As a fan of both Bob Dylan and Timothée Chalamet, I must say this news has me absolutely “blowing in the wind” with excitement! Timmy’s talent is no secret, and to have the legendary Bob Dylan himself praise him as a brilliant actor is truly a dream come true.
Timothée Chalamet expresses his gratitude for Bob Dylan’s comments regarding the forthcoming biopic, titled “A Complete Unknown.
The biographical movie will feature Chalamet playing the younger incarnation of the renowned singer-songwriter. Following the acclaimed singer’s compliments for Chalamet, who, as Dylan himself stated, is a “exceptionally talented actor,” Chalamet publicly thanked the singer via social media.
What did Timothée Chalamet say about Bob Dylan’s compliment?
On the platform previously known as Twitter, the actor from Call Me by Your Name and Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory re-shared Dylan’s post with the words, “I’m speechless. I am incredibly grateful. Thank you Bob.” He also posted Dylan’s content on his Instagram story, describing it as a truly fulfilling moment.
Floored.

Yesterday, the renowned musician Dylan (famous for songs such as “Visions of Johanna,” “Like a Rolling Stone,” “Desolation Row,” “Positively Fourth Street,” “It Ain’t Me Babe,” and many more) made his first public statement regarding the upcoming biopic, scheduled to premiere in theaters on December 25th.
A movie titled ‘A Complete Unknown’ is set to release soon, featuring Timothee Chalamet in the leading role. Since Timmy is an exceptional actor, I am confident he will convincingly portray me or a younger version of myself in this film.” – Dylan
The singer then reminded everyone to read Elijah Wald’s 2015 book that the movie is based on.
The movie is based on Elijah Wald’s book ‘Dylan Goes Electric,’ which was published in 2015. It provides an engaging account of the events that culminated in the incident at Newport during the early ’60s. After watching the film, I recommend reading the book,” said Dylan.
An upcoming movie titled “A Complete Unknown” is set to premiere, with Timothee Chalamet playing the main character. Given Timmy’s talent, I have no doubt he will convincingly portray me, or perhaps a younger version of myself, or another version of me altogether. The storyline is based on Elijah.
