Hollywood’s premier twink thespian was at the center of a Timothée Calamity this week in Italy. Through no fault of his own (besides being highly stannable), Mr. Chalamet found himself facing an international incident at his own movie premiere.
This weekend, the actor hit the red carpet for his new romantic cannibal drama Bones and All, his second feature with director Luca Guadagnino following instant gay canon entry Call Me By Your Name.
It looked like a great time, while it lasted:

He struck his best movie star poses alongside Guadagnino and co-star Taylor Russell.

Though Chalamet is French-American, his CMBYN role has apparently made him beloved in the film’s native Italy. His fans descended on the event en masse hoping to get a glimpse of the star, causing a blockade.
In this video out of Variety, the crowd stretches as far as the eye can see in either direction:

The crowd reportedly became so large that local police eventually had to suspend all further red carpet activity, sending fans and many members of the press home for the night.
Before they dispersed, the actor got to thank his adoring public — from a safe distance, of course:

Rather than being too disappointed by being turned away, fans online seem to be using this moment as a movie star flex for their fave.
The boasts are all accompanied by Timmy fancams, of course:

Check out the trailer for the film that launched a thousand sudden uber rides home this weekend:

all i can say about him is that he has a certain beauty and hotness. not the greatest actor.

Nah. I have now watched Dune four times – for lack of anything else appealing amongst the few dozen options given – whilst slightly drunk and on Ambien, falling asleep on a 15-hour intercontinental flight (for the love of God, bring back supersonic planes…so miss the Concorde). And at least in that context, he is both my absolute dream guy, and quite a respectable actor.

Not sure what the “Sensitive Content” warnings were all about? The Sensitive Content videos were no different than the other… insensitive videos.

Oh lookey. A sea of mostly prepubescent girl fans. Shocking.

An exotic kind of beauty, gently arrogant, just androgynous enough to be intriguing, who can never be possessed. If he were a gay bottom, he’d be too perfect – the type who’d show up unannounced, make your dick his slave for a few hours, and then disappear again for a few months of dating some wealthy A-lister, sunning on yachts and dining at trendy restaurants.

Sounds lovely…
Man About Town
He wears a tank top to his movie’s premiere? Not to mention, based on what everyone else was wearing, in freezing weather? What is he, farblonjet?

I’m old enough to be his grandppapy, but I must confess. In an aesthetic sense, I find him breathtakingly beautiful.
Squeak
For me the classical, androgynous beauty of his face (the rest of him ain’t much) is quite negated by his attitude & style. It’s been downhill all the way since the lovely innocence of the CMBYN jamboree

Wonder if Armie tried to eat him?
He is rather tasty.
scotty
he my Kwisatz Haderach, treat him accordingly.
Caelestius
My take is the reverse of most posts here. I thought his acting in “The King” was fantastic, and fortunately, in his movies he doesn’t look like the hairless, god-of-orphaned-salamanders that he seems to play in real life.

I think he is just OK. I was unimpressed with the Call Me by whatever movie. Much ado about not much. Him feelling up armie was ok but other than that. Naw, much much better “gay” movies
As a culture we don’t have to fawn and be grateful for whatever “gay dregs” media throws at us.
I saw Bros and just wanted Billie Eichner to SHUT UP

Sometimes being a good or bad actor is subjective and a matter of opinion. You don’t pay a young actor the big bucks if they have no talent. He is only 26-years old, still many years of development and a lot of people think he is an amazing actor, and he is choosing smart roles. We’ll see what “Going Electric” brings to the table!!

A gay role launched his superstardom. Imagine had he been a gay actor. Would we have a young gay superstar who could get any role?
