Timothée Chalamet, one of the most sought-after young actors in Hollywood, taking up a role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe would mark a significant career shift. With the star being known for his performances in films likeCall Me by Your NameandtheDunefranchise, the 28-year-old has built a reputation as a talented actor who thrives in emotionally complex, character-driven roles.
However, in an interview with theNew York Times, the actor opened up about the best advice he’d received fromLeonardo DiCaprioon making it in the film industry.
Well, Leonardo DiCaprio said to me, ‘No superhero movies, no hard drugs.’ Which I thought was very good. I follow them both! But the movie that made me want to act is a superhero movie, ‘The Dark Knight.’ If the script was great, if the director was great, I’d have to consider it.
Chalamet continued,“Heath Ledger‘s performance in that film was visceral and viral to me, and I now had the acting bug.”The 28-year-old may be inclined to listen to the advice he was given by DiCaprio. However, the door to him starring in a Marvel film has not been completely shut.
