Timothée Chalamet impresses as Bob Dylan in new film A Complete Unknown

Timothée Chalamet stars as Bob Dylan in the new film "A Complete Unknown," directed by James Mangold. Critics praise his performance, noting its authenticity and emotional depth. Castmate Monica Barbaro was surprised by how closely Chalamet's singing resembled Dylan's. Barbaro, who plays Joan Baez, recalled being confused during recording sessions, unable to tell if it was Chalamet or Dylan's voice. The film is part of the popular musical biopic trend, and early buzz suggests Chalamet may be a frontrunner for Best Actor at the 2025 Academy Awards. Despite Barbaro's lack of a Golden Globe nomination, she is receiving recognition for her role. The chemistry between Chalamet and Barbaro is highlighted as essential to the film's success. "A Complete Unknown" is currently in theaters.
