First Look At Timothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan Has Surfaced

Production for the Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown has officially begun. Directed by James Mangold and starring Timothée Chalamet, fans can now catch a glimpse of the actor as he embodies the iconic American musician for the first time.

Set photos of the filming has surfaced online, showcasing Chalamet as Dylan walking around the streets of New York City in costume. The 28-year-old actor recently began filming the movie in his hometown. The film is slated to follow the musician’s career after he emerged onto the NYC folk scene in the 1960s after moving from Minnesota to New York. In the first look image of Chalamet on set, he can be seen layered up, wearing a scarf, hat and thick jacket, carrying a guitar case and backpack as he strolls through the Big Apple in New York as the young Bob Dylan.

The film also stars Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo, Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez, Nick Offerman as Alan Lomax and Boyd Holbrook as Johnny Cash alongside Chalamet. Edward Norton took over to play Pete Seeger after Benedict Cumberbatch had to drop out due to production delays. Just last year, Mangold spoke of the film in an episode of the Happy Sad Confused podcast, “It’s a kind of ensemble piece about this moment in time, the early ’60s in New York, and this 17-year-old kid with $16 in his pockets hitchhikes his way to New York to meet Woody Guthrie who is in the hospital and is dying of a nerve disease. He sings Woody a song that he wrote for him and befriends Pete Seeger, who is like a son to Woody, and Pete sets him up with gigs at local clubs and there you meet Joan Baez and all these other people who are part of this world.” There is no official release date for the film just yet.
