With leading turns in Luca Guadagninos cannibal coming of age story Bones and All and Denis Villeneuves fantasy epic Dune Part Two Timothée Chalamet is wearing many different hats.
Next December he will add a more colorful top hat in Paul Kings movie musical Wonka an origin story about Roald Dahls sugary chocolatier. While details about the movie are limited paparazzi photos leaked from the set have ignited a social media frenzy as fans were quick to turn Chalamets Wonka into a meme. In a viral tweet actor and comedian Ben Schwartz wrote In this one Wonka fucks.
In an interview with British Vogue, Chalamet teased the upcoming movie and reacted to the internet jokes. You know whats really funny about that is its so misleading. The movie is so sincere its so joyous he said adding that he has seven musical numbers.
Chalamet also noted that shooting the movie helped him grow as an artist I hate to say it but the dream as an artist is to throw whatever the fuck you want at the wall you know? And I guess what I am realizing is that ones personal life ones adult life can be quite boring and the artists life can still be extraordinary.
Elsewhere in the interview Chalamet revealed that Leonardo DiCaprio gave him some memorable career advice No hard drugs and no superhero movies. DiCaprio and Chalamet shared the screen in Adam McKays 2021 satirical comedy Do not Look Up which premiered in limited theaters and on Netflix last December and was nominated for a best picture Oscar.
