The Timothée Chalamet Podcast
His name is Timothée Hal Chalamet. You may call him Timmy, Timothy, Teem-o-tay (if you're French), Tian-cha (if you speak Chinese), or Doug (never Tim). ❤️ He grew up in an artists’ building in New York City listening to his parents’ favorite music: showtunes and French classics (but everybody knows he loves rap and hip-hop—and Raisinets, which is weird). Since then, he's won the 2025 SAG award for best actor, and been nominated for 4 Golden Globes and 2 Oscars. 🤍 We’d love to interview him someday, but for now, we talk about his films, his interviews, and anything that pops up on his IG. 💙
