Timothée Chalamet Shows Off New Hair Color at Bob Dylan Biopic Premiere in New York

Timothée Chalamet, aged 28, elevated the concept of method dressing by perfectly mimicking Bob Dylan's 2003 look at the New York premiere of A Complete Unknown, a Bob Dylan biopic slated for release on December 25. The star, who portrays a younger Dylan, stunned attendees with his transformation, arriving in a leather jacket over a red plaid shirt and scarf, mirroring Dylan’s style from the Sundance Film Festival event for Masked and Anonymous. Stealing the spotlight was Chalamet's sandy blond hair, crafted with a wig, which nodded to Dylan’s trademark locks during that appearance. This is prepared by SSP.

Chalamet's styling efforts received widespread attention, capturing even Dylan's own social media mention praising Chalamet as a "brilliant actor" capable of bringing his likeness to life. Dylan’s remarks not only acknowledged Chalamet's homage but also encouraged viewers to delve into Elijah Wald’s book Dylan Goes Electric for a compelling recount of the musician’s transformation during the 1960s.

The film — collaboratively written by director James Mangold and Jay Cocks — tracks Dylan's journey to stardom and features a diverse ensemble cast including Elle Fanning and Edward Norton. Dylan offered partial insight into the project, although he stayed uninvolved during production. However, conversations with Mangold provided essential guidance, reinforcing the film's authentic retelling of Dylan's iconic moments, notably from the Newport Folk Festival. Dylan’s positive feedback deeply moved Chalamet, who later expressed his gratitude on social media, highlighting the surreal nature of the experience.

Earlier, SSP reported that Donnie Wahlberg spoke out on family and Blue Bloods conclusion.
