Hardly anyone can match the success of actor Timothée Chalamet. Maybe it has to do with the two career rules Leonardo DiCaprio once shared with Chalamet. He should stay away from two things. DiCaprio advised against certain substances and certain types of film.
One was one of Hollywood’s biggest young stars a quarter century ago, another is now. The two also appeared in front of the camera together in “Don’t Look Up”, but years ago Leonardo DiCaprio gave top star Timothée Chalamet useful advice for his career.
26-year-old Chalamet revealed this to the British “Vogue”. He gave the magazine a short glimpse of his turbulent life, which the Hollywood star said would speed “six million miles per hour”. He reported his first encounter with Leonardo DiCaprio in 2018. DiCaprio, 47, took the said occasion to reveal his personal career rule to his unofficial successor: “No hard drugs and no superhero movies”.
Maybe it helped, because the careers and life paths of DiCaprio and Chalamet are pretty comparable. Both made a lot of name in Hollywood at an early age and millions of people like them. Chalamet is the first person to appear on the cover of the print edition of the British “Vogue”. Regarded as possibly the most talented actor of his generation, Chalamet has also recently made fashion statements at the Venice Film Festival, where he appeared on the red carpet in a red, backless halter top.
Cinema viewers will be able to catch Chalamet in November in Luca Guadagnino’s coming-of-age film Bones and All. The cannibal flick is Chalamet’s second collaboration with the Italian filmmaker after 2017’s ‘Call Me By Your Name’. Actor in the program.
