As a longtime admirer of both Timothée Chalamet and Bob Dylan, I find myself utterly captivated by the dedication and immersion Chalamet demonstrated while portraying the iconic musician in A Complete Unknown. Edward Norton’s words paint a vivid picture of Chalamet’s unwavering commitment to his craft, secluding himself from the world during filming to truly embody Dylan’s enigmatic spirit.
According to Edward Norton, Timothée Chalamet preferred not to have his friends, guests, or representatives witness him while he was portraying Bob Dylan in the movie “A Complete Unknown”.
Timothée Chalamet takes on the role of Dylan in James Mangold’s upcoming film titled A Complete Unknown, set to hit U.S. theaters next month. This movie is an adaptation of Elijah Wald’s 2015 novel Dylan Goes Electric! The cast also includes Michael Douglas as Pete Seeger, Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo, Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez, Boyd Holbrook as Johnny Cash, Dan Fogler as Albert Grossman, Scoot McNairy as Woody Guthrie, and others.
What did Edward Norton say about Timothée Chalamet and A Complete Unknown?
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Norton explained that Chalamet chose to isolate himself during the filming of his upcoming musical biopic.
Norton stated emphatically, “He was unyielding.” There were no visitors, friends, representatives, or anyone else around while they were working on it. They were trying their best with something so deeply significant and sacred to many people. I completely agreed with him – we couldn’t have an audience for this. We needed to have the utmost faith in what we were doing. And he was correct to be that protective.
Barbaro mentioned that Chalamet tended to be quite isolated on set, much like how Bob sometimes was. Interestingly, this solitude seemed to enhance the dynamic between Bob and Joan.
The film “A Complete Unknown” is set to hit U.S. theaters on Christmas Day, 2024, distributed by Searchlight Pictures.
The summary for the film describes a story that unfolds amidst the impactful music scene of 1960s New York. The movie, titled ‘A Complete Unknown’, chronicles the rapid ascent of a 19-year-old Minnesota musician named Bob Dylan (played by Timothée Chalamet) from local venues to large concert halls and chart-topping hits. His songs and enigmatic persona create a global sensation, leading up to his pioneering electric rock and roll performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.
