Bob Dylan Gives Timothée Chalamet His Seal of Approval in ‘A Complete Unknown’: ‘He’s a Brilliant Actor’


Bob Dylan has praised Timothée Chalamet's work in the upcoming biopic 'A Complete Unknown.' "Timmy’s a brilliant actor," he wrote on X.

Over the past few weeks, Bob Dylan has Tweeted about everything from a Nick Cave concert in Paris to Lon Chaney’s 1927 silent film The Unknown and a supposed interaction with a Buffalo Sabres player in the elevator of a hotel in Prague. In Brian Hiatt’s recent Rolling Stone cover story on Chalamet, he revealed that Dylan met several times with A Complete Unknown director James Mangold, and went through every line of the screenplay. It was eventually broadened to begin with Dylan’s arrival in New York City during the winter of 1961 and stretch all the way through the summer of 1965 when he first played with an electric band at the Newport Folk Festival.
