Timothée Chalamet will host and carry out as a musical visitor on an upcoming episode of SNL. Will ‘Lil Timmy Tim return?
Only a few folks function each host and musical visitor on Saturday Evening Dwell. When it does occur, the host/musical friends are icons akin to Elton John, Taylor Swift, Ray Charles, Paul Simon, or Britney Spears. Within the historical past of SNL, solely 4 of the double-duty hosts have been non-professional musicians, with the final being Deion Sanders in 1995 (though Bon Jovi additionally carried out that evening). We will quickly add Timothée Chalamet to that record because the star of A Full Unknown will host and function the musical visitor on the January twenty fifth episode of SNL.
Given the handfuls of Bob Dylan tunes Chalamet sings in A Full Unknown, it’s cheap to imagine that he’ll belt out just a few of these, however the actor can also be an enormous fan of rap music, so something may occur. May we witness the return of ‘Lil Timmy Tim?
Our personal Chris Bumbray was an enormous fan of A Full Unknown, significantly the efficiency of the main man. “Chalamet is the real deal,” Bumbray wrote. “He makes for a perfect Dylan, with him channelling the man’s iconic appearance and voice without ever coming off like he’s doing a caricature.” Bumbray added that the movie is “thoroughly entertaining and really gives you an appreciation for Dylan’s craft and importance, with the film packed with impressively mounted performances of his most essential songs. A Complete Unknown should do what Walk the Line did: it will expose Dylan’s music to a younger audience, as the film plays well to Dylan aficionados, more casual fans (such as myself) and even those who’ve never heard of him. It’s one of the year’s most entertaining movies, with Mangold’s film so good that I hope he’s got a few Dylan sequels in him, as it truly left me wanting more.” You possibly can take a look at the remainder of his assessment proper right here.
Though Chalamet didn’t take dwelling the Golden Globe, he should still have a shot at an Oscar. If he received, he would turn into the youngest best-actor Oscar winner in historical past, beating Adrian Brody by just some days.
Right here’s the official synopsis: “Set in the influential New York music scene of the early 60s, A Complete Unknown follows 19-year-old Minnesota musician Bob Dylan’s (Timothée Chalamet) meteoric rise as a folk singer to concert halls and the top of the charts – his songs and mystique becoming a worldwide sensation – culminating in his groundbreaking electric rock and roll performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.” Along with Chalamet, A Full Unknown stars Edward Norton, Elle Fanning and Monica Barbaro. The movie additionally co-stars Boyd Holbrook, Dan Fogler, Norbert Leo Butz, and Scoot McNairy.
