For less than 10 years, Timothée Chalamet has been making notable appearances on the big screen and he does not intend to stop there. The actor reveals what valuable advice Leonardo DiCaprio gave him on the set of “Don’t Look Up: Cosmic Denial.”
Timothée Chalamet, star of today and tomorrow
At only 26 years old, Timothée Chalamet already has a filmography that commands respect. The actor is one of Hollywood’s most important new generation stars. In particular, it exploded in Call Me by Your Name by portraying a teenager who discovered feelings for a man. We then saw it with Greta Gerwig in lady birdat Scott Cooper for Hostileat Wes Anderson for The French Dispatch or at Denis Villeneuve for Dune.
If he continues on this path, he has everything to build an absolutely crazy career. We also don’t forget that he appeared a few months ago in Don’t Look Up: Cosmic Deniala squeaky comedy that allowed him to give the answer to Leonardo DiCaprio.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s advice
During the filming of the film directed by Adam McKay, Timothée Chalamet was able to receive valuable advice from his eldest and he has just revealed it to British Vogue :
No hard drugs and no superhero movies.
A council in two parts and it is obviously the second which challenges us the most. At a time when Marvel and DC continue to multiply projects, while trying to attract beautiful names, the opinion of Leonardo DiCaprio recalls that superhero cinema is not unanimous within the profession. We remember that Martin Scorsese had some harsh words against the genre and several big names in the industry consider these films as mere consumer products without interest.
However, it is necessary to temper the position of Leonardo DiCaprio a little because superhero cinema is capable of delivering powerful works. Consider, for example, the recent The Batman. We will see if Timothée Chalamet will follow this advice. For now, he has never flirted with the blockbuster, with the exception of Dune, which remains a big project thought up by a talented director. He will be back in the sequel expected on November 15, 2023 and we will also see him in the cannibal romance Bones and All scheduled for November 23.
