Thanks to Call Me By You Name and Ladybird, Timothee Chalamet certainly became a name to be conjured with, not just because he’s ridiculously good-looking, but also because he’s insanely talented, especially for such a young man. He’s already getting more great-notices and awards buzz for Beautiful Boy, which sees him starring opposite Steve Carell as a teen dealing with a drug problem.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘Based on the best-selling pair of memoirs from father and son David and Nic Sheff, BEAUTIFUL BOY chronicles the true and inspiring story of survival, relapse, and recovery in a family coping with addiction over many years.’ Maura Tierney and Amy Run also star, with Felix Van Groeningen directing.
The film is due in UK cinemas January 2019. Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]
Timothee Chalamet really has come out of nowhere in the last year, scoring an Oscar nomination for Call Me By Your Name, whilst also appearing in the much praised Lady Bird and alongside Christian Bale in Hostiles. Now he’s taking the lead in a romantic thriller, although some will be sad the romance isn’t with Armie Hammer this time.
