Timothee Chalamet stars in Josh Safdie’s upcoming film Marty Supreme, a movie with similar energy to another one of Safdie’s movies.
During appearance on Theo Von’s This Past Weekend podcast, Chalamet said that Marty Supreme had a similar energy to Uncut Gems, which Safdie co-directed with his brother Benny.
“This crazy director, Josh Safdie, it has kind of that energy, that chaotic thing,” said Chalamet. “It wasn’t like a low energy shoot. This was like 16-hour days for three months […] Josh put me through the wringer man.”
“I saw him wanting me to do the stunts. And part of me is like, this feels like a test,” Chalamet said. “You know? And I wanted to show him. And then I now I feel like I’ve emerged from the other side with no broken bones or whatever.”
Along with Chalamet, Marty Supreme feature an incredible ensemble, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A’zion, magician Penn Jillette, Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary, Abel Ferrara, Sandra Bernhard, Spenser Granese, and music artist Tyler, the Creator.
The script was written by Safdie and Ronald Bronstein, who are also producing the movie with Eli Bush, Anthony Katagas, Chalamet, and A24.
Chalamet recently reprised his role as Paul Atreidies in Denis Villeneueve’s Dune: Part Two, which was released earlier this year. He is now seen playing Bob Dylan in James Mangold’s biopic drama A Complete Unknown, released on December 25, 2024.
A release date for Marty Supreme has not yet been announced by A24.
