UPDATE: Timothée Chalamet is making headlines for his bold decision in the upcoming film Marty Supreme, set to premiere in theaters on December 25, 2025. In a shocking revelation, co-star Kevin O’Leary disclosed that Chalamet insisted on revealing his bare a** in a pivotal scene, showcasing his commitment to authenticity in his craft.
This revelation comes after Marty Supreme received rave reviews at the 2025 New York Film Festival, where Chalamet’s performance has been hailed as one of his best yet. However, it’s not just his acting that has captured attention. O’Leary shared that despite initial plans for a body double, Chalamet was adamant about performing the scene himself. He dramatically stated, “No, it’s got to be my a**. I’m going to immortalize my a** on film in perpetuity,” according to an interview with US Weekly.
The scene in question involves O’Leary’s character, Milton Rockwell, asking Chalamet’s character, Marty, to drop his pants for a spanking with a paddle. Initially, director Josh Safdie was concerned that the scene lacked the necessary impact, as O’Leary appeared to be hitting Chalamet too softly. However, after some adjustments, O’Leary delivered a powerful take that was ultimately used in the film. “I wound up like a baseball bat, and I nailed his right cheek, and I think his eyeballs exploded out of his head, and that’s what you see,” O’Leary recounted, praising Chalamet as a “crazy trooper” for his dedication.
The film, which also stars notable actors such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A’zion, Tyler Okonma, Abel Ferrara, and Fran Drescher, is already generating buzz and anticipation ahead of its release. With Chalamet’s fearless approach to acting, Marty Supreme promises to be a landmark film, not only for its storyline but also for its daring performances.
As the premiere date approaches, fans and critics alike are eagerly waiting to see how Chalamet’s bold choices will resonate on the big screen. Stay tuned for more updates as this story develops.
