Timothée Chalamet Transforms into Table Tennis Legend Marty Reisman for 'Marty Supreme'


Timothée Chalamet is proving his versatility as an actor once again, showing off an almost unrecognizable look while filming his upcoming movie, "Marty Supreme." On Monday in New York, the actor was spotted in full costume and makeup, embodying a character inspired by the legendary professional table tennis player Marty Reisman.

In the video from the set, Chalamet perfectly captures Reisman's iconic hairstyle and glasses, showcasing his ability to transform for a role. This new look adds to his reputation as Hollywood's chameleon, adapting to different characters with ease.

Chalamet's last notable role had him portraying Bob Dylan in a biopic, where he showcased his musical talent by singing and playing guitar. This latest project takes him in a different direction, diving into the life of a ping-pong champion known for hustling opponents in New York City.

While details about "Marty Supreme" are still under wraps, Reisman, often referred to as the "Wizard of Table Tennis," had a remarkable career spanning from the 1940s to the early 2000s. The scenes being filmed appear to depict the early days of Reisman’s career, hinting at an engaging story about a sports legend.

With Chalamet's impressive range and commitment to his roles, fans are eagerly awaiting the release of "Marty Supreme" to see how he brings this unique character to life.
