Timothee Chalamet channels Bob Dylan in first poster for the hotly anticipated biopic A Complete Unknown
As a seasoned music enthusiast with a particular fondness for the ’60s folk and rock scene, I am thrilled to hear about Timothée Chalamet’s upcoming role as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. Having grown up listening to Dylan’s iconic tunes, the idea of witnessing this talented young actor bring the musician to life on the big screen is nothing short of exhilarating.
Timothée Chalamet shared the first official poster for his new movie A Complete Unknown
On a Friday, the 28-year-old Golden Globe awardee, known for his alleged ‘frat boy’ demeanor off-screen, posted on Instagram, ‘INCOMING’, accompanying it with a brooding photo.
He channeled the folk and rock icon while wearing black sunglasses, a striped button up shirt and a dark blazer.
And his hair was worn in wild, fluffy curls.
A Complete Unknown is slated to hit theatres on Christmas Day.
In this upcoming film, Timothee Chalamet (the actor from Dune) takes on the role of Bob Dylan, with the story focusing on Dylan’s contentious decision to perform electric music at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965, a shift that stirred significant controversy.
It has been confirmed that Timothée Chalamet, who is set to work alongside Edward Norton, Elle Fanning, Boyd Holbrook, and Monica Barbaro in an upcoming film, will be singing in the movie himself. Previously, he had provided his voice for the 2023 musical movie “Wonka.”
Film director James Mangold disclosed that he’s collaborated with Dylan on the project, and it was Dylan himself who contributed some of his unique ideas to the script.
On the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the filmmaker shared that he had delightful, private conversations with him for several days.
As a die-hard admirer, there’s nothing more precious in my collection than the script that bears his personal annotations – a treasure trove I hold dear. Movies are his passion, and from the moment I shared a seat with Bob, it was evident: one of the first things he expressed to me was his fondness for “Cop Land”.
Although the image portrays Dylan’s early life stages, it’s important to note that The Logan director underscored that Complete Unknown isn’t solely a biographical account focusing on the musician.
He explained: ‘By the way, it’s not really a Bob Dylan biopic.
The reason Bob has been so enthusiastic about our project is likely because he believes, like me, that the most compelling true-life movies aren’t chronological from cradle to grave, but rather focus on a particular significant moment.
In essence, what he said was that it’s reminiscent of Altman’s style, but it’s more like a collective story set during the early 60s in New York City. The narrative revolves around a 17-year-old boy with only $16 to his name, who embarks on a hitchhiking journey to meet Woody Guthrie, who is gravely ill with a neurological disease in a hospital there.
Timothée Chalamet recently shared the poster for his upcoming movie “A Complete Unknown,” following the release of its first trailer. This offers fans a glimpse of the New York native in action.
And he has been seen channeling the singer on set on various occasions.
A confidant of the actor revealed that a significant amount is riding on his performance: “He’s under immense stress to nail it perfectly, as Bob Dylan enthusiasts can be fiercely critical and may harshly criticize Timothee if he makes a mistake.”
The title — A Complete Unknown — is recognizable from Dylan’s rock anthem which changed his career, Like a Rolling Stone.
