Timothee Chalamet has been in the spotlight for quite some time now. From his supporting role in Interstellar to his breakthrough performance in Call Me By Your Name, he's come a long way from being a child actor on television shows like Homeland and Men Women & Children. His rise to fame has been meteoric, and he's one of Hollywood's most promising young actors today. So, if you’re a Chalamet fan, you’ll love this list - here are some of the best Timothee Chalamet movies to get stuck into;
The King (2019)
The King is a film that was released in 2019. It is directed by David Michôd and stars Timothée Chalamet as Henry V in the film. The King is based on William Shakespeare's play of the same name but has been adapted for modern audiences.
The story follows Henry V and his army as they fight against France during World War I. While in France, Henry meets Joan of Arc who helps him defeat the French army and allow England to win their first major victory over France since 1559. This movie is the perfect mix of excellent cinematography and an emotional tale in history.
Beautiful Boy (2018)
If you're looking for a film that's both heartbreaking and hopeful at the same time, then look no further than Beautiful Boy. Based on David Sheff's memoir of his son Nic's addiction to methamphetamines and cocaine, the movie follows Sheff (Steve Carell) and his wife Vicki (Amy Ryan) as they go through their son Nic's addiction and rehab.
The film is based on a true story about two parents trying to save their only child from addiction—and failing miserably at first. But there are some moments when hope begins to shine through, like when Nic leaves treatment with an extended family who has thrown him a party in celebration of his progress in recovery. You may need some tissues for this one!
Call Me By Your Name (2017)
Call Me By Your Name is a film directed by Luca Guadagnino and stars Timothée Chalamet as Elio Perlman and Armie Hammer as Oliver, who both pull off dazzling performances. The movie follows Elio's summer romance with Oliver and his impact on their lives. The movie was released in 2017 and has been nominated for numerous awards since then including Best Picture at both the Academy Awards (Oscar) and Golden Globes.
Lady Bird (2017)
The movie stars Saoirse Ronan, who plays Lady Bird. The movie shows the reality of complex relationships and the joys (and heartbreaks) of being a teenager. Timothee Chalamet plays the role of a student who is about to graduate from high school. He falls for his best friend, but she's going to college across the country—and he ends up leaving town himself.
Director Greta Gerwig has been nominated for an Oscar twice before this year. Her first nomination was in 2013 for her work on "Frances Ha" (which also starred Rachel Adams) and her second was in 2017 for co-writing "Lady Bird."
Hot Summer Nights (2017)
Hot Summer Nights is a 2017 crime drama film directed by Elijah Bynum. The film stars Timothee Chalamet as Daniel, an introverted teenage boy who gets caught up in the drug scene while staying with his aunt over the summer. The movie takes place in Cape Cod, Massachusetts in 1988. It's not exactly a usual setting for a film but it works well for this one!
Timothee Chalamet was incredible as Daniel; he gave such an authentic performance and you could really feel what he was going through, both emotionally and physically when doing drugs. He had some really intense scenes too so props to him for handling them so well!
The cast is filled with talented actors who give great performances that help make this movie so enjoyable to watch from start to finish.
