Cannes 2021: all crazy by Timothée Chalamet

Stylish, smiling and wearing sunglasses. That is how Timothée Chalamet appears on the Montée des Marches of the Cannes Film Festival 2021 on the occasion of the presentation of The French Dispatch, the new film by Wes Anderson which will arrive in Italian cinemas on November 22nd. Two years after his last appearance at a European festival, Chalamet returns to ignite the red carpet together with illustrious colleagues such as Bill Murray, Benicio Del Toro and Tilda Swinton, with which he poses hand in hand in favor of photographers from start to finish.

While waiting to find out if Anderson’s film – which garnered more than 9 minutes of applause – will win the Palme d’Or or not, it’s clear that this is Chalamet’s heyday in terms of both gigs and appearances public. We will see it in September, two years after the presentation of He re at David Michod, alla Venice Film Festival per Dune, the highly anticipated new film by Denis Villeneuve who will see him in the role of Paul Atreides, while he is currently working on Bones and All, the first American film by Luca Guadagnino, the director who, thanks to Call me by your name, launched his career by earning him an Oscar nomination at the age of 23.

As for future projects, we should also see Chalamet in the role of Willy Wonka in the new film directed by Paul King, collecting the legacy of Gene Wilder and ex-father-in-law Johnny Depp, and in that of Bob Dylan in a biopic entitled Going Electric which, however, due to Covid, has been postponed to a later date. Directed by James Mangold, it seems that filming has also stalled due to budget problems. Meanwhile, Dylan or not, it is clear that we are in full swing was Timothée Chalamet, and it is time to freak it out while we can.
