First trailer for Bob Dylan biopic shows Timothée Chalamet as the star


A Complete Unknown, from Walk the Line director James Mangold, will show the musician’s rise to worldwide fame in early 60s New York City

The film will include the actors singing, with Top Gun: Maverick star Monica Barbaro playing Joan Baez, Edward Norton as Pete Seeger and Boyd Holbrook as Johnny Cash. His vocal coach, Eric Vetro, who also worked with him on last year’s hit musical Wonka, has called what he brings to the table to be the “essence” of Dylan. Dylan was previously brought to life on screen by actors including Cate Blanchett and Heath Ledger in Todd Haynes’s unconventional 2007 drama I’m Not There.
