Timothée Chalamet to play ping pong wizard, there has to be a twist

The Dune: Part Two actor will star in Marty Supreme, a new film from A24 and Josh Safdie

As easy as it was to use the The Who pun in this article’s headline, Timothée Chalamet’s newest project really isn’t that surprising at all. Following his Dune: Part Two co-star Zendaya’s lead, the Call Me By Your Name actor has set his sights on the high stakes world of racket sports—or paddle sports, to be more exact. Chalamet is set to star in Marty Supreme , an upcoming film about ping pong from A24 and director Josh Safdie .

While Chalamet has clearly been bitten by the biopic bug with his upcoming Bob Dylan film, A Complete Unknown, it’s not clear as of this writing whether Marty Supreme will be a straight Reisman biography or something else entirely. It is Safdie behind the camera, after all, so odds are probably on the latter.
