees at the Gotham Awards.

The Palm Springs International Film Awards will take place at the Palm Springs Convention Center, with the 11-day festival running between Jan. 2 and Jan. 13. The event will be presented by Silvercrest and sponsored by “Entertainment Tonight.”

How does it feel — to be feted for A Complete Unknown?

The Palm Springs Film Festival said today that Timothée Chalamet will receive its 2025 Chairman’s Award for his performance as Bob Dylan in James Mangold’s biopic about rock’s most celebrated songwriter.

“Timothée Chalamet embodies one of the most iconic figures in music history with his extraordinary performance as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown,” said Festival Chairman Nachhattar Singh Chandi. “Timothée showcases both his physical and vocal talents as he brings depth and nuance to this role that is certain to receive award recognition.”

A Complete Unknown begins amid the vibrant music scene in 1961 New York, where an enigmatic 19-year-old from Minnesota arrives with his guitar and revolutionary talent, destined to change the course of American music. Dylan forges intimate relationships with music icons of Greenwich Village on his meteoric rise, culminating in a groundbreaking and controversial...

While Timothée Chalamet has cemented his name in Hollywood, his path to get here wasn’t what he initially had in mind.

The Oscar-nominated actor recently shared in an interview for the cover of Rolling Stone U.K. that he was aiming for roles in action movies such as Maze Runner and Divergent early in his career; however, he was consistently shut down due to his body type.

“I would always get the same feedback, ‘Oh, you don’t have the right body,’” Chalamet recalled. “I had an agent call me once and say, ‘I’m tired of getting the same feedback. We’re gonna stop submitting you for these bigger projects, because you’re not putting on weight.’ I was trying to put on weight. I couldn’t! I basically couldn’t. My metabolism or whatever the fuck couldn’t do it.”

That led the Dune: Part Two star to pursue more indie projects,...

Timothée Chalamet has established himself as one of the most sought-after talents in Hollywood with a string of critically and commercially successful films. As a result, Chalamet is entering the leading man phase of his career, and his upcoming project, the much-awaited Bob Dylan biopic, is arguably the most important project for the young actor.

During an interview, Chalamet’s co-stars spoke about his approach to playing the iconic singer-songwriter. They revealed Chalamet was using a technique for the movie that has often affected some actors adversely. Chalamet’s technique is the same one Shia Labeouf used for Fury, which went a little too far. Here is what the actors had to say about Chalamet’s work on the upcoming movie.

Timothée Chalamet is a well-known actor in Hollywood and is in very high demand today, despite the fact that he appeared – very early in his career – in Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar.

Recently, though, Chalamet has been landing big movie roles after his successful performances in the Oscar-nominated films Lady Bird, Call Me by Your Name, and Little Women. His two most recent works, Wonka and the Dune trilogy, have both been huge bestsellers.

As Chalamet is waiting for the release of his Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown, he gave a very interesting interview to Rolling Stone magazine, in which he discussed his early career on film.

While he is today best-known as a dramatic actor who picks (more or less) complex and layered roles, Chalamet revealed that he wanted to take a completely different path early in his career and that the rejections he faced “forced” him, in a way,...

Rainn Wilson has played one of the most iconic roles in the history of television, and that is none other than, Dwight Schrute from The Office. The character is so memorable that many fans still struggle to separate Rainn, the actor, from Dwight, the role.

Strangely enough, despite the role’s popularity and his brilliant performance, Wilson never won an Emmy for it. But you know what? That’s not his biggest regret. Not even close. There’s something else that he himself has admitted will haunt him for the rest of his life.

What Is Rainn Wilson’s Biggest Regret?

Sitcoms have a way of crawling into an actor’s life. Spend enough time on set, and suddenly, the fake sets feels like home, and the props become oddly personal. The Office, of course, isn’t just any sitcom,...
