As a film enthusiast with a deep appreciation for sports stories, I’m thrilled to see table tennis finally getting its moment in the sun. For too long, this underrated sport has been overshadowed by its more popular cousin, tennis. But with Josh Safdie at the helm, and Timothée Chalamet starring in his upcoming biopic “Marty Supreme,” I have high hopes for this project.
Racquet sports typically enjoy a positive public image. For instance, John McEnroe provides humorous commentary for a high-school comedy series, Serena Williams engages in various activities beyond tennis, and even the table-tennis world has experienced a resurgence. While tennis remains a common denominator among these racquet sports legends, let’s not forget other games where you whack a ball with a racquet. Table tennis is once again gaining attention, this time due to Josh Safdie’s upcoming A24 film, “Marty Supreme.” The director, who previously collaborated with his brother on critically acclaimed films like “Uncut Gems” and “Good Times,” cast Timothée Chalamet to portray table-tennis icon Marty Reisman. A24 released a black-and-white image of the film’s title and subtitle, “Made in America,” with an emblazoned tennis ball. This marketing strategy plays on American pride as the film faces stiff competition from tennis.
