Bob Dylan has been quite active on X, sharing his thoughts about the upcoming film A Complete Unknown.
“There’s a movie about me opening soon called A Complete Unknown (what a title!),” he wrote. “Timothee Chalamet is starring in the lead role. Timmy’s a brilliant actor so I’m sure he’s going to be completely believable as me. Or a younger me. Or some other me. The film’s taken from Elijah Wald’s Dylan Goes Electric – a book that came out in 2015. It’s a fantastic retelling of events from the early ‘60s that led up to the fiasco at Newport. After you’ve seen the movie read the book.”
Chalamet was quick to respond with excitement:
Floored.
I am so grateful.
Thank you Bob
Though Dylan helped with making A Complete Unknown, he hasn’t said much until now, and it will hit theaters on December 25.
Sometimes we forget how movies can bring stories to life in new ways.
The buzz around this is huge!
