Timothée Chalamet's Best Actor nomination for 'Going Electric' could land him the title of the youngest ever Academy Award winner in that category.
Timothée Chalamet's Best Actor nomination for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in the biopic 'Going Electric' has sparked a wave of excitement, particularly as he's positioned to make history. If Chalamet secures the Oscar, he'll become the Academy's youngest ever Best Actor winner, surpassing Adrien Brody's record set in 2003 at the age of 29. Chalamet, who turned 29 on December 27, 2024, would take Brody's place should he win the coveted award.
Brody was 29 on April 14, 2002, roughly 11 months before the 2003 Oscar ceremony where he won. This nomination also marks Chalamet as the third-youngest nominee in the Best Actor category, trailing behind Mickey Rooney, who received a nomination at the age of 19 for the 1939 musical film 'Babes in Arms.' Chalamet is the only man to have two Best Actor nominations in his 20s before the iconic Marlon Brando in the 1950s. The 98th Academy Awards ceremony, which will be broadcast live from the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood on Sunday, March 2, at 7 p.m. ET on ABC and Hulu, promises to be a night of glamour and anticipation. 'Going Electric,' a musical biopic, holds the title of the most-nominated non-English language film in Oscar history, with an impressive 13 nominations overall.
