Timothée Chalamet is the most influential young actor in the film industry. With millions of followers and an extraordinary career, he has already been nominated for the Best Actor Oscar three times by the age of 30, a feat previously only achieved by Brando. To these, he adds his role as producer of Marty Supreme. He has embodied Bob Dylan, enchanted stars in Dune, delivered an incomparable Willy Wonka, and every director is desperate to work with him. He is chameleonic and, like the best, can be everything and its opposite: strong and vulnerable, leader and submissive, luminous and dark.
