Timothee Chalamet's portrayal of Bob Dylan in 'A Complete Unknown' is earning rave reviews, particularly for his dedication to live performance. Chalamet not only sings all of Dylan's songs but also performs them live on camera, capturing the essence of the legendary musician.

Timotheé Chalamet is generating significant acclaim for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in ' A Complete Unknown .' The 29-year-old actor embodies the musical icon as a rising star in the early 1960s, adopting Dylan's iconic hairstyle and signature nasal speaking and singing style. Chalamet's dedication extends to performing over 40 songs for the film live.

In a featurette released ahead of the premiere, Chalamet emphasized the importance of singing and playing live, stating, 'It was important for me to sing and play live. Because if I can actually do it, why should there be an element of artifice here? And I’m proud that we took that leap.' The film showcases Chalamet's remarkable talent and commitment to embodying Dylan's essence.

Mangold recounted the moment, saying Chalamet convinced him to let him try it live, and he was 'phenomenal.' The director shared that Chalamet's live performance, particularly a sustained note on the guitar, gave him chills and highlighted the effectiveness of Chalamet's method acting
