It’s inevitable to experience a clash of ideas while filming movies, but an insider reportedly accused Timothée Chalamet of behaving like a diva on the set of the Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown.
This is a total shocker for many fans because they know the French actor as a quiet and down-to-earth guy. Another source confirmed this behavior. In any case, this remains a rumor and should be taken with a grain of salt.
Timothée Chalamet Is Accused Of Exhibiting Diva Behavior On Movie Set
In a post from In Touch Weekly, a source close to the outlet shared that Timothée Chalamet got into a heated argument with a staff member from the A Complete Unknown production.
He apparently got into a screaming match with a crew member. Everyone is walking on eggshells around him.
However, another insider contrasted this claim and told the same outlet that the French star won’t do anything as controversial as that. “Timothée is a quiet guy. He likes to keep to himself. He’s not being rude. He’s just very focused on the work at hand and wants to do the best job possible,” the source revealed.
Chalamet will be starring in James Mangold’s upcoming biographical drama film as Bob Dylan and the screenplay will be based on the 2015 book Dylan Goes Electric! by Elijah Wald. The cast also includes Elle Fanning, Edward Norton, and Monica Barbaro, to name a few.
The actor has not commented on the rumor yet, but it would be a shame if this was proven true. Many fans, especially the youngsters, look up to him, and many of his former collaborators, both cast and crew members, had great experiences working with him.
As with any rumor, this might be just another case of overreaction from the source. Conflict of ideas does happen on movie sets all the time, so until we get an official statement from Chalamet or the crew member, this remains just a social media buzz.

Actress Elle Fanning spoke with Glamour UK and revealed how Timothée Chalamet “worked so hard” for the upcoming film. The actor is expected to do some vocal performances, which is exciting for his fans.
It was great to form that relationship, with Timmy, he’s worked so hard for this part. He’s singing everything live, like he’s really going for it. It was very special to watch him do that. And he’s been a friend for a long time. So yeah, I’m just happy to be a part of it.
The actor has undergone a stunning physical transformation to look the part, and he has also worked on his voice and facial expressions. Many praised the actor’s initial performance on the newly-released trailer, which is seemingly a good sign that he is truly the right actor for the job.
A Complete Unknown is expected to hit theaters in December 2024.
