Timothée Chalamet Gained 20 Pounds to Play Bob Dylan: ‘Believe It or Not, I Was Thinner Than the Guy’
Timothee Chalamet said he gained 20 pounds to play Bob Dylan in 'A Complete Unknown.' 'Believe it or not, I was thinner than the guy,' he said.
Timothée Chalamet learned to play guitar and sing like Bob Dylan for “ A Complete Unknown.” He also gained 20 pounds to look more like the folk music legend, he revealed an interview with NPR. Chalamet is nominated for best actor for his performance in the James Mangold film, which chronicles Dylan’s arrival in New York City at age 19 in 1961 to his transformative “going electric” moment at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival. Between “Wonka” and “Dune: Part Two,” Chalamet starred in two films that each grossed more than $200 million domestically within eight months, beating a box office record set more than 45 years ago by John Travolta, with “Saturday Night Fever” and “Grease.”
