Timothée Chalamet is Apple TV’s new spokesmouse

Oh, please.

Why is the world's biggest movie star (according to his fangirls) having to resort to endorsement deals?

What are the chances he posts on social media more about Apple than he ever did about Bones and All?

Chalamet on endorsement deals in his Vogue interview

[quote]“When [success] came my way, I felt very particular that I didn’t want people and I really didn’t want to see myself cashing in,”

Of course, that was all of...five months ago...

...and a year after he'd signed an endorsement deal with Cartier

I'm not a fan of his looks, but he actually looks good, tthere.

Apple TV+ actually

Somebody started to feel jealous of all the attention Butler got and decided to do a pointless video exercise.

A legend in his own narcissistic mind.

The idiots over at Apple picked for their spokesman some talent free twat whose last movie flopped like a pancake.

Hmm, wonder where they got the idea that Chalamet is a huge egotist from...

He’ll have to be sedated if Butler wins the Oscar.

I love him and all things Apple!

R12: And at this point I’m actually kind of hoping it happens just to see Timo’s reaction and what he’ll do afterwards.

So he's going to be the face of Ted Lasso and Slow Horses is he? Right, ok.

Love you, Timmy. Hope you do a series on apple+. Fuck these ossified Datalounge bitchcunts.

r14 Even better when he then has to do Dunc PR with him!

fag

DL never fails to go in on Timmy lol. I actually think he looks cute here.

[quote] Even better when he then has to do Dunc PR with him!

Oh, yes. I forgot to tell you: the spice exists on only one planet in the entire universe. A desolate, dry planet with vast deserts. Hidden away within the rocks of these deserts are a people known as the Fremen, who have long held a prophecy that a man would come, a messiah who would lead them to true freedom. The planet is Arrakis, also known as Dunc.

[quote] whose last movie flopped like a pancake.

I think Tim-o-tay is beautiful l, but he has an ass like a pancake.

Wonka can't crash and burn fast enough.

The rat wants to remind you all that HE is the last movie star despite no existing evidence on record.

He's a desperate man obviously.

What does anybody like about this guy? He’s a jackass.

I just cancelled my Apple TV subscription. There was nothing on there anyway and now this.

This is some shit, up with which we will not put.

R2: You know they’re getting worried when they have to do videos like this.

After his last two movies, I’m guessing he figures the more exposure/distractions the better.

R28: Which movies?

The ones that bombed R29. I know that doesn't help much but it's a start.

Chalamet is box office poison.

I don’t get all the hate for him on here - he’s just the latest successful pretty-boy actor in a line that goes all the way back to fucking Valentino.

He’s neither curing cancer or coming for your gas ranges and caftans. Did you all bitch this much about Pitt & Depp 30 years ago?

R30: I know about Bones & All but what was the other one?

Here's a link for you R32:

[quote]He’s neither curing cancer

Could you tell him and his publicist that, please?

And Pitt and Depp actually had some success to their name when 'the next big thing' type hype started with them.

Shpokeshmoushe.

The mouse is at Paris Fashion Week.

I’m assuming this video was the agent’s idea. The one that said he hasn’t auditioned for anything in seven years.

R35: The issue is he's not leading man material in any way, shape, or form. The idiots running Hollywood think he's Gen Z's or the Millenials' answer to DiCaprio because Gen Z needs a leading man but he will never have a huge career like DiCaprio. Once he can no longer play a kid, he'll be done.

r39 Yeah, there's a thread of r/movies about this ad, and this comment sums it up

[quote]If a movie requires a foppy-haired waif, Chalamet is the guy. In any other role — cannibal, warrior, regular guy — he is entirely unconvincing.

Hahahaha spokemouse, good one, OP!

Timmy’s so hot. I will buy more Apple products now. I want to have 10 babies from him!!

I don't if it's him or the fangirls who keep insisting the Bob Dylan film will see the light of day but they need to let that one go. That film is pretty much dead for all intents and purposes.

Sunglasses indoors. Proof, as if it were needed, that he's a douchebag

R44: This douchebag thinks he has longevity and that he gets roles because he's fabulous.

Didn’t he also do a car commercial? It seems like there’s no there there. He is pretending to he’s big star but Bones and All flopped hard.

Nepo baby / industry plant.

r46 Oh yeah that Edward Scissorhands thing. It's hilarious how his fangirls try and pretend he's this unique intellectual artiste, and he's actually just the most basic of fame whores. Complete with a house in LA

Kate Upton's former house, of all places. Down the street from Jennifer Lawrence and her bestie, Adele.

Every minute of a celebrity's life is one PR orchestrated move. Of course he showed up at Paris Fashion Week the day after that laughably bad Apple TV+ promo of him dropped. There are no coincidences in Hollywood.

[quote] Kate Upton's former house, of all places

in Verland.

Timothee really isn’t as popular as we are led to believe. I’m 25 and asked my friend who’s the same age as me if he knows who Timothee is and he said no. He knows Tom Holland tho and has even heard of Austin Butler because he used to date Vanessa Hudgens but when I brought up Timothee my friend was clueless.

It got him the attention he wanted.

R53: He was probably starving for it. Bones & All kind of just came and went and he got zero nominations while Taylor and Mark Rylance both got at least one nomination. Obviously, however it was Butler winning a Globe on a televised award show that pushed him over the edge.

R44: Douchebag probably wears sunglasses at night.

Maybe he’ll end up doing getting a role on The Morning Show like Jon Hamm. Sounds like they like box office poison actors.

I think that his body is so below average it touches a nerve with a lot of posters here. How dare he become or think of himself as a success when he looks like that….I’m worthless and so is he.

Make no mistake they are panicking over at Team Chalamet Headquarters right now. The movie flopped hard and he didn't even get in at the Indie Spirit awards where he had won before. They can say he was borderline supporting all they want but what other high profile male actor was above him in that movie? His PR's narrative has been spoiled now that we know what happens when he doesn't have a franchise or genuine stars to help him out. Also, the rise of Austin Butler isn't making the situation any better.

The fact he demanded a producer credit makes me think he actually thought Bones had a chance at best picture too

This guy is everywhere but the top of the box office.

A producing credit doesn't mean shit. All he did probably was raise some money and then go on vacation.

He must be through the roof right now. Austin Butler, Paul Mescal, and Barry Keoghan all nominated and not a single thing for his flop film. He'll have to be put on suicide watch if Butler wins.

Not even a lone screenplay nomination for his flop film and he was a "producer" on it.

This douchebag wears sunglasses at night.

R64 Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades!

[quote]They want they're fashion back

Oh, dear.

Of course he had to get the spotlight back after Mescal and Butler’s nominations.

Ooooh. Is he going to make an appearance on the Aniston/Witherspoon Morning Shitshow?

R68: Why do you say that?

R66 You're right but I was hoping no one would notice 🤣

What’s the deal with the sunglasses on 24/7? I guess he really thinks he’s that hot and at the top of the box office.

Words cannot describe the depth of my hate for this POS.

So we can expect commercials of Timmy for the upcoming Apple+ limited series "Masters of the Air," then?

He is so ugly.

He's with Deneuve. Many of us gays here would consider that enviable.

Maybe he’s wearing the glasses because he’s been crying

Oooh that almost makes me hard thinking about it

You're scary R76. Are you on any kind of watch list?

Or to hide the dilated pupils

It's obviously just a fashion statement and nothing to spazz out over. I think you guys are too harsh on this kid. He's still young and finding himself. Leave him alone.

How old are you that 27 can be considered "still young"?

Lol, Chalamet cannot compare to Mescal’s easy masculinity, talent, charisma, or sex appeal. And the entire industry agrees and just showed it to him by nominating Mescal for BA. Mescal is heading up the next Gladiator. Timmy would never in a million years be even considered for Gladiator. Mescal could easily replace Timmy in Dune, however. It’s not looking good for nepo baby Timtim.

R80 I'm turning 32 this year, but I believe your 20s to be the decade of exploring yourself and finding out what works for you. You dont necessarily need to have life all figured out and most 20 somethings don't. 30 and up you should start getting more serious about life.

I don’t know what the reason is behind the sunglasses but it’s beyond annoying. Thank God it’s the beginning of the end for this nepo baby and box office poison.

I'd love to see an alternative history where Call Me By Your Name was a straight film, with the Hammer character played by a woman, and see just how much praise and adoration Chalamet would've gotten then.

R84 Do you think that Timmy could not play pussyhound convincingly?

Looks like he has a new bodyguard. The tall white guy that's been with him I think since the filming of Wonka. I guess he couldn't take all the online hate directed at him.

The sunglasses, the bodyguard- it’s all just a status symbol. He wants people to think he’s an even bigger, successful movie star than he actually is. He won’t need the bodyguard for much longer because he’s a movie away from Hollywood realizing he can’t carry a film to profit.

R84, Wasn't that plot done?

[quote] Timmy would never in a million years be even considered for Gladiator.

Glaaaaaaaaaaaadiator!

Is that he worried about Butler and Mescal? Here he wants you to believe that the Bob Dylan film is still happening.

^^ Is he that...

This two days after the Madonna biopic was cancelled.

LOL pathetic, reduced to doing ads and pap walks

I (r73) was right!

My “friend” Austin Butler.

R93: He and his PR act like the Bob Dylan film is still happening. He did the guitar photo op after Cabo and again in 2021.

Oh look who's suddenly active again on social media. Trying to win some attention back

OMG he really is having a meltdown!

Beautiful to watch!

R97: The whore is high on drugs.

Crazy question, but is anyone watching the Eagles game?

Because they just showed a strange TC/Apple+ commercial. He is restlessly reclining, noting other actors with shows on Apple+, punctuating each with "I can do [comedy; weird; whatever]."

The ending is his looking into the camera, imploring, "Apple, call me."

Now, I get the self-referential "call me," but does Timothee get that his script is known as "kidding on the square"?

After making millions and having everybody kiss his ass, I guess anybody would turn into a desperate and narcissistic attention whore.

From the cover of Time to ...... commercials. Bitch is the new Jon Hamm.

I’m kinda surprised at his attention seeking lately. He used to be more elusive.

Elsewhere. Elusive.

OMG so embarrassing 🙈

I love how this campaign points out the flaws to Apple’s entertainment strategy which is to just order projects from celebrities

The biggest hits of the past few months, Wednesday and The Last of Us, don’t star very famous people.

R54 I actually liked Timothee in Bones and All.

It’s the first time I got his appeal as an actor.

Did he release a new commercial where he talks while his mouth is full of food? Stupid girl.

R94 What is that denim vest? Is he hoping someone will remake The Outsiders, staring him? I don't know which is more mortifying: that vest or the ad.

test

SNL really did a good one on Apple last night

It's still happening. Third one is out. I think the tone is supposed to be ironic and self-deprecating, but instead it is Le Cringe. The ad writer should find another line of work. Between this and Bones and All, I suspect Chalamet is lacking in good judgment and good guidance by those who should know better.

Apple still isn’t calling him.

Everyone is saying it will culminate in an announcement of an apple project with chalamet. I think it would be really funny if there is never a payoff. They just keep the ads going.

I thought the 1st one was funny and self deprecating. This 3rd one doesn't quite hit that vibe. The joke is wearing thin.

I told Timmy that Gladiator 2 will stream on Apple. He said he'll promote it for us.

I think the ads are the bomb!

I guess the ads will keep on coming until the Oscars after which Mescal and Butler won’t be in the news nearly as much.

Hahaha!

I’m perversely rooting for Butler to win just to watch this mouse implode.

Reduced to sponsored IG posts complete with the #ad hashtag

Is he actually getting uglier? Those ads are very unflattering.

The apple ads are all over YouTube. Ugh the poor thing...

R122: He gets uglier with each ad.

It tickles me how you all are so obsessed with him. You say you hate him, but you don't. You call him ugly, but you don't mean it.

These Apple TV+ commercials are all kinds of wrong, for TC.

First of all, they are too serious to make it seem like he's in on the joke.

Secondly, there's no joke. Apple really has NOT hired him---except for these commercials. Meta!

Thirdly, TC is publicizing the works of others. I can't recall ever seeing anything similar by a major star.

Fourthly, the scripts have Timothee identifying with "art," "beauty," and "fragile" creatures such as ladybugs. Well, isn't that special?! Such arrogance in a boyish voice!

Lastly, the incredulity at not being chosen along with the humiliation of having to implore---not attractive.

What's the next one (surely to debut during the Super Bowl)? Timmy---who will not be ignored!---shows up on the doorstep of Apple TV+'s CEO, ready to camp out?

Austin Butler may win that Oscar. Timothee is gonna push hard for the Bob Dylan film.

Forget the actors. Think about comparing some successful biopic to not successful.

Elvis. Freddie. Ray. Johnny Cash. Dynamic, charismatic, with varying anti-establishment behaviors.

Then you have mumbling genius Dylan, whose major personal struggle wasn't with drugs or sex or illness but with religion. Maybe Joan Baez.

Who is the expected audience? I'm a Boomer who thinks "If Not For You" is underappreciated, and I don't know if I'm interested.

R127: He already is. Last month he was spotted in NYC walking around with a guitar. He pulled the same stunt when he was with his father in the summer of 2021. He wants people think the Bob Dylan flick is still getting made. His Cabo shenanigans didn't help one iota.

If Wonka flops, Bob Dylan ain't ever happening.

Hollywood is a strange place, they are willing to throw millions of dollars at you for you to damage your career.
