Timmy is young Hollywoods highest paid actor after “Wonka” and “Dune 2”

“ Chalamet already gets to cash in on the box office riches he spun from visiting Arrakis and a world of pure imagination. The actor earned more than $8 million for “Wonka,” according to sources. Now, he’s getting a salary bump and looking at paydays in the double digits for leading roles in studio films. Warner Bros. and Legendary don’t have a contract yet for “Dune: Part Three,” but director Denis Villeneuve has been vocal about wanting to make it, so Chalamet’s salary could surge for future installments after the success of the sequel.”

Why can't Chalamet just die? You too OP.

He lacks much physical presence but I still thought he was pretty good in Dune.

I haven’t seen the Wonka thing because I fucking hate when Hollywood makes something that’s SUPPOSED to be mysterious into something that’s overexplained to absolute death. That has the feel of exploiting super fans, which usually ends up ruining the character. (Boba Fett, anyone?)

There is a group in the same age group. Tom Holland/Timmy/Austin Butler/Jacob Elordi/Barry Keoghan/Paul Mescal. Glenn Powell is a little older, at 35, but he’s being pushed right now too and is even mentioned in that article.

I saw the Ghostbusters trailer yesterday and was desperately trying to think of young actors in things people might actually know. Was surprisingly more difficult to make a list for this era than I think it would have been even a few years ago.

Like the article states, Tom Holland has never proven himself outside of the Spiderman franchise. In fact, everything he's done besides that has flopped. His career is not going anywhere.

Elrodi is too dull. Mescal has the same problem.

Keoghan is far too odd looking to become a big leading man.

Timmy, Austin and Charles Melton are the most interesting young actors right now.

But he’s leading the way for all the new young male stars, and has been since 2017.

R134 the film is focused on the events surrounding the atomic bomb. Created by Oppenheimer. It’s not the same type of biopic as Elvis, which is focused on the persons entire life.

Don’t argue with educated people.

In 2018, the musical biopic Bohemian Rhapsody, based on the life of Queen singer Freddie Mercury, became the highest-grossing biopic in history at the time.[15][16][17] In 2023, it was surpassed by Oppenheimer, based on the life of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the creation of the atomic bomb in World War II. [18]

Travolta led blockbusters that were not based on prior movies.

Wonka and Dune are established IP’s. These two film just happened to be released within a few months of each other and that’s why fans and Hollywood bigwigs alike are naively saying he’s the best thing to happen to the box office.

John Travolta was thr greatest superstar in the time when Grease and SNF were released. Every granny knew who he was. Now, with Timothee, the fraus in my office have no idea who he is. A 35 yo friend who went to see Dune, cause she is fan of the book, doesn't know his name, he is "that skinny kid from the Dune" Same with parents who brought kids to Wonka. He just lacks that star quality that made Travolta or Leo big stars overnight.

Somehow, no matter that HW puts him in big blockbusters (which will have big audience even if my aunt was in it), the public refuses to remember his name. Even the showmance with a member of Kardashian family didn't help.

R164: I can’t deny that he works his ass off for fame and will say and do anything for maximum exposure - wear a blouse, pretend date a Jenner, fuck Eiza Gonzalez in a pool.

It will be interesting to see how his career unfolds from here. Will he continue to pick projects that have a draw to disguise the fact that he’s not a draw himself or will he challenge himself with something new? The Dylan biopic is arguably “IP” given its subject. It already looks like a dreary biopic and it doesn’t like he’s disappearing into the role. Timothee playing Timothee yet again.

From the moment this relationship was announced, everybody said that it would end his career and that nobody would take him seriously anymore. The PDA got more painful with each outing. While I'm sure there were some people who skipped Wonka and Dune because of it, overall it didn't seem to have that much negative impact.

I feel like Timmy would have been a huge star in the 1980s. Even his causal style reminds me of 1986, like he wears his sunglasses at night kind of vibe. He would have easily fit in with Molly Ringwald and the brat pack gang, in fact he could have made a great Duckie if Jon Cryer didn't already exist. You cannot telll me you don't see the resemblance.

Chalamet's long-term outlook on his facial features means, right now, while he still has young appeal, he's gotta reel in the dough.

Seriously he's pre-Yoda now. Gravity and time will take care of that.

I'm not invested one way or another on the Love or Hate Chalamet rumble.

For me, however, and although his part was in a small, supporting role, in "Don't Look Up", I thought he put in the best performance.

For whatever reason my favorite actor Mark Rylance phoned it in.
