Timothée Chalamet becomes Bob Dylan in the new biographical film «Complete Stranger». As shown in the new trailer, the actor from the film «Dune» sang live and sounded remarkably similar to the folk singer. Hollywood Life has gathered everything you need to know about the upcoming biographical film about Bob Dylan below!
The biographical film from Searchlight Pictures is scheduled to be released in theaters on December 25, 2024, as shown on its official poster.
In addition to Timothée, who plays Bob in the film, a star-studded cast appeared in the picture. Elle Fanning plays the role of Bob’s former girlfriend, Sylvia Russo, and Monica Barbaro plays folk singer Joan Baez. Award-winning actor Edward Norton plays musician Pete Seeger, and Boyd Holbrook plays Johnny Cash.
In the trailer, Timothée can be heard singing one of Bob’s hits, «A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall».
According to «Complete Stranger» director James Mangold, the star of «Call Me By Your Name» really sings in this film. Speaking to Rolling Stone in July 2024, the director of «Walk the Line» confirmed that Timothée «was a partner in this» endeavor, referring to providing vocals for the film.
«You want everyone to put everything on the line every minute», - explained James to the publication. «But it’s not like if one of our actors hits a false note, I don’t have an alternative or the ability to replace that moment. If Timothée is brave enough to go out there and make himself vulnerable, throw himself into it, I have to be brave enough to stand behind the camera and shoot. And Timothée was a partner in this. He really wanted to».
The director also noted that the biographical film had been in development for several years.
«And the years of preparation we did on this film because of false starts with Covid and other things meant that Timothée really had a kind of incubation as a musician that lasted for years», - added James. «And Monica Barbaro too. She was hired when we were going to make the film before Indy. So many of these people were in place for an incredibly long time and used that time incredibly successfully in their own musical journey».
The director also confirmed that Bob was indeed involved in the making of «Complete Stranger». Recalling a meeting with the «Knockin' on Heaven’s Door» hitmaker, James told the folk artist that the film was «about a guy who suffocates in Minnesota, leaves behind all his friends and family, and reimagines himself in a completely new place, makes new friends, builds a new family, becomes phenomenally successful, starts suffocating again — and runs away».
James recalled that Bob replied, «I like that idea»
