This Is Harder Than It Looks

In a recent video with comedian Druski, Timothée Chalamet playfully caught an air kiss from a performer and responded with amused delight. This moment is just one of many creative promotional appearances he’s been doing for his new film, Marty Supreme. He’s covered all the bases – from traditional interviews and a Vogue cover to YouTube appearances and getting celebrities to showcase the film’s merchandise on Instagram. He’s even staged a fake Zoom call with his marketing team! While it’s unclear if this energetic and obvious approach will translate to box office success or Oscar nominations, it’s clear that Chalamet is uniquely able to pull off such a memorable and unconventional press tour.

Watching Timothée Chalamet navigate interviews and appearances reveals how remarkably adaptable and enthusiastic he is. Since his award speech, he’s carefully crafted a unique and captivating public persona. Whether you admire him or not, there’s truly no one quite like him. While he sometimes seems a bit self-absorbed, he’s actually a very considerate and collaborative conversationalist. He doesn’t dominate the conversation with Jimmy Fallon, Druski, or anyone else; instead, he goes with the flow, whether it’s discussing other actors, eating breakfast cereal, or chatting about music like an old friend. It’s possible his youth plays a role – consider how uncomfortable Sydney Sweeney appeared during a silly sketch. But while other celebrities try to seem enthusiastic, Chalamet is the only one who fully commits. His natural, energetic stage presence shines through, no matter how much he tries to appear edgy. He clearly craves attention, and he’s refreshingly honest about it, refusing to pretend he doesn’t.

Watching actors navigate the awards season press circuit can feel painful, like a difficult test of endurance. Many seem desperate to escape the constant scrutiny and interviews. Timothée Chalamet, however, makes it all look effortless and enjoyable, even though it’s clearly not. While other actors, like Amanda Seyfried, are good at promoting their work by simply being themselves, Chalamet stands out due to his deep understanding of internet culture. He’s uniquely able to project confidence and even use it to his advantage. He knows how to connect with a wide range of people, which is helpful as he promotes his new film. He might be overwhelming at times, but at least he seems to be genuinely enjoying the process – and someone needs to!
