The actor women die for: Who is Timothée Chalamet?

After being nominated for the 90th Academy Awards in the Best Actor category, he appeared in front of the audience with Woody Allen's Rainy Day in New York and Netflix's The King. Who is Timothée Chalamet, who brings to life ambitious characters with master actors and already has a significant fan base?

A quick note: The name Timothée is pronounced as Teemo-TAY in French, but he says he prefers it to be pronounced as it's spelled.

His full name is Timothée Han Chalamet and he was born on December 27, 1995, in Manhattan, New York, and grew up in Hell's Kitchen neighborhood. His parents are Nicole Flender and Marc Chalamet. His mother is a third-generation New Yorker, and his father is French. Chalamet's older sister Pauline Chalamet (1992) is also an actress and lives in France. Chalamet's uncle is producer Rodman Flender, aunt is producer and writer Amy Lippman, the maternal grandmother is Broadway dancer Enid Flender, and grandfather is screenwriter Harold Flender.

The American-French actor started his career at an early age.

After taking part in short films, his first long-term project was the 'Homeland' series.

He was nominated for 'Best Actor' at the Academy Awards for his performance in 'Call Me By Your Name', making him the youngest actor in the category.

However, he was again nominated for 'Best Supporting Actor' at the BAFTA.

As for his artistic talent, we can say he inherited a great legacy from his mother's genes.

His mother, Nicole Flender, is a former Broadway dancer, his older sister is an actress in France, his uncle is a producer, his aunt is both a producer and writer, his grandmother is a former Broadway dancer, and his grandfather is a screenwriter.

Although he achieved success with his desire to become a football player at a young age, his acceptance to Fiorello H. LaGuardia Music Arts and Performing Arts High School during high school was a big step in his career change.

Afterward, no one could stand in the way of him and he climbed the career ladder with firm steps.

We saw him on the screen for the first time in the TV series 'Law & Order', where he was a guest at the age of 13!

In 2008, he played a murder victim in a TV series he was a guest of.

One of his first roles before achieving groundbreaking success in cinema was Christopher Nolan's 'Interstellar'!

Timothée, who portrayed the character of 'Tom', played the youth of Casey Affleck's character.

During the filming of 'Call Me by Your Name', Armie Hammer scratched Timothée's chin with his beard.

The rapprochement scenes in the movie were difficult for the famous actress.

As a result of Hammer's beard and re-shot scenes, Timothée's chin was chafed.

While the young actor was a student at LaGuardia High School in 2013, he had a relationship with the world-famous singer Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon.

The famous actor, who has successfully completed every role, auditioned for the role of Peter Parker in the movie 'Spiderman: Homecoming in 2017!

However, as you know, Tom Holland got the role.

Joaquin Phoenix is the favorite actor of Chalamet, who is the envy of everyone.

In an interview with V Man magazine, he mentioned that 5-6 actors inspire him. One of them is Joaquin Phoenix, whom he watched and admired in the movie Gladiator!

Even though he has made a name for himself with his acting, his clothing style is also talked about a lot! He left everyone in awe with his team, which he last appeared in at the 79th Venice International Film Festival.

Making his debut as Elio in the 2017 movie Call Me By Your Name, Timothee gained a rapidly rising reputation after this movie. In the same year, he played the character of Kyle Scheible in Lady Bird. He appeared before the audience with his successful performances in The King and Little Women.

She also acted with Selena Gomez in A Rainy Day in New York. But allegations of harassment against Woody Allen have worn them out.

Chalamet donated the money from this movie to RAINN, Time's Up, and the LGBT Center in New York. Likewise, Selena Gomez, Rebecca Hall, and Griffin Newman donated their proceeds to organizations that advocate for victims of sexual abuse and harassment.

Among the highly anticipated films of 2020 was Dune, and of course, Timothee was playing in Dune. The cast of Dune, which also includes Jason Momoa and Javier Bardem, was pretty good!
