Timothée Chalamet: The Boy Who Would Be Dylan




Timothée Chalamet has been on a roll lately. After his breakout role in Call Me By Your Name, he's starred in hit films like Lady Bird, Beautiful Boy, and The King. He's also been nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe, and has won a BAFTA. But what you may not know is that Chalamet is also a big fan of Bob Dylan.

In fact, Chalamet has said that Dylan is one of his biggest influences. He's even covered Dylan's song "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" in concert. So it's no surprise that when Chalamet was cast to play Dylan in the upcoming biopic Going Electric, he was thrilled.

"I'm so excited to play Bob Dylan," Chalamet said in a recent interview. "He's one of the most important and influential musicians of all time. I've always been a huge fan of his music, so this is a dream come true."

Chalamet will be playing Dylan during the period of his career when he went electric, which was a controversial move at the time. But Dylan's electric period produced some of his most iconic songs, including "Like a Rolling Stone" and "Blowin' in the Wind."

"I think it's going to be a really challenging role, but I'm up for it," Chalamet said. "I'm going to do my best to capture Dylan's essence and bring his story to life."
